Papa Muse and The Lit Fuse

Described as "Indie World," Papa Muse blends rock and world music with catchy hooks and funky dance-able grooves. Papa Muse has been compared to the Talking Heads, Rusted Root, Paul Simon, Devo and Rush. It's danceable and intelligent music.  

The songs are polished and often move in different directions to make them unpredictable and fresh.  The lyrics are meaningful and often present an altruistic vision for humanity, deep yet relatable and easy to digest.

The live show is dynamic and interactive, so while the message behind the music can be deep and introspective, the live show is light, whimsical and fun. "I want to inspire a sense of community empowerment and affect positive change, but without sounding preachy, so I try to keep my live show light and fun while singing about what matters most to me."

Mr. Heartache

Mr. Heartache is a five piece band performing a stripped down, straight ahead brand of American roots music fronted by country music archivist Jim Schleich on vocals and acoustic guitar in conjunction with Los Angeles native Roy Berns on electric guitar, Lynn Lindsay on vocals. The backline consists of Scott McNitt on drums and Eric Huppert on the Fender electric bass.

Heavily influenced by the definitive sounds of Southern California country music of times past, Mr. Heartache weaves a tapestry of songs making forays into country blues, western swing, folk inspired ballads and spirited instrumentals that introduce new generations of listeners to classic material , keeping  the honky tonk flame burning brightly.

Serving up Americana from the golden era of country and western.
