Ghost-Note (ft. MonoNeon)
Multi-Grammy Award winning artists Robert Sput Searight and Nate Werth take percussion out of the shadows and into the spotlight with their new project, Ghost-Note. World renowned for their ongoing catalog with Snarky Puppy, this dynamic duo is an instrumental explosion like you’ve never heard before — prepare yourselves for a neck breaking and booty shaking night that will keep you on your feet all night long.
Yotam Silberstein
Yotam Silberstein has toured as a leader in major clubs and jazz festivals in Europe, Japan, South America, Asia and the US and has received high praise for his performances. Having performed with the world’s premier talent, Yotam has honed his craft with precision, finesse and the innate artistic touch. Both the critics and his fans await the release of his new album The Village on Jazz & People in January.
Elise Trouw
Prodigiously talented at just 18 years old, San Diego native and mult-instrumentalist Elise Trouw recorded all of the instrumental and vocal tracks herself for her debut album Unraveling, which she released earlier this year on her own independent label.
Ron-Artis II
Hawaii-based guitarist/singer/songwriter Ron Artis II has been living in music for as long as he can remember. “Soul, Soul, Soul” best describes Ron’s sound, though his music covers the genres of blues, rock, R&B, jazz, and even Flamenco. He has worked with the likes of Mick Fleetwood, Booker T Jones, and Doyle Bramhall II.
Lucy Woodward
Lucy Woodward’s Bang is her first release on GroundUP Music, the breakthrough indie label started by Michael League. Lyrically, the record is Woodward’s most dramatic, offering moments of both melancholia and wild abandon. The unfolding romantic twists and turns Woodward embraces on Bang is matched by the dramatic fits in her music
Mark Lettieri
Mark Lettieri is a guitarist, composer, and producer from Fort Worth, TX, best known as a member of Snarky Puppy since 2009. Proficient in a multitude of styles, he records and performs in virtually every genre of popular music with both independent and major-label artists, as well as composing and producing original music under his own name. Lettieri has spent time on the road with neo-soul icon Erykah Badu, and is an in-demand session guitarist who’s worked with the likes of David Crosby, Snoop Dogg, and Eminem.
