Lion Riding Horses

Lion Riding Horses
http://myspace.com/lionridinghorses
Andrew plays some drums. Greg plays guitar. Young tries to sing and play guitar at the same time but has trouble doing it well sometimes. Alex is good at the bass. Young and Andrew like music and burritos so they formed a band. Greg likes music too so he came along for the ride. We found Alex on craigslist. We thought he was going to be crazy but he turned out alright. Young saw a picture of a lion riding a horse and he chose that for our name. He writes the songs and then the rest of us make them better. We like what we do and we hope you enjoy our music or at least not want to throw things at us. If you do, please throw sandwiches. Thank you.

“The solo project of Jonathan Baskins, Greenflash is a convergence of both natural and synthetic acoustics to create a blended balance of harmony and dischord.”

Burying ’60s sing-alongs and dance crazes beneath waves of reverb and giddy thud, Ty Segall carved out his own shelf in the neo-psych garage alongside SF compatriots and collaborators Sic Alps and Thee Oh Sees. As an exploration of the space between Cro-Magnon fuzz and atmospheric acoustic psych, Ty Segall continues to crank out the best new garage rock from San Francisco. -Darling Darling

Ambient singer songwritery folk. “She’s Got Pipes.”-SF Bay Guardian

Chantelle has played with Chris Pureka, and Andrea Gibson, . She has also gotten the chance to work with Chuck Prophet on her album “No One’s Believer.” She has been featured in CRAFT Magazine, Fluffy Co, Commonwealth Commercial, and on NBC’s “Trauma.”

When Chantelle was 12 she bought her first folk cd. It was Joan Baez Greatest Hits and she got it for “Diamonds and Rust.” She has had music in her ever since then. “I can remember my mom walking home and the package was addressed to her. I opened it knowing I would get in trouble, but when she saw me singing she just kind of let it be.”

Chantelle began to sing and started writing music. At the age of 20 she picked up the guitar. “The guitar was really the missing piece for me.” She has been playing in San Francisco, the Northwest, Los Angeles and around the country since then.

Fleeting Trance is the songwriting & recording project of Manasseh Bernal. Fleeting Trance is currently based in Oakland, California and can be seen fairly often in bay area clubs and occasionally on tour. The current line-up consists of drums, bass, guitar, keyboard, pedal & lap steel guitar. Manasseh began playing guitar & writing songs in 1996 and started playing out in 1998. Fleeting Trance released it’s debut CD entitled “17″ in May of 2009 and is due to release it’s second C.D. in January 2010.

“Named for the number of tracks, 17 is classic folksy, bluesy americana. What listeners might not expect is the occasional reggae influences that show up on some songs. The addition of reggae is a nice touch, and fits well with the band’s overall sound. Lyrics are entertainly messed up.”
