These are the types of stories and songs that people all around the world truly want to hear, even if we’re somewhat taught and trained to believe the opposite is true. You start singing along quickly with a track like “People Like You” because you can FEEL the spirit it has, the uplifting energy it provides, and the genuine SOUL within it, you dig?' -SBS studios

'‘People like you make the world worth living in’ resounds and repeats, hopefully appearing to hit the scene at just the right moment for many listeners. A wonderful highlight for this season, and a fine reminder of the ability and presence of songwriter and musician Scott Kirby''.

The Flying Beets


 
 
Formed in late Spring of 2022, The Flying Beets' music showcases a maturity and depth that belies their short existence. Fronted by guitarist/vocalist Nathan Waller, a popular DFW-based singer-songwriter known for his extraordinary vocal range and powerful delivery, the band is rounded out by bassist DL Cross (The Troumatics) and drummer Kenn Scott (Birthday Suit, "Raphael" of the original 1990s Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles films).
 
Drawing on many rock influences, from The Beatles to Nirvana, the band's music combines catchy hooks, driving tempos, and a pop sensibility that can easily find a home on any indie-rock fan's playlist.  In conjunction with the recent Fall 2023 release of their first single, "Maybe Baby," The Flying Beets were nominated for "Best New Band" in Ft. Worth by Fort Worth Weekly Magazine.  The band continues to write, record, and perform, and look forward to the release of their debut EP in 2024. 
 
The Flying Beets release their 2nd single from their upcoming EP, titled "Radio Song" recorded at Fort Worth Sound with Bart Rose.

The song showcases the amazing vocals of Nathan Waller on a fun and upbeat canvas of sweet melodious rhythmic thunder.

Sluka


 
 
"Inspired, emotional, professionally produced, melodic, well aware of and resigned to the harsh realities of life, and yet ultimately... extraordinarily... hopeful." -ILMC  
 
Christopher Sluka first rose to prominence in New York City in the 1980s playing alongside bands like Tears For Fears and Simple Minds. In 1989 he put out his first full length album, the Meldac released Emotional Battlefield. Despite hailing from the United States he saw the most success in Japan and Europe. ​ ...but forget all that... ​ Sluka in its latest existence is reformed, reimagined, and perhaps the most exciting of its life. The latest album, Ready To Connect, is proof of their progressive, diverse, and eclectic style. Often difficult to describe, Sluka's sound aims to reinvent music, and blur the edges of genres. All Access Music warns not to oversimplify Sluka as rock, "the often lush, ethereal sounds are a juxtaposition of elements found in classical, pop, gothic, progressive and alternative rock, which has resulted in a very difficult-to-define genre all its own... 'Enigmatic rock,' perhaps…?" ​ Slate Magazine describes Sluka as "slightly experimental with a heavy dose of the dramatic thrown in. It generally takes more than a quick listen to appreciate, so take a little time when you do." ​ And while their music ignores boundaries, they truly shine live. Shows are energy-filled, mesmerizing moments in time, entrancing the audience through their anthemic songs, theatrics, and huge wall-of-sound bridges. With lights, smoke, effects, and theatre, Sluka aims to bring a stadium size show to any size venue.

RJ Archer & the Painful Memories


Primarily inspired by blues-influenced rock music from the 1960’s and 1970’s, RJ Archer & the Painful Memories were formed in July 2019 when Richard Archer (guitar, vocals) received a prize of some studio time in a songwriting competition. Two long-term friends Roger James and Ben Kingsbury agreed to help with the recording session, playing bass and drums respectively. The results were so good that they decided to make the band a permanent thing.


Recording with just a few days of studio time scheduled across the next two years, the band completed a debut album ‘Hot Mess’ in September 2021 to an enthusiastic critical response, with Rock & Roll Circus citing a “"A 60's R&B vibe, fused with a more contemporary feel" and Robs Raw Music hearing "Powerful and tough Blues/Rock and dare I say an infusion of punk"!

With acclaimed live sets at the Cambridge Salty Dog Blues Festival and Six Six Bar under their belts and a growing reputation as a killer live act, their second album ‘Horseplay!’ was released to more acclaim in September 2023 with Music For All proclaiming it as a “practically perfect album” and comparisons being drawn to everyone from MC5 to Grand Funk Railroad to Dr.Feelgood!!

The band have since expanded to a four piece with the addition of Marc Ritchie on drums and Ben moving to second guitar. They are currently working on new songs for a new album expected for release late 2024.

Michael Nero

 


Michael Nero is a South Texas singer-songwriter who writes and performs from a life that’s been “rode hard and put up wet”... the trade-off being years of songwriting material.

Since he is comfortable in multiple American roots genres, his music has been described as being somewhere East of Memphis and West of Nashville. So, he guesses that he is technically an Americana artist. But Blues, both acoustic and electric, has played such a major role in his musical development, he does not suppose he could ever completely erase it’s fingerprint off any thing he does.
