THANKS BUDDY
Thanks Buddy are friends playing for the love of it.  Rock-n-roll sprinkled with Americana, Punk and Folk. Established in Santa Cruz, California in 2013

BAD MAPS
And out of the Santa Cruz mountains slides Bad Maps, whose sound goes far beyond what you would expect of their western style instrumentation. (Four string banjo, lap steel guitar, upright bass, guitar and drums.) On the heels of their debut album “The Lost”, with country tinged songs injected with healthy amounts of soulfulness and indie rock weirdness, you just might be swayed into dancing along to Zachary Handl’s dark poetic lyrics.

DIGGIN' TRAILS
Diggin Trails is a five-piece Americana rock n' roll band hailing from Santa Cruz, California. With a diverse lineup of talented musicians, the band blends elements of country, rock, bluegrass and punk to create their unique and captivating sound.
