The Endless Knot Arts Festival

Autumn Hollow Band

“The Autumn Hollow band is a five piece of mixed influence, blending together to produce a sound somewhere between rock ‘n’ roll and the new country. The band brings with it a number of influences from Wilco to The Band to CSNY – consisting of members Brendan Murphy (singer/songwriter), Todd Sampson (drums), Mike Burke (lead guitar), Scott Marucci (bass), and Noel Coakley (pedal steel, banjo).”

Kier Byrnes

“Front man for Boston band, Three Day Threshold. Three Day Threshold could be the soundtrack to a shotgun wedding, tractor pull, or dog fight. It's bluegrass on overdrive, it's an after hours rockabilly prom but most of all it's a show not to be missed. They've garnered more accolades than a dog's got fleas; a handful of Boston Music Awards and WFNX/Phoenix Awards, as well as a few nods for "Artist of the Year" from Jam Music Magazine and "Best Live Band" from The Noise. Three Day Threshold has had write ups all from over the world, from Italy to England , from Maine to Georgia . Their music has been showcased in movies and television The band has shared stages with national acts like The Drive By Truckers, The Hackensaw Boys, Social Distortion, Southern Culture on the Skids, G.E. Smith, BR5-49 and even, yes, Quiet Riot.”

Patmos Brothers

“The Patmos Brothers Revival consists of Joe Patmos, Andy Patmos, Drew Barnes and Mike Bean. Drawing from a wide range of influences they combine old time country, bluegrass, blues, rockabilly and many other styles to create a high energy sound.”

William’s Boy

“The Williamsboy is a singer-songwriter, whose live performances and gritty original Rock-N-Roll are reminiscent of artists such as Wilco, Bob Dylan, and Bruce Springsteen. Equally at home playing ramshackle folk, bar-room-blues, modern rock and alt-country; The Williamsboy’s sound is timeless. He plays guitar like Steve Earle, harmonica like Sonny Boy Williamson, and has a voice compared to Tom Waits. Music lives in his heart and seeps from his pores. The sincerity in his voice and the truth in his music prove it. The Williamsboy speaks his own language. His first album "Roads" was released this past Spring 2008 on Dirt Floor Records.”

Mark H. Rooney of Odaiko

“Odaiko New England (ONE) was founded in 1994 by Elaine Fong and a group of individuals with a common love of taiko. As a roster artist of Young Audiences of Massachusetts, Odaiko New England presents a dynamic taiko program to K-12 students, reaching over 15,000 students last year. The powerful voice of the taiko is a striking example of the use of the arts to inspire, inform, and educate. In addition to performances, Odaiko New England is dedicated and committed to teaching taiko. It has weekly adult and children’s taiko classes, and conducts community and corporate workshops. Our schedule of activities continues to grow – in 2007, Odaiko New England presented 200+ teaching and performing activities.”
