Patrick Dethlefs

(Pronounced DET-Lefs)

Patrick Dethlefs songwriting crests like a humble Townes Van Zandt, innocent of his own haunting melodies and lyricism. Dethlefs new release "Beauty In The Unknown" offers folk Americana with effortless sincerity at a time when many acts strive purposefully to revive the stripped-down feel of a musical history long past.

Heavy Diamond Ring:

Twelve years after starting the indie-folk giants Paper Bird, Sarah Anderson (vocals, trumpet) and Paul DeHaven (guitar, vocals) embark on their latest collaboration, Heavy Diamond Ring. Drawing from 70s FM folk rock and their distinct brand of open-hearted songwriting, HDR harnesses their strong and proven partnership towards refreshing new heights. Led by Andersons smooth-as-honey vocals and DeHavens rugged guitar chops the band also features knockout players Blake Stepan (bass, vocals), Mike Lang (keys, vocals) and Orion Tate (drums). HDR has an all-American vintage sound that conjures visions of long road trips across vast scenery. Their sound is expansive with a commanding charm that will stir you, make you smile, tear you down, and lift you up.
