March 9, 2024

Whether it's supercharged indie rock, bittersweet pop, or something completely new, Brian Kelly/Oceanography will expose your heart.

Along the way he played and sang with the Butte County All Stars, Food, and with Silence The Bird. Brian is located in Oakland, CA, bringing music to the wider world.

Light Hands, Feet of Clay (Street) - Richard Wiegel

February 23, 2021

Richard Wiegel has spent a full lifetime earning a living through making music, which might be the dream, but seldom the actuality of the dreams of a small-town boy. Roots rock is his central thing, although sometimes his style of music might be called Americana, and he can definitely throw in a ragtime and a blues and all kinds of country. Though he's often a solo act, a fair amount of his music was recorded with a group called The Midwesterners. He's a talented guy, been with a couple dozen bands, out-lived them all!
