The Cerny Brothers: The Cerny Brothers are an Americana rock band in Los Angeles, CA. Their recordings and live show are compared to The Avett Brothers, The Felice Brothers and Bruce Springsteen. They are a four-piece band with acoustic guitar, banjo, electric guitar, upright bass and drums. With over 120 shows in California they have played everywhere in Los Angeles from the Troubadour, The Hotel Café and The Bootleg Theatre. They’re currently in residence at The Mint in Los Angeles for the spring. The Cerny Brothers got their start when Robert and Scott Cerny were just kids growing up in rural Illinois. Spending their childhood years writing, recording and performing in the small towns of the Midwest, the sprawl of Los Angeles was a welcomed change. Just a year after arriving in Los Angeles the brothers met Turlock, CA native, Cody Fontes. In late 2012, the threesome went back to their small town roots in the quiet town of Ojai, CA to make a record with producer Matt Linesch (Engineer for Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros) at “The Ed Shed” Studios. While promoting their self-titled release on LA’s KXLU they met Santa Monica native and bassist, Alby Hickman. The four brothers in music toured back home to the Midwest in the winter of 2013.

Jonny and The Jones: "Texas born guitar singer, Jonny Perdue grew up heavily rooted in blues & rock n' roll. In his most recent musical endeavor, Jonny & The Jones, Jonny fuses hard-driving blues with indie overtones. Growing up influenced by the likes of Howlin' Wolf, Muddy Waters, Sam Cooke & Ray Charles, Jonny carved out his sound for the 21st century blues and rock n' roll. After opening shows for acts like Robert Randolph and The Los Lonley Boys, Jonny's live performance is ramping up and his debut EP 'Javelina' is to be released next summer."

Aaron Embry: At the tail end of his three-year stint as the piano player for the Los Angeles ensemble Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros, Aaron Embry finally found the voice for which he’d been searching. He discovered this voice captive in an arch top tenor guitar, a harmonica, and a small stack of moleskin notebooks. Travel-ready and now equipped with his new discoveries, Embry found a current and the songs came up like a flood. He wrote at a prolific rate while on tour throughout the late spring and fall of last year, a body of songs born among communal, creative atmospheres of life on the road with Sharpe and of time on the rails with the numerous musicians of 2011′s Railroad Revival Tour. As a songwriter, Embry cut his teeth by recording and touring with greats such as Elliott Smith, Willie Nelson, and Daniel Lanois, among plenty of others. In April 2012 he began recording, and the outcome is Tiny Prayers: a 10-track collection that explores a wide range of emotions while anchored in the cardinal folk tradition of simplicity. Elemental song structures and spartan acoustic arrangements bring Embry up close and in focus as a songwriter, singer, and musician. Lyrics such as “Is my happiness dependent on its own design? Am I only waking up to leave my dreams behind?” are evidence of his love for emotional complexity, while his voice and bare instrumentation carve melodies that are built like something low to the ground yet wide as the sky.
