Stereo Rodeo
Whenever I heard the name “Rusted Root” for some reason I thought of the group as a reggae outfit. Well, that’s not what we’ve got here at all. Don’t get me wrong, I like reggae, but it can be limited – and this seems to be a band who recognize no boundaries or limitations.

Cycles
Escherbach are set to open up a show at Krptonite on Sunday with Clark Plays Guitar closing things out. It seems a great opportunity to have a look at their debut CD. Remember, you should be able to pick this one up when you see them Sunday night.

Flat As A Pancake
Head East are going to be in the area (Logan’s in Freeport) this Saturday. They are no strangers to the Rockford area having played here a lot in the 1970’s and beyond. Still, their visits aren’t as frequent these days and seem a great opportunity to have a look back at one of their classic albums.
