DUSTIN WELCH One evening in 2006, he was playing in the house band for a tribute to Townes Van Zandt at the venerable old Belcourt Theater in Nashville. The drummer that
night was Ken Coomer from Wilco, who told him that he knew a band in San Diego who was looking for a guy like him. Within a week he flew out for an audition and didn't go home for 6 months, touring with the Scotch Greens all over

Daniel Park When his parents insisted on playing the violin at the age of seven, Singer/Songwriter Daniel Park had no idea that it would begin a musical journey that would develop him into a dynamic performer and successful musical act in the southwest. In his live performances he often features his unique looping technique, which allows him to play violin and guitar "simultaneously" on the same song. He has shared a stage with such acts as Christian artist Shawn MacDonald and Country rockers, Cross Canadian Ragweed. "Daniel Park has distilled what it is to be a singer songwriter in the late oughts, and in doing this, has created a blueprint that every individual with an acoustic guitar and a microphone should follow for the next decade. -James, NeuFutur Magazine (Dec 14, 2008)
