Described as one of the best acoustic pickers on the scene today, Cary Morin brings together the great musical traditions of America and beyond like no other artist. With deft fingerstyle guitar and vocals, he crafts a unique style often characterized as acoustic Native Americana with qualities of blues, bluegrass, folk and more.
Crow tribal member and son of an air force officer, Morin was born in Billings, Montana. He spent the bulk of his youth in Great Falls, where he cut his teeth picking guitar standards at neighborhood get-togethers, before relocating to Northern Colorado. There, his musical career hit the ground running with The Atoll, a band he founded in 1989 and that toured nationally
Cary has won numerous awards for his work, particularly for his 2017 release, Cradle to the Grave.He is the recipient of the 2018 Independent Music Awards for Best Blues CD, a 2018 International Songwriting Competition Honorable Mention, a 2018 Native Arts and Cultures Fellowship, and many others.
Grayson Capps, noted by NPR’s Mountain Stage for his “unbridled energy and authenticity,” hails from Fairhope, Alabama though he spent many years as an artist based in New Orleans.
American Songwriter declares, “Take the poetry of Townes Van Zandt, combine with Steve Earle’s edgy attitude and stir with a little cup of the bayou-blues (think Howlin’ Wolf) and you start to get a taste of Capps’s scrumptious gothic gumbo.”
In Alabama, he teamed up with Will Kimbrough, Sugarcane Jane, and Corky Hughes to host a weekly songwriters’ night that proved to be so much fun it resulted in a pair of collective albums released under the name Willie Sugarcapps. His latest CD, Scarlett Roses, is making waves on the Americana scene.
Sugarcane Jane is Anthony Crawford and Savana Lee —Americana’s husband-wife duo from Alabama’s Gulf Coast. Between them, they have decades of rich musical experience: Anthony’s an in-demand multi-instrumentalist and producer who has worked with such notables as Neil Young, Steve Winwood, and Dwight Yoakam. The music they make together is simple and direct, rooted in country and rock, and anchored by their sweet and soulful harmonies.
Sugarcane Jane were recently named 2019 Music Artist of the Year (The Southland Music Line) and just finished touring the Northeast with their band, The Bucket Fillers, as support act for Dwight Yoakam.
Their latest release and first ever live album, aptly titled LIVE – was performed and recorded at Fairfield Studios in Shreveport, Louisiana with The Bucket Fillers in September of this year and was released on November 1, 2019.
