Artist Info: Dan Hubbard: Dan Hubbard is a singer-songwriter whose music captivates audiences with its blend of heartfelt lyrics and soulful melodies. With a folk-rock sound that draws inspiration from Americana and roots music, Hubbard's songs often explore themes of introspection, love, and the human experience. His distinctive voice, accompanied by acoustic guitar-driven arrangements, creates an intimate and immersive listening experience. Hubbard's ability to craft poignant storytelling within his songs has earned him a dedicated following, as he continues to traverse the musical landscape with his evocative and emotionally resonant compositions. Aaron Kelly: Aaron Kelly was never on American Idol, but did grow up on the edge of the Chicago megalopolis, falling under the influence of John Prime, Townes Van Zandt, and empathy, his songs are carefully crafted and made to last. He's been featured by American Songwriter Magazine and released Barefoot and Bottomed Out, his first solo album, in 2016, after zig-zagging across the country for years with Overman. Making up for lost time, Aaron Kelly Band released their debut LP, Songs Still Sing, on 9/23/22. An adjacent 6-song EP, Letting the Animals Out, will release in early 2023. Brandon Sampson: It all started in Lyle, MN (pop. 500) with a skid loader and a fence post. Six Mile Grove frontman Brandon Sampson was 7 years old when he injured his hand while helping his dad on the family farm. Guitar playing was prescribed for rehab, and Sampson went from the hospital to the music store to buy a new guitar. To keep things fair, younger brother Brian was awarded a shiny new drum set, and the seeds of Six Mile Grove were planted. The brothers spent years pounding on instruments in their great grandmother’s kitchen, while singing in church with their mom on organ. Brian’s best friend Barry joined the noise, and his years of piano lessons finally paid off. Dezi Wallace was added thanks to a conversation between two dads over a beer at Lyle Liquor, the local on and off. John Wheeler, the final member of Six Mile Grove joined years later on pedal steel and lap steel, adding decades of experience not only in music but life to the band. Six Mile Grove has weathered 20 years of the tumultuous music scene as a self-managed, self-produced, and self-recorded band. Its music continues to evolve, as an organic, honest voice untinkered with and untainted by the lure of record labels or flashy music producers.
