RJ McCARTY
"LIKE THE ALLMAN BROTHERS, THE AVETT BROTHERS, AND THE WOOD BROTHERS HAD ANOTHER BROTHER!"
RJ McCarty is a force of music. Intricate folk/americana-inspired songwriting supported by a diverse variety of instrumentation lays ground for gritty, authentic vocals to paint over; which brings to life a surreal-yet-familiar world that exists within us all.
RJ cut his teeth as a kid in the music scene, and has lately been touring internationally in England, Canada, and the United States as an original act in support of his newest release "Tear Back The Sheets": a 7-track record, upon which he played every instrument.
He can also be found touring as a multi-instrumentalist for the critically-acclaimed psychedelic folk band, The Slambovian Circus of Dreams.
He draws inspiration from the flowing, playful vocals of Van Morrison, to the deep-rooted, soulful dirt and heart of Sister Rosetta Tharpe; as well as the world and phenomena surrounding and within them. Toss in Dr John's ivory keys, shapeshifting guitar-slingin' that bends with the music, and an old Hammond organ that will lift you off your seat -- it all comes together for a dynamic live show!

PEET JACKSON

Introducing: Peet Jackson

Peet Jackson’s musical influences were passed down the generations from his Irish and Ukrainian roots. He honed and developed his musical sound and production skills at a London University where Peet gained a 1st Class Music degree.

Never happier than traveling the country gigging, Pete’s 2nd album ‘Finding My Way’ is a fabulous new collection of his original songs going back to his Celtic roots. This new work still retains his raw and utterly soulful intensity as anyone who has seen his live shows can verify.
His debut album ‘Light and Shade’ contained 10 original songs and was released in 2022. It received critical acclaim in the music press and radio airplay by the BBC and commercial stations.
