Artichoke Hearts — folk/Americana
“The Artichoke Hearts are a rootin’ tootin’ new string band from Omaha and Lincoln, playing folk pop and Americana for our friends and neighbors!”

Matt Cox Band — Americana

“Shenandoah, Iowa, native Matt Cox self-released his debut album “Folker’s Travels” in 2007 and established himself as a vibrant part of the emerging Omaha, Nebraska singer/songwriter scene. While local and regional stages allowed him to bring his foot-stomping, old-time country and blues to a steadily growing fanbase, Cox began to define his singular style and road worn vocals by touring a good part of the western United States and reaching new audiences in places like Denver, Phoenix, LA, and San Francisco, as well as Austin, TX.

Now a six-time Omaha Entertainment and Arts Award winner for Best Country/Americana and Best Blues, the caliber of artist Matt Cox has become in the studio and on stage is being recognized regionally, and across the nation. Cox continues to play shows with an ever-changing lineup of the area’s top talent and a raw energy that reveals the passion and experience that friends share with each other on stage and off.”
