Annapolis based trio Pressing Strings (Jordan Sokel: Guitar/Vocals, Nick Welker: Bass, Brandon Bartlett: Drums) got to work developing its fanbase in 2014 with mid-Atlantic shows from Pennsylvania to the Carolinas, then headed into the studio to record its Owe The Source album, released in 2015. The band linked up with Grammy-winning producer/engineer Scott Jacoby (Coldplay, Vampire Weekend, Ronnie Spector) to record Most Of Us. Following that album's 2016 release, the band then toured coast-to-coast with power-pop songstress Rachael Yamagata in 2017, along with its own headlining shows along the Eastern Seaboard.
Silent Old Mtns. began in the Spring of 2011, when a one-off concert snowballed into a full-time regional act. They released their debut album, Velvet Raccoon, in 2012 and began touring nationally averaging 100 performances a year from 2011-2013. In October 2013, the band decided to take a hiatus, which lasted until July 2015. After reuniting, the band released a new song in October 2015 titled Trenches. After the release of Trenches, the band began writing new material that would become the makings of a sophomore record, Gary, released in December 2019.
