Andi Rae & the Back River Bullies:
Brooklyn-based Singer/Songwriter Andi Rae Healy has been a mainstay on New York City’s indie-country scene for over a decade. Her newest LP, Last Time I Checked This Was a Free World and I Wasn't Anybody's Girl, was released in April 2020. Coinciding with the 100th Anniversary of Women's Suffrage, the title track is an anthem to girl power and sexual freedom. Produced by fellow Brooklyn musician Jeff Litman, Last Time I Checked… draws its diverse musical influences from classic country crooners like Patsy Cline and Tammy Wynette; the 60s influenced, swinging pop of April March and Nancy Sinatra; and the raw emotional honesty of contemporary singer/songwriters Aimee Mann, Lissie, and Sheryl Crow.
Bucky Hayes is a Brooklyn-based singer-songwriter who was born in Nashville and raised in both Central Florida and Atlanta, Georgia. In his early teens, he discovered the Grateful Dead, bought his first guitar at age 14, and saw an amazing Allman Brothers show; the course of his life was changed forever. In his late teens and early 20s, his love of traveling led him to doing one full summer of street performances in many different cities as he and his buddy crisscrossed the country. Bucky developed a love for songwriting at the open mic at the famed Eddie’s Attic in Decatur, GA, and in 2005 love and adventure led him to NYC.
