South Filthy - You can’t quarantine these slippery suckers... South Filthy will treat you to a country ballad, then slap you silly with a 50s rocker complete with backup "eeews" and "aaahs", then bash in your door with a Chester Burnett blues stomp, with the dirtiest, nastiest wish-I-had-a-bar-of-Ivory-soap kinda trash harp that only Walter Daniels can truly pull off.
Chili Cold Blood - Black & Blues Cowboy Metal
Gin Palace - 'This is Rock 'n' Roll at it's basest, it's most thrilling and elemental - the purest spirit of adrenalised garage fury' - KERRANG!
Honkeyfinger - Hotwiring the primordial freak rock genes of Beefheart, Blue Cheer, ZZTop, and Black Sabbath; Honkeyfinger boils it all back down to the bones of the country blues - only to soup it back up to blistering levels of fuzz riff mayhem.
Soledad Brothers - Idiosyncratic, imperfect, soulful, and fierce, the Soledads' music is punk-rock attitude melded with Southern country fish fry, all-day sidewalk jamming, and White Panther power. It sounds like John Lee Hooker on an amphetamine jag.
Clambake - They're singing the tough shit blues.
Hasil Adkins - I'm sorry, Mr. Haze is out to Hunch. He said he'd hope to be back from hunchin' around Dark-thirty, Dark-forty-five.
The Black-Eyed Snakes - There is a neighborhood in Duluth called Central Hillside. If anything depraved, tragic or just plain bad happens in this town, you can bet it will happen there...
Ghostwriter - A dark, swampy sound as abrasive as it is vulnerable and a live show that reaches total abandonment.
Jawbone - The Dang Blues from Detroit Michigan.

Dooley Wilson - Thee most super-bluesitatious old-time mother-for-ya!
Black Moses - No frills and spills - Just a good old fashioned Horse Fuck.
Petit Vodo - A one-man rock'n'roll circus. He plays a battered guitar, a few drums, the harmonica, fiddles with radio waves and sings the blues, all at the same time!
The Blues Experimentation Society - Nobody can take me down.. I'm a rebel mutha' trucka'
Catweezel - Catweezel make homemade magic pie!
Bob Log III - When Bob Log III was a child, he lost his left hand in a boating accident. It was soon replaced with a monkey paw, and a new guitar style was born.
Bob Log III - Japan loves Bobby!
Johnny Dowd - putting an X-ray to the underbelly of Americana.
