| Description: |
Kyle Hollingsworth, keyboardist for Colorado's beloved String Cheese Incident for over a decade, has consistently proven to be one of the most innovative and virtuosic musicians on the American jamband scene. Now, with the release of Then There's Now (SCI Fidelity Records), his first album since the band announced a hiatus in 2007, Hollingsworth extends his reach into areas that will both delight longtime admirers and lock in countless new ones. Emphasizing his considerable songwriting skills and incorporating a plethora of surprises, Then There's Now marks the true emergence of Kyle Hollingsworth as a solo artist. For Hollingsworth, who has recently been more prolific than ever before, the title of Then There's Now offers the first clue as to where he stands today. It's very much where I am post-Cheese, he says, both in my career and also personally. After becoming a father I realized the importance of living in the moment, in the now. So the title has multiple meanings to me, the literal meaning and the more introspective meaning of being in the present. Ryan Montbleau Band opens |

| Ryan Montbleau Band | Ryan Montbleau is a pure soul singer. Not in the traditional sense. His voice although a sweet, passionate instrument isnt packed with Memphis clay like Al Greens or greased with urban sophistication like R. Kellys. Instead, Montbleau sings purely from his soul in a voice every bit as honest, open hearted and original as the stories he tells in his songs. Whether hes playing a club around his Boston home base or a big stage at the Gathering of the Vibes or the High Sierra Music Festival, the young leader of the Ryan Montbleau Band is a one-man antidote for an era of irony. His lyrics about romance, joy, pain and loss care nothing for the barriers of image and style. He is unabashedly romantic, wistful, a soul-searcher looking for the Holy Grails of Love, Virtue and Hope at a time when headlines and the rapid pace of life often make those causes feel lost. |
