“Johnny Kicked The Bucket”
- “hard to pigeon-hole, really
blends the genres... you can hear Louisiana jazz sound in there..... blew off the cobwebs.... the music does the
talking” - Marie Crichton BBC Radio
Shropshire
Americana /
Bluegrass / Alt-Country / Roots
Band Members: Adele Ingram (guitar, banjo, mandolin and bvs),
Louise Potter (drums, percussion and bvs), Lyndsay Crothers (lead vocals,
guitar, electric bass, percussion and djembe) and Sharon Morgan (lead guitar,
banjo, mandolin and double bass)
Home Town: All
over Northern Ireland
Wookalily is a
female led Americana folk band with roots in bluegrass and country. They turf
out timeless songs from the bogs of Northern Ireland to the bayous of
Louisiana. Having been swamped in both musical traditions they’ve managed to
create a transatlantic sound that is authentic yet quirky.
Between hammerin’
out the harmonies, slammin’ on the geetars, slappin’ the bass, beatin the
drums, pickin’ on the banjos (not to mention the banjo players) and chopping on
the fiddle it’s a miracle Wookalily haven’t been arrested for cruelty to
expensive musical instruments. Despite their reckless ways they’ve managed to
create a unique and distinctive sound that’s all heart. Their style, sometimes
referred to among the lilys as chillbilly roots, has an old-timey feel with a
young-timey appeal.
Wookalily
released their EP Black Magic Doll in 2011.
Their song
“Diamonds and Gold” gained them an invite to a songwriter’s showcase as part of
the prestigious IBMA World of Bluegrass Festival in Nashville in 2012.
They were part
of the late Dixie Hall’s (country music hall of famer) all female compilation
PICKIN’ LIKE A GIRL in 2013. They were the only band outside of the USA to
feature on the album thus becoming DAUGHTERS OF BLUEGRASS.
Their debut
album ALL THE WAITING WHILE was released November 2014. The album is gaining increasing
airplay on BBC and RTE.
Their unique
songwriting and fantastic musicality have carved them a unique place in the
Irish music scene seeing them play everywhere from big festivals and stages to
intimate residencies in Belfast City's prestigious Cathedral Quarter." -Tina
Calder, writer & Co-Founder of Fame Magazine (October 2013)

“My Mistake” – ”I like the vibe to this one” - Marie Crichton BBC Radio Shropshire
Current Location:
Nashville, TN
Born: Camaron Ochs
A fresh and
heartfelt new force in country music that feels like home and sounds like the
truth. Cam’s country roots trace back to her grandparents ranch in Southern
California: imagine palm trees, horses, a blue barn and a tractor named Big
Red.
She funded her debut EP ‘Down This Road’ through Kickstarter and
has toured all over the world off her own back, moving from her home state of
California to Nashville in 2012 because she was asked to write some songs for
Faith Hill. Since then she has also been working on producing her own country
sound and toured with Dan + Shay.
In January 2015
Sony Music Nashville signed (image) the California native singer-songwriter. As a writer her cuts
have spanned pop and country including Miley Cyrus' 2013 platinum album
BANGERZ.
Cam is currently
recording her Arista Nashville debut album with Grammy®-winning producer Jeff
Bhasker (Bruno Mars, Beyoncé, FUN., The Rolling Stones, Taylor Swift) and Tyler
Johnson (Ed Sheeran, OneRepublic, Taylor Swift, Miley Cyrus, Mikky Ekko).
Cam’s debut
single, “My Mistake,” written by Cam and producer Tyler Johnson, shipped to country
radio on February 3rd 2015. (See Press Release)

“Smile On Mine”
– It’s edgy modern but still has a homage to the past, I really like
it...rather good I thought” - Marie Crichton BBC Radio Shropshire
Country /
Acoustic / Singer/Songwriter Austin, TX
A country singer
and songwriter. His introduction: Country music, as it was, is and always
should be, with boots firmly standing on the bedrock of tradition and an eye
focused on taking it into the future. And that, as any fan of true country
knows, is no simple proposition.
His 2010
release, It All Happened In A Honky Tonk, became such a regional success that
it was re-released as a Deluxe Edition by Warner Music Nashville in 2013. The
album debuted at #34 on the Billboard Album Chart and has collectively sold
25,000 units.
Wolfe’s
much-anticipated forthcoming album, NATURAL
MAN was produced by Wolfe, Lex Lipsitz and Billy Decker and recorded at
Nashville’s Westwood Studios and Ronnie’s Place. It is described as a 13-track
collection of songs that merges Wolfe’s signature traditional sound, influenced
by some of Country music’s greatest legends, with an edgy, modern energy. It
has a release date of March 31.
Wolfe describes
the album as a personal journey, saying, “Natural Man is a concept that I have
wanted to record for a few years. This album stretches me as an artist and as a
vocalist, while staying true to who I am. I have known how I wanted it to
sound, and how I wanted it to look for some time now. I’ve been visualizing
this album for such a long time, and it feels great to finally bring it to
life!”
His new single "Smile
On Mine" (Tone Tree
Records / Fool Hearted Productions) hit country radio in late January was
released digitally Feb 3, 2015. (Source: Press
