New York’s City of the Sun is a worldly, genre-bending acoustic trio based in Brooklyn, NY. Formed in 2011, COS features guitarists John Pita, and percussionist Zach Para. They honed their sound busking on the streets of New York City, then graduated to selling out major NYC venues. The group gained wider attention after performing at Ted talk conferences and Sofar Sounds secret shows.

Gene Jacket is a semi-fictional musician who is known throughout the city of NEW YORK for crooning away in old park tunnels and on subway platforms with an old nylon string guitar.

Swedish artist, songwriter, musician and producer. New album out fall of 2016 through Glitterhouse. Guest vocals from french singer Soko and american artist Mark Lanegan

“Rebels know how to stir the pot, but Swedish musician Christine Owman kicks the whole damn thing over... Owman is a multi-instrumentalist songwriting prodigy in the strain of Tom Waits, St. Vincent, and Beck. Owman’s second LP evokes sounds reminiscent of its title: beautiful, emotional, precise, and deadly. “ 9 out of 10 by Alex Lemonde-Gray, Eastern Surf - Vital Reverb (US)

"..beautiful, eerie melodies, sometimes delicate, sometimes ragged arrangements, and a dream-like vocal prettiness can only add to the conundrum. Christine Owman is certainly not going for the obvious."   Jennifer Kelly - Blurt Magazine (US)

“This chanteuse is artistic.. It’s exquisitely haunting and as intriguing she performs backed by 20s silent films.. chilly updates of old-timey accents, then coos like a mother siren waking napping children with a tense of edge instead of a comforting caress.
Jack Rabid - The Big TakeOver (US)

"If you weren't there, you should buy her record anyway and tell people you saw her.".

”..most unique performer over the four days..."
review by Stephen Greenwood - Virtual Festivals regarding CHRISTINE OWMAN @ Liverpool Sound City 2010

"It was the most moving performance of Sound City 2010 and lovely example of ‘performance art.”
review by Ed - Shakenstir regarding CHRISTINE OWMAN @ Liverpool Sound City 2010

There's so much you have to do when you're alive. I hate the conventional part of me who struggles with keeping up with what the ideal woman is supposed to look and be like, what latest innovation that'll make me happy or what a happy life is supposed to be like. I struggel with convention every day. It feeds me with unnecessary cravings and makes me compare myself with unrealistic visions. Living today, atleast in my generation equals to the eternal search and race towards getting acknowledgement from others. Getting seen. There once was a saying "I think, therefore I am." Todays version of that is "You see me, therefore I am". I don't have to stand out of the crowd. I just don't want to be a part of it. 
-Christine Owman

Tom Wait's rhythms, PJ Harvey's sensual attitude, Elliott Smith's reserved vocals, the mystique of Twin Peaks combined with Bjork's fresh originality.
