A self taught musician with an unorthodox approach to songwriting, Imas cobbles together themes on life experience and social commentary.

Mean Mary

Award-winning musician/writer and fan favorite (over 10 million views on her YouTube videos), Mean Mary, literally grew-up in music. She evolved from a child prodigy who played for tips on the streets of Nashville (“startling talent” said the Tennessean) to a seasoned performer and headliner of over 4000 festivals and concerts (“the voice of a ragged Angel combined with the banjo playing of the Devil” says No Depression).

Deering Banjo’s named her their Goodtime Ambassador, and Janet Deering describes her banjo playing as giving her “chills.” Equally versatile on guitar, fiddle, and 8 other instruments, Mary is known internationally for her lightning-fast fingers, haunting vocals, and intricate story songs. As a high-energy performer that thrives on variety and as a songwriter that chooses unusual subject matters, anything from ghost pirates to demon guitars could romp through a Mean Mary show.

Mean Mary (Mary James), a Florida native now based in Nashville, began life as a musical prodigy—could read music before she could read words and co-wrote songs at age five. By age seven she was proficient on the guitar, banjo, & violin, and entertained audiences across the US with her vocal and instrumental skills. Her life has been one long road show interspersed with TV, radio, and film.

Matthew Sabatella and theRambling String Band

Matthew Sabatella and the Rambling String Band bring their multimedia show to the Luna Star Cafe. “American Heritage Music: From Plymouth Rock to Rock & Roll” is a 90-minute multimedia stage show that celebrates the music of America. With vocals, guitar, banjo, fiddle, mandolin, bass fiddle, and an array of beautiful projected images, Matthew Sabatella and the Rambling String Band take audiences on a journey that connects traditional folk songs, spirituals, fiddle tunes, Appalachian music, ragtime, blues, rhythm & blues, jazz, old-time country, bluegrass, and early rock and roll. Audiences sing along to familiar favorites and enjoy stories of how the music came to be. Since before the United States declared independence, songs, instruments, and musical styles were brought to the New World by British colonists, African slaves, and immigrants from other parts of the world. New songs and genres emerged from the encounters between these diverse people and the unique American experience itself. As America changed, grew, and pushed its boundaries, so did the music. This is American heritage music. This is your birthright. Own it.

MALCOLM HOLCOMBE
On April 6, 2015, to commemorate his 20 year musical career milestone, underground folk legend Malcolm Holcombe released The RCA Sessions. The set has international digital distribution through Proper Music Group.

Spanning the years 1994 to 2014, The RCA Sessions comprises 16 cuts in a CD/DVD retrospective that includes tracks from each of his previous 10 full length albums and 1 EP. Unlike the usual anthology of original recordings, Holcombe re-recorded the selected songs at the legendary RCA Studios in Nashville, TN in the fall of 2014. Included is the live performance favorite, “Mouth Harp Man”, which is exclusive to this release, as well as well as the popular tracks “Goin’ Home”, “Who Carried You”, and a very special duet with Irish folk great, Maura O’Connell, of Holcombe’s classic, “A Far Cry From Here”.

The band members, who have all frequently performed with Malcolm in the studio as well as for live performances, are: Jared Tyler (dobro, electric-guitar, lap steel, vocals); David Roe Rorick ( upright bass, arco), Tammy Rogers (fiddle, mandolin, vocals), Ken Coomer (drums, percussion), Jellyroll Johnson (harmonica), and Siobhan Maher Kennedy (vocals).

To represent Holcombe’s live performance range- from the intimate nature of solo acoustic, to the much lauded duo configuration with long-standing multi-instrumentalist Jared Tyler, to the energy and intensity of his full band shows- the CD/DVD set includes all of the above-mentioned musical configurations. Cut as live performances in-studio, these tracks capture the spirit of Holcombe’s incendiary concert performances and timeless songwriting. As this is the first time Malcolm Holcombe has released a DVD performance, it is sure to become a much appreciated addition to both long time fans, as well as the perfect introduction for the uninitiated. The RCA Sessions is not an end, but a culmination of work that spotlights the artistic mastery of one of the most unique and irreplaceable musicians working today in the contemporary folk scene.
