L.A. based songwriter Greg Laswell’s star has been on the rise since the release of Through Toledo, his 2006 Vanguard debut. With bright, orchestral melodies, melancholy and soul-searching lyrics, he’s won legions of fans and has become a favorite of film and television music supervisors. Laswell’s songs have been featured in a number of television shows including: Grey’s Anatomy (he had four placements last season alone—including an original song called “Off I Go” recorded specifically for the season finale), True Blood, The Hills 90210 and Smallville.

Ketover's new CD Simple Town is not traditional folk and probably not commercial enough for pop rock. Despite these apparent gaps, several in the biz have commented favorably on Michael Ketover’s latest effort. After several recurring stints on the keyboards backing Cass & Clay, this is Michael’s debut solo project. The tunes on Simple Town are generally upbeat with energetic acoustic guitar rhythms or genre-bending piano melodies, driven by percussive beats.
