The Sam Chase & The Untraditional

“There are some who can live without wild things, and some who cannot.” For the latter, we give you The Sam Chase & The Untraditional, a band seething with the vitality of the untamed. They roar into each performance with the ambition to change and be changed, to put a match to the collective energy and bask in the ensuing series of explosions that tingle the imagination. Intricate lyricism sets the table for the band to dance upon as the songs soar with vaudevillian grandeur, while the ringleader himself directs the spotlight upon each one of the players. Their performances emanate a playful warmth that contrasts the band’s genuine virtue with their attempted villainous facade; they’d like to convince you they’re the bad guys while their heroic humility casts them as nothing but the good. At the end of it all, they pour every last drop of themselves into their shows in the hopes that they’ll part ways with the audience brimming with delight. They are thoughtful and mischievous and the kind of wild we simply cannot live without.

Wryn

Step into the world of Wryn and allow all that is artifice to quickly fade away. Their music is less a reflection of the soul than the soul itself, and to watch them perform is to witness a being flowing in and out of the natural elements that define them. Swirling together are the ethereal wisps of the air, the feminine grace of water, the earth’s fertile foundation, and the passionate intensity of a fire that burns to illuminate rather than destroy. In a world where one’s attention is the most precious of commodities, Wryn presents an irresistible invitation to join them in a place where the conscious mind rarely ventures, and when your toes once again nestle back into the dirt, theirs is a dream not readily forgotten. Wryn’s music bestows us with the glories of which people are capable, and long after the notes fade into the night, we continue to move in their cadence and draw upon them as we face a troubled and often troubling world.
