AUTUMN HOLLOW-Fresh off their triumphant return to the Boston music scene – where the Boston Globe praised their "unalloyed rock 'n roll" and their 2022 EPThrow the House earned them Boston Music Award nominations – Autumn Hollow aren't just picking up where they left off. They're burning the map entirely with Say No More, an album that proves sometimes the longest road leads to the boldest destination. The resulting sound draws from a deep well of influences – the storytelling of Bob Dylan and John Prine, the sonic adventurousness of Wilco, and the raw emotion of Frightened Rabbit.
Alex Garzone crafts a captivating sonic landscape, weaving together shimmering guitar melodies and hazy vocals. His distinctive sound draws inspiration from the likes of Lou Reed, Pavement, and Kurt Vile, while forging a distinctive path all its own.
Providence, Rhode Island’s Jake Hunsinger & The Rock Bottom Band are self-proclaimed history buffs whose deep appreciation for the past shapes their progressive take on American roots music.

Hunsinger crafts unique chord patterns and song structures rooted in generations of American songwriting while voicing a distinctly Gen Z/Millennial perspective. His vocal style traces country music’s evolution from Vernon Dalhart to Garth Brooks. Similarly, Wedge, a jazz-trained drummer, delves into the history and cultural significance of his craft, adding depth to the band's sound.
