Rubber Clown Car

Don't be fooled by the name, the Rubber Clown Car band plays music with a serious message.  With their latest CD titled "Jesus is not a Weapon," there is no doubt where this band stands, which would explain the sort of 1960s sound.

David Rosenfield

Born and raised on the West Coast, David Rosenfield's compositions still retain the Northwest style of independent folk rock, although he is now based out of Florida.  His lyrics remind the listener of what songwriting really is: poetry.

El Gitano

El Gitano's music is a little hard to define, though he describes it as "World Music/"Circus Music"/Hip Hop."  It definitely makes for a fun listen.

Jeff Gutman

If there is one thing that San Fransisco consistently produces, it's great indie songwriters, and Jeff Gutman is certainly no exception.  His fifth album, "Through The Night" works great lyrics in with powerful emotions.

In case there is any doubt, this is definitely rock.  Listening to them is like hearing a cross between Motley Crue, Alice Cooper, and KISS.
