Kyle Martin Band | Jen Tucker Band Dual Album Release Show

Kyle Martin performs at The Lost Church in Santa Rosa, promoting the release of his 3rd full length studio album, “Kyle Martin Band” recorded at Grammy Award-winning Prairie Sun Recording Studios in Cotati, produced by Kyle Martin & Chez Marolo.

Native to the North Bay, Kyle Martin is a singer-songwriter, performer, multi-instrumentalist and studio recording artist who has recorded in Sonoma County for 20 years. This post-alternative, genre-builder pulls from many different vintage-styles on a spectrum between exotic and iconic classic rock. It’s achieved with carefully arranged chord progressions, groovy rhythms, and a combination of improvised vocals and songwriting collaborations with engineer Chez and friend/bandmate Jen Tucker from a compilation of notebooks spanning decades of formulation.

Cold Moonlight, the 5th studio album from Jen Tucker is a soft tempo, alt-country collection of songs inspired by the people, places, and histories she experienced while traveling the American West and playing music in Occidental.

While her distant travels to the Dakotas, Pacific Northwest and Four Corners area were captured in songs on the album like “Streets of Durango,” “Cold Moonlight” and “Windriver,” locals might recognize several beloved West Sonoma County figures also mentioned on this album and throughout her catalog.

Kyle Martin’s songs sound similar to Dire Straits, Tom Waits, Neil Young, Eric Clapton, and John Hiatt.
Jen Tucker’s music draws comparisons to Neko Case, Gillian Welch, Loretta Lynn & Townes Van Zandt

Loud As Folk – every 2nd Thursday

featuring Joshua James Jackson (Album Release), Sebastian St James, Zöe Winter, and Spike McGuire

Loud As Folk is a hub of the west coast songwriting scene focused on highlighting emerging artists with distinct approaches to all genres of American roots music. In the process of bringing these acts together for performances, a beautiful community naturally formed with artists and audience members alike.

Joshua James Jackson is a multi instrumentalist and internationally touring singer songwriter from Oakland, CA. Triple J has had just about every musical role, from trumpet in an orchestra to rock n roll guitarist, bluegrass bassist to live sampling Dr. Phil on a handheld tv in a funk band, and everything in between. Music has taken Triple J to every corner of the USA and across the globe— just like a good fried chicken recipe. These days, JJJ serves up his stories and songs solo or with a band like a home cooked meal, complete with jokes, tears and (in the old days) hugs.

Spike McGuire is an internationally touring artist that has performed in 16 states and 5 countries, as well as a GraphTech Guitar Labs endorsed artist. McGuire has spent the last decade drawing parallels between the ethos of punk rock and the spirit of folk music by building community and engaging listeners with his message. He doesn’t claim to have the answers, but he has dedicated himself to traveling the world, asking the questions, and starting the conversations. On the rich spectrum of folk music, Spike resides decidedly closer to Pete Seeger than Peter, Paul, and Mary.

Sebastian Saint James’ years of self promoted touring, grinding it out on sidewalks, in bars, clubs, theaters, on festival stages and just about anywhere else someone can make a buck playing original music is starting to pay off. His work ethic and drive is making this North Bay native a fast rising star beyond local circles and his ever growing fan base gives him no reason to slow down. Inspiration and his continued pursuit to share messages of love and longing mixed with an edge that stems from part vintage – part modern approach to writing and production there’s no telling, but the best is yet to come for this young writer.

Zöe Winter is a singer-songwriter out of West Marin with a mellifluous voice and an air of irreverence from headstock to her hat-brim.
