TIM ROSS is a singer/songwriter/guitar slinger who hails from BC's East Kootenay region. Powered by overdriven Gretsch guitars, his songs range from rock and blues to rockabilly and cowboy songs while revealing his humour and his love of the land, people and animals that make up the horsebacked Eden of the rural ranch. http://www.buffalohead.ca

DESERT RADIO - With an original combination of classic rock, southern rock and Americana, Desert Radio is the soundtrack of a road trip to Juarez in a '68 Dodge with Merle Haggard, The Who and the Heartbreakers all playing on the mix tape stuck in the dashboard deck. Their song "February Day" was featured on Budweiser.com, became the number one ranked Americana song in the history of Garageband.com, and was used by NASCAR in a video tribute to Dale Earnhardt Sr that was broadcast throughout North America. http://www.myspace.com/desertradio

The PERNELL REICHERT BAND is a Vancouver-based trio whose music has been described as alt folk, alt country, acid country, country punk or cow punk. Their live act features fast folky songs, electric slide guitar, foot stomping banjo and witty banter with the audience. http://www.pernell.ca

WEATHERED PINES - With influences such as Neil Young, Elvis Costello and Gram Parsons, Weathered Pines blends bottom-of-the-bottle country with a hint of rock ‘n’ roll grit and jangle. This has led them to be equally as likely to appear on a bill next to country sweethearts Carolyn Mark or Jenny Whitely as they are next to total rockers Vancougar or the Tranzmitors. http://www.weatheredpines.com
