R.T. Colasurdo
These days, R.T. Colasurdo is spending less time on the road and much more of it in the studio, writing his musical stories. Starting in his early teens, he has been a working musician, performing with northwest greats such as The Griffin Band, Breeze, Hotel Texas and the renowned Bramble Brothers.
Like a lot of kids, R.T. took up music at an early age – but unlike most, he kept after it. Practicing guitar while learning other instruments, his hard work eventually paid off. This veteran songwriter and troubadour has since mastered woodwinds, keyboard, and percussion as well as the guitar.
Bobby Holland
Bobby Holland describes his music as “uptempo Americana, southern style,” which as an description for his distinct blend of influences. This probably comes from his Richmond, VA upbringing, one which brought with it a southern heritage that informs the styling of his songs. In many ways, Holland defies easy categorization, as he moves seamlessly from country, through rock, and right on into the blues. He consistently delivers first rate material that will keep the listener engaged and returning for more.
Thus far, Bobby has released 4 full-length albums for us. He has also appeared on a trio of compilation efforts to date. In addition to his own solo material, he has been known to contribute some of his fine guitar chops to other artists’ recordings, like some recent sessions he did with Doc Van Etten. Whatever the particulars, though, if you are a fan of rock music, guitar rock, southern rock, country rock, or for that matter just curious about hearing a top notch musician and first rate songwriter, you should definitely check Bobby Holland out!
