The beginnings of Brooklyn-based trio The Lone Bellow flowed from founding member Zach Williams pen as a response to personal tragedy following his wife's temporary paralysis after a horse-riding accident. When she thankfully made a full recovery, the couple moved to New York, where Williams turned his heartfelt songs into a full-fledged band with the addition of Kanene Donehey Pipkin and Brian Elmquist.

Bluegrass folk band Trampled by Turtles formed in 2003 in Minnesota and have since released nine studio albums, the latest being 'Life Is Good on the Open Road' in 2018. A contrast between emotional songwriting and hard-hitting rock beats, it's a welcome comeback for the band as they hit the road on tour!
