“Astrology has always kinda pissed me off,” muses singer/songwriter Andrea, half of Tucson-based folk/rock duo Birds and Arrows. “But I’m sure there are people thinking, ‘That’s such a Gemini thing to say!’”

Since their inception 16 years ago, Birds and Arrows–aka married artists Andrea and Pete Connolly–have taken their Southwestern-tinged folk-rock on tour across the USA. They’ve been featured on compilations with the likes of Wilco, Big Star, Yo La Tengo, and Whiskeytown, shared the stage with bands like The Mountain Goats, Dr. Dog, Lisa Marie Presley, XIXA, Black Mountain, Orchestral Maneuvers in the Dark, and Big Star, and they were voted “Best Rock Band in Tucson” in 2021 by the readers of Tucson Weekly.

Their upcoming album, Electric Bones–out August 5th, 2022 on Hookworm Records–is a collection of thoughtful compositions, 70’s groove, classic folk-rock, and stellar vocals reminiscent of Fleetwood Mac. “The creation of Electric Bones comes from a defiant, confident and incredulous place,” says Pete, drummer, vocalist, and multimedia artist who also created the album cover. “We never attempt to second guess our writing and creativity based on what we think people want to hear.” 

With an Arizona-focused indie label, Hookworm Records, releasing Electric Bones on vinyl, plus the marketing and management services of Chelsey Louise (of Fairy Bones) from Poor Life Choice agency, Birds and Arrows have nowhere to go but up.

Benjamin Laub – better known as Grieves – is a Seattle-based hip-hop artist. He emerged in 2007 with the independently released Irreversible. This led to touring with some of indie rap’s finest, including artists like Atmosphere, Macklemore, Cunninlynguists, Watsky, Chris Webby, P.O.S, and many more. He’s since followed with four more full-length studio albums: 88 Keys & Counting (2010); Together/Apart (2011) which landed at #1 on Billboard’s Heatseekers and #106 on their Top 200; Winter & the Wolves (2014) which peaked at #57 on Billboard’s Top 200; and his latest release, Running Wild (2017). In the summer of 2019, Grieves released a new addition to his arsenal, a new 8-track EP, The Collections of Mr. Nice Guy.

With 2020 presenting itself with its own unique challenges, some silver linings appeared, one being forced downtime. Grieves took that opportunity and dove heavy into the melodic realm with his newest release, 14 tracks of instrumentals, Canopy (June 2021).
