Miles Nielsen & the Rusted Heart / Szlachetka at The Law Office
Miles Nielsen
Rockford, IL-based Miles Nielsen has spent nearly a decade enthralling audiences with music that draws force from the prime years of Western-influenced rock music and classic 60s soul. Claiming influences as diverse as Otis Reddings classic soul and Jellyfishs cult power pop recordings, Nielsen has thus far released two albums his debut in 2009 as a solo artist, and then his sophomore album in 2012 as Miles Nielsen and the Rusted Hearts to critical acclaim and an ever-growing fanbase. The Rusted Hearts hot streak will continue this year with their upcoming third LP, Heavy Metal.
Heavy Metal blends the country-esque drawl and growling guitars of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers with the subtly sensual undercurrent of Ray Charles. Vocal harmonies present throughout the album recall Fleetwood Mac as strongly as they bring to mind the very first doo wop groups. But despite The Rusted Hearts readily apparent influences, the result of these combined roots is a singular sound that readily distinguishes the band from its peers.
Szlachetka
Rolling Stone hailed SZLACHETKA as one of the 10 New Country Artists You Need to Know, describing his forthcoming album as "a soundtrack for both the highway and the heartland... a collection of road-dog roots-rockers and Americana ballads inspired by the people (and places) he's left behind in the rearview mirror."
SZLACHETKA (pronounced SLA-HET-KA) draws your gaze back to a simpler time when music was less about stylized production and more about its experiential nature. His songwriting finds inspiration in the threads that connect us, weaving a tapestry of familiar moments that pay homage to the past while leaning into a future that promises both wonder and grace. Now based in Nashville, SZLACHETKA grew up in New England and began his career as the frontman for the acclaimed roots-rock band, The Northstar Session, with whom he recorded five albums and appeared in the second season of NBCs Parenthood. After nearly a decade of touring he left the band and struck out on his own, releasing his first solo album in 2014, Waits for a Storm to Find. SZLACHETKAs sophomore album (produced by Grammy winning producer David Bianco), Heart of my Hometown is set for release in early 2018.
