** MORE ABOUT THE BANDS **
Talbott Brothers (Omaha/Imperial)
http://www.thetalbottbrothers.com/
Imperial natives Tyler and Nick Talbott have toured the country hard the last two years. And it’s easy to hear how the coast-to-coast voyages have informed their writing. EPs “The Road, Coming Home” and the forthcoming “Places” undulate from folk pop to classic radio rock, but each one finds the brothers searching for something.
See Through Dresses (Omaha)

Rousing and drowsy, but always sonically smart, Omaha’s See Through Dresses is anchored to its brilliantly layered rock. The four-piece is touring Central Europe in the spring of 2015, following a national tour with nationally renowned indie band Cursive. See Through Dresses’ debut album came out in late 2013 and a follow-up is due out this year on the German label This Charming Man.
The Bottle Tops (Lincoln)
The Lincoln husband-wife-fronted Bottle Tops are joyfully reliable onstage, always devoted to and enamored of the bluegrass/rockabilly tradition they’ve tapped into and tweaked. With resonances to Johnny Cash and June Carter, Mike and Kerry Semrad are backed by a bevy of local and national bluegrass players. The Bottle Tops released its debut record in 2014 on Sower Records and a follow-up is coming later this year.
