We are very much looking forward to this year’s event.\n— Tim Bruer\, Director of Keep Wisconsin Warm/Cool Fund \nflannelfest.com \nMiles Nielsen and the Rusted Hearts\nFor Miles Nielsen\, every experience\, every conversation\, every dream is a potential song in the making. Miles’s songs breathe with a sense of yearning and ownership. You want to have another record\, another song- you want to hit rewind…you want to know more about this world created in song by Mr. Nielsen A captivating wordsmith\, instrumentalist\, and creator of hooks- rare indeed\, but present in the person of Miles Nielsen. There are very few people writing music that makes you immediately wish there was “more”- another song to make you turn up the volume \, another nugget of melody or lyric that you can find some part of to make your own. Gifts like Miles’s come along very infrequently\, and one can only hope that his ability to be so “in the now” -listening for the songs spoken in the everyday world\, will continue to grow. Then maybe that “more” we are looking for\, will be given to us all… in the songs of Miles Nielsen. \nmilesnielsen.com \nThe Mascot Theory\nThe Mascot Theory can be described as a high-energy dose of toe-tapping Americana folk-country rock drenched in tight harmonies spewing lyrics of love\, loss\, regret\, death\, and hope. They balance on an alternative folk influence and pull it together with a rootsy bluegrass blended Americana feel to give something that fits alongside their counterparts\, but also has enough freshness to it to give it a unique spin and create their own sound as well\, with a sonic backbone of 4-part harmony swells. Along with a 2017 WAMI (Wisconsin Area Music Industry) win for Best Male Vocalist (Erik Kjelland) and a nomination for Best Americana/folk artist\, The Mascot Theory has won 22 MAMA (Madison Area Music Association) awards including back to back 2016 and 2017 Artist of the Year awards. \nthemascottheory.com \nBeth Kille Band\nAt first glance\, you may not know what to make of them….the farm boy\, the intellectual\, the ex-Marine\, all backing up a wild-haired\, shoot-from-the-hip spirited woman. But then the show begins\, and you know you’re about to be wrapped in the arms of a cohesive unit bonded in the kinship of music. The four members of the Beth Kille Band -Michael Mood (bass\, backing vocals)\, Tony Kille (drums)\, Michael Tully (guitar\, backing vocals) and Kille herself (guitar\, mandolin\, vocals) – have amassed some impressive accolades. In addition to numerous songwriting recognitions\, Kille grabbed one of her 19 Madison Area Music Association (MAMA) Awards when she was named “Artist of the Year” in 2010 and Tully snagged the highly-competitive “Guitarist of the Year” Award in 2014. Their style can best be described as Americana Rock but these dynamic performers can play everything from folk to funk to in-your-face rock. \nbethkille.com \nWell Known Strangers\nWell-Known Strangers has been entertaining Midwest audiences with their cello infused\, alternative pop/rock sound. Members Joe Adamek (acoustic guitar)\, Betsy Ade (lead vocals\, guitar)\, Sacia Jerome (cello\, background vocals)\, Theodore Koth (lead guitar\, background vocals) Roger Gower (drums/percussion) and John Kulas (bass guitar) just released their new EP “Path Away” on May 4th and radio stations around the country are spinning & streaming their single “Sidewalk”. Together\, the band members have an amazing mix of musical knowledge and education that provides a unique sound that is reminiscent of familiar of music from the ‘90s while being expressively groundbreaking and melodically rich. They have been humbled by their success and performing with acts that include Blind Melon\, Blue October\, Candlebox\, and many more. While Ade and Adamek do most of the songwriting\, it’s the band’s creative spark and sonic diversity that are the driving force behind their sound. \nwellknownstrangers.com \nDriveway Thriftdwellers\nStarting out as a few guys who just wanted to play some Flying Burrito Brothers tunes\, the Driveway Thriftdwellers have emerged as a top original act in Wisconsin’s Country and Americana music scenes. Named 2017 WAMI Country Artist of the Year\, the Thriftdwellers have toured the past year in support of their critically acclaimed debut album “Cutover Country\,” named a top 10 Milwaukee area album of 2016 by the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel declared the Thriftdwellers’ 2017 Summerfest performance a “Best Of” performance for the festival\, and called the band a must see live act for Summer 2017. \nthriftdwellers.com \nKurt Gunn and Amanda James\nWisconsin natives Kurt Gunn & Amanda James have been writing and performing introspective\, folk-inspired music together throughout the midwest since 2015. Kurt has released 5 solo albums over the course of the last decade with Amanda adding harmonies. The duo is currently working on their anticipated debut album …and a band name. Stay tuned… \nkurtgunn.com \n
