THE HUNDRED ACRE WOODS: Formed in the latter half of 2009, Philadelphia-based The Hundred Acre Woods aims to convey a message that is both young and old – a blending of the honesty and sincerity of traditional folk music with the raw energy and drive of punk rock. (Check out our review of their latest EP here!)
STEADY HANDS: Steady Hands began as a solo project of Sean Huber in the Winter of 2012. In favor of the simplicity and rawness of a sole honest voice and acoustic guitar, he started thrashing his way through Philadelphia bars and basements, breaking a lot of strings in the process. That summer he released his first EP, "Not Many Of Us Left," employing a strong group of talented friends to record. By the end of the year, Huber brought the gang back together, adding producer Brandon Bost to create "The Libertines," released February 2013 via Lame-O Records. Steady Hands continues on thrashing through basements and clubs with intention, bringing honest punk music just as pretty as it is dirty.
FORMER BELLE: Former Belle was born in a suburban basement just outside of Philadelphia. During their 2011-2012 run of shows, Former Belle played alongside the likes of Owen, Fences, Colour Revolt, River City Extension, Allison Weiss, Illinois, Yarn and more. After a 6-month runaway retreat to Boston, they embarked on a five-week European tour spanning 7 different countries. In 2012, singer Bruno headed back into the studio with Chris Radwanski to finish tracking Former Belle's debut full length, 'Cathedral' which was released last February. Former Belle is currently working on a B-sides EP that is aimed for a summer release date with more information coming soon.
