MEGAN “BIRD” SIEBERG – In an international effort, Leith Sharp, Jenny Urban and Megan “Bird” Sieberg blend the sounds of Australian Folk with the sincere music and rhythm of the midwest. Sieberg and Urban came together in August 2011 to play for Andersonville’s outdoor Women in Music Festival, combining original guitar and vocals with the unique sound of Cajon. Shortly thereafter, the two joined forces with Sharp, a dynamic singer, songwriter and street performer from Sydney, Australia. The trio has since played events such as: Four Women at Katerina’s, Women in Music at T’s, and the Mich-fest reunion. They have a passion for original art in the LGBTQ community, and their music is written to be shared.
CRUMBS OFF THE TABLE – Crumbs Off the Table is the groove-based rock/soul heart child of Andrea Bunch. Fellow Old Town School of Folk Music faculty members John Mead, Mike Mann and Cheryl Lawson play guitar, bass and drums. Crumbs originals have been likened to the songs of Richie Havens and The Temptaions’ David Ruffin. Crumbs Off the Table also covers the likes of funk group Glass House and King Crimson’s Adrian Belew. Singer/writer/instrumentalist Bunch has toured the US with Congress of Starlings and has composed and recorded for dozens of albums, dance pieces and multi-media performances. She was recently awarded the prestigious 3Arts Fellowship to attend Ragdale Artist’s Retreat. Andrea teaches at The Old Town School of Folk Music and is pursuing a doctorate of physical therapy at Northwestern.
DEAD END DAYS – Dead End Days is currently Mike Petruccelli and Stephanie Levi.

This sound, added with the first person lyrical content gives Dead End Days a sound that is energetic and strong, yet still remains patient and dynamic. Amp Magazine describes it as “-an attempt to redefine the terms of melodic punk and alternative by adding a Singer Songwriter element to [the] music…”
