Sarah Bethe Nelson

Sarah Bethe Nelson is the constant observer. Having spent the better part of her adult life tending bar at San Francisco’s most well-loved watering holes, she has witnessed thousands of late nights fights, early morning rants, blackouts, make-outs, and make-ups. Yet she seems to have an eye cast askance at the streetlights outside. For it’s not the drama unfolding inside the bar that keeps her rapt; it’s the possibility that one night a light will appear outside, a glowing orb with all the answers that she can levitate into, that will rescue her from love-worn ennui, from the violence of misspent youth. What stands out about the songs on her BURGER RECORDS debut Fast-Moving Clouds is this sense of waiting, waiting, hoping.

Your main main man Sean plays with your heart like a marionette while the Sweats bring it all back to breath and beat. True country heroes. true whiskey sweat.

All Young Girls Are Machine Guns

All Young Girls Are Machine Guns is sometimes a single singer-songwriter on her ukulele, and sometimes a seven piece Doo-Wop and Soul band from Omaha, Nebraska. Formed back in 2009, AYGAMG has taken the last five years to develop their sound from a mish-mash of pop, jazz, country, and blues and fine tuned it into a consistent soulful sound
