The Mighty Pines are a soul-inspired roots rock band influenced by the wide rivers and red-brick streets of St. Louis. Like the steady and strong trees from which they take their name, the band continues to grow in stature and sound, creating vast musical landscapes with their layered harmonies and thoughtfully crafted instrumentation. They generate a palpable vibe on their latest album, Late Last Night. Produced by Steve Berlin (Los Lobos), Late Last Night stretches out with a sonic spaciousness, sliding effortlessly from roots and folk ballads to rock and soul. It also showcases the band’s growth as songwriters, arrangers, singers, and musicians. The Mighty Pines are touring nationally and have supported renowned acts such as JJ Grey & Mofro, The Dead South, Railroad Earth, Martin Sexton, Fruition and Sam Bush.
Singer/guitarist Neil Salsich reached national acclaim on Season 23 of NBC's The Voice. He earned a four chair turn on his blind audition, and was coached by Blake Shelton & Kelly Clarkson and highly praised by coaches Chance the Rapper, Niall Horan and Reba McEntire.
The group is also an in demand studio band and recently recorded with Michael McDonald and Brian Owens. They are busy planning the third iteration of their homegrown festival, Pines Fest, taking place on August 24th, 2024 in Midtown St. Louis.

CORAL CREEK is a nationally acclaimed Colo-Caribbean Newgrass band featuring the original music of Chris Thompson. Inspired by the islands and the mountains alike, CORAL CREEK conjures a unique vibe, delivering big sounds and high-energy shows that appeal to audiences across the newgrass, rock and jamband spectrum. Drawing influence from legendary guitarists Jerry Garcia & Tony Rice, don’t be surprised when CORAL CREEK launches into a second line jam with tenor saxophone soaring over organ swells and a rolling banjo. Listen close and you might even hear some steel pan and coqie frogs.
CORAL CREEK was launched into the heart of the Colorado music scene with the release of THE ROAD AHEAD (2010), produced by Bill Nershi of the String Cheese Incident, followed up with an acoustic album 40 YEARS (2012), CORAL CREEK (2015) and FREE DOG (2018) – the latest albums both produced by Tim Carbone of Railroad Earth. The band’s latest album, FREE DOG, has all the lyrical imagery, tasteful harmonies and outstanding musicianship that you’ve come to expect from Colorado’s hottest up-and-coming band, once again transporting listeners from the heights of the Rockies to the sweet sands of the Caribbean Sea – hitting every honkytonk, bayou and beach bar along the way.
CORAL CREEK has played campgrounds, beach bars, concert halls and festival main stages across the US, Europe, UK and the Caribbean, including Revival Music Festival, Four Corners Folk Festival, Pagosa Folk & Bluegrass Festival, 80/25 Festival, UllrGrass Music Festival, Ozark Mountain Soul, Philadelphina International Arts Festival, Yarmonygrass as well as large public events and municipal concert series nationwide. The band has performed and recorded with music heroes like Peter Rowan, Sam Bush, Bill Nershi, Todd Sheaffer, Drew Emmitt, Tim Carbone, Andy Goessling, Vince Herman, Andy Thorn, Andy Hall, Roosevelt Collier, Jeff Austin and other heavy hitters in the newgrass / jamband scene.
