Drawing on sources like like Miles Davis’s “In a Silent Way” and John Fahey’s “Fare Forward Voyagers,” guitarist Dan Sullivan assembled a full band that creates tapestries of melody, texture and rhythm. Madeleine Aguilar (keyboards, percussion), Rob Bochnik (baritone guitar), Andy Hall (drums) and Eddie Matthews (tenor and soprano saxophone) elevate mood above chops as they create a detailed framework around Sullivan’s distinctive electric fingerstyle guitar playing.

After moving to Chicago 1999, Thomas Comerford founded and led the indie rock outfit Kaspar Hauser over a series of lineups and LP releases in the 2000s. By 2010, he also was playing with a number of backing musicians and releasing LPs under his own name, including Archive + Spiral in 2011, II in 2014, Blood Moon in 2018 and Introverts in 2021 as well as some singles, including a 2023 7” record with the band Mar Caribe. The music, songs and singing on these releases have been compared to the likes of Jeff Tweedy and Tom Waits (USA Today) and Lou Reed and the Go Betweens (Chicago Reader). Recently, Comerford started Another VU, a Velvet Underground tribute group, who plays songs from the band's 1969 era, as well as a rock n roll band called Glimmerwire. Currently, he is mixing a 4-song Thomas Comerford EP recorded with his live band that will see release in 2025.
