Counting CrowsOrchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark (often abbreviated to OMD) is a synth pop group whose founding members are originally from The Wirral Peninsula, United Kingdom. OMD record for Virgin Records (originally for Virgin's DinDisc subsidiary).
The group was founded in 1978 by Andy McCluskey and Paul Humphreys, after they had been involved in several bands, including The Id. Later drummer Malcolm Holmes and saxophonist Martin Cooper joined. McCluskey and Humphreys formed the core of the outfit until 1989, when the group split. McCluskey then retained the name and continued to record and tour as OMD with a new line-up. Humphreys, Holmes, and Cooper formed The Listening Pool.
In late December 2005, OMD's official website announced a 2006 reformation, for both live performances and a new album, with rehearsals beginning in summer 2006. The planned line up will feature the original 1980's members. The Architecture & Morality tour for late 2006 was postponed until the beginning of 2007.
The tour finally took place in the spring of 2007 featuring Architecture & Morality played in its entirety plus a 'greatest hits' set, although each concert famously ended with stirring rendition of B side/album track and fan favourite 'The Romance of the Telescope'.
Plans are now ahead for the release of a documentary DVD, a live DVD of the 2007 tour (release postponed until 2008) and possibly a new studio album in 2008. -

Elvis Costello & the ImpostersElvis Costello and The Imposters – Steve Nieve (keyboards), Davey Faragher (bass), Pete Thomas (drums) – have made a sensational new album that ranks alongside the best work this singularly great artist has ever produced.
Recorded in Hollywood, New York City and Vancouver, British Columbia, ‘Look Now’ is beautiful in its simplicity, reflective in its lyrical vision, surrounded by melodies and orchestrations that are nothing short of heavenly. It’s the first album Costello has made with The Imposters since the 2008 release of ‘Momofuku’ and his first new album since the acclaimed 2013 Roots collaboration, ‘Wise Up Ghost’.
Anyone anywhere in the world who has seen Elvis Costello and The Imposters live can testify to their unmitigated swagger. Costello’s suspicion that it was time to return to the studio was confirmed while on the ‘Imperial Bedroom & Other Chambers’ tour of the USA, last summer and he realized the power and sheer musicality of The Imposters had never really been fully captured on one record.
“I knew if we could make an album with the scope of ‘Imperial Bedroom’ and some of the beauty and emotion of ‘Painted From Memory’, we would really have something”, said Costello.
‘Look Now’ is an outstanding 12-strong addition to his song catalogue. Most of the titles were written solely by Elvis Costello although, ‘Don’t Look Now’ and ‘Photographs Can Lie’ were co-written with Burt Bacharach, who makes a guest appearance, leading The Imposters from the piano for those two ballads.
Another song to which Bacharach contributed, ‘He’s Given Me Things’ features some of the best singing Elvis has ever recorded, while ‘Burnt Sugar Is So Bitter’ was written with Carole King and closes with a serpentine horn line winding around Steve Nieve’s atmospheric keyboard parts.
The album was co-produced by Elvis and Sebastian Krys - the Latin Grammy Producer of the Year for 2007 and 2015, whose love and understanding of music spans both hemispheres.
Sebastian had worked extensively with Pete and Davey in the Los Angeles studios, so it’s no surprise that this dynamic rhythm section was incredibly well-prepared for the recording sessions. “When Pete and Davey are in this kind of rare form, it’s wise to get on the back-beat with your Telecaster and stay out of their way”, said Costello.
Speaking of his own role as co-producer, Costello said, “I had all of the orchestrations and vocal parts in my head or on the page before we played a note, so it was essential that I worked closely with Steve Nieve to maintain the light and space in the arrangements and allow him to shine.”
Costello completed the picture by adding both guitar and his own vibraphone or celesta parts to his orchestrations but remarked, “Sebastian was there to make sure only the essential notes got onto the record, whether it was a fuzz-tone guitar or jazz bassoon.”
“In the final mixing, Sebastian did a beautiful job of keeping everything present but always lead by emotion or narrative, although when balancing the band, my voice and the quartet of woodwinds and horns that I’d written for ‘Stripping Paper’, I told him to “Just trust the blur.”

Over the last two years, he has tirelessly toured the globe while building a formidable fanbase. Not to mention, he’s become a standout at multiple festivals in addition to making his Grand Ole Opry debut.

Once again, Dylan self-produced and wrote the entire album, with three songs co-written with close friend and bandmate Colton Forrest Hardy. Led by singles “Like I Do,” “American Trail,” and “Sweet Lady,” the album thematically ponders the nature of love, family, faith, and what it means to pursue a lifelong dream.

Amble
Amble are Robbie Cunningham, Oisin McCaffrey and Ross Mc Nerney, a 3-piece ensemble of songwriters hailing from the Midlands and West of Ireland.
If Amble’s debut EP, 2023’s “Amble (Live)”, introduced a new, musing, trad-tinged trio of songwriters to the Irish music scene, 2024’s highly distinctive “Of Land and Sea” finds the group expanding their sound to an ever-more global audience.
The unique perspective of three individual songwriters creates a peerless body of work - built on the now familiar, ruminative observations on the world and more fitting to the Amble journey - the stories unfolding each day within it.

Avery AnnaAttracting attention from esteemed media outlets like Rolling Stone, Billboard, American Songwriter, and more, exciting newcomer Avery Anna continues to build “one hell of a brand for herself” (OutKick). In 2025, she released her sophomore album, let go letters, comprising songs all inspired by real-life situations shared by her fans via the “Let Go Letters.” Named one of Billboard’s “50 Best Albums of 2025,” Avery took inspiration from her fans experiences to“craft detailed, thoughtful and ultimately encouraging songs that hold up a mirror to those who have struggled with issues of depression, body image, addiction, domestic violence and more” (Billboard). The year also saw her reach Top 10 on Billboard’s Hot Country Songs chart with Sam Barber for their Platinum-certified, viral duet “Indigo,” which they performed together onThe Kelly Clarkson Show. She has earned Artist To Watch nods from Amazon Music, Apple Music, Pandora, Spotify, YouTube, MusicRow, and CMT and has performed for national TV audiences on the 2023 CMT Music Awards where she was nominated for Breakthrough Artist of the Year, before making her morning TV debut on NBC’s TODAY. Having garnered more than 1 billion global streams to date, the Arizona native has quickly become an in-demand touring artist and spent the summer on the road opening for Luke Bryan’s Country Song Came On Tour and Brad Paisley’s Truck Still Works World Tour. She also wrapped up her nearly sold-out headlining Let Go Letters Tour this winter and will kick off her Girl Of Constant Sorrow Tour in March.

Buffalo Traffic JamBuffalo Traffic Jam is a folk band born in the heart of Bozeman, Montana, where its members, Frankie Cassidy and Nathan Ross, first crossed paths as students at Montana State University. United by a love for storytelling and the raw beauty of acoustic sound, they began crafting music that evokes wide-open landscapes and the emotions that live quietly beneath the surface of everyday life. The result was a self-titled debut ep followed by singles “Rescue Me” and “Forgot Your Roots;” the latter of which saw the band gain their first bit of online momentum and led to the signing of their very first record deal with Arista Records.
With rich harmonies, stripped-down instrumentation, and vocals that make you feel—whether it's longing, joy, or that bittersweet in-between—Buffalo Traffic Jam creates songs that linger long after the last chord fades. Their music is as much about atmosphere as it is about melody, rooted in folk traditions but carried forward by a modern emotional edge.
2025 has seen the release of two more singles, “Strangers Now” and “Milestone” and will see the band make their festival debuts at both Under the Big Sky and Red West Festival before heading out on tour with rising country singer-songwriter Dylan Gossett. From dorm room jam sessions to packed local venues, Buffalo Traffic Jam stays true to their roots—authenticity, friendship, and the natural beauty that first brought them together in Montana.

Sarah JuliaMusic built on a closeness you can’t fake. Their intimate indie folk grows out of a shared childhood and family changes that break you apart and put you back together differently. The love for Bon Iver, Ben Howard or Cat Stevens can be heard in the sensitivity and the use of silence, but their writing also carries the openness we know from Phoebe Bridgers or Joni Mitchell. These songs aren’t about imitation – they’re about what they themselves have lived through. Some of them took years to form and continued to evolve on stage. Instead of raw anger, what remains today is a calm, melodic melancholy. Sarah Julia are sisters from Amsterdam, and their second EP expands that initial fragility into a fuller sound and a more confident voice. Critics speak of strong harmonies and lyrics that don’t skim the surface. Their concerts aren’t built on effects or poses, but on moments when the music slips under your skin and stays there a little longer than you expected. Their fans form an almost mystical community and call themselves “the witches”. After their show in Dolní Vítkovice, that circle might just grow a little bigger.
