CANDACE & ROBERT MACHE. New Orleans transplants Candace and Robert have made a musical home in Memphis. Candace is a splendid singer and songwriter. This is her Otherlands Live debut and we are excited. Her partner on stage is her husband Robert Mache. Robert is an in demand multi-instrumentalist who has lately been backing Dan Montgomery and Nancy Apple here in Memphis and a host of great bands all over the US and Europe. He was a founding member of The Continental Drifters.
DAN MONTGOMERY brings a rock music sensibility to the singer-songwriter genre, along with the ability to shine a strong light into some very dark corners.
Rosetta, Please, his third CD, delivers a bar-stool story with a musical punch that keeps you coming back for more. Not for those who want a double-dose of sugar with their music, but highly recommended for the rest of us.
Dan Montgomery’s ability to spot people you’d never notice and turn them into characters you can’t resist is uncanny. Shaun Dale - Cosmik Debris
Dan Montgomery returns with the follow up to his acclaimed debut solo CD Man From Out Of State with his newest offering: Rosetta, Please (a love story). A nine song story of two people. One fresh out of jail. One walking the streets, working the streets. What tears them apart? What keeps them together? Rosetta was noted by Andria Lisle (Mojo, Oxford American Journal) as one of the records to look out for.

AMELIA WHITE. Raised In Virginia, and based in Nashville, Amelia White cut her musical teeth in the New England area, in the same scene that produced Mary Gauthier, Lori McKenna and SarahBorges. Her music has been described as hard rocking -folkin -alt-art country… But her songs and strong melodic style rise above categorization. Her Albums BLUE SOUVENIRS and BLACK DOVES (funzalo Records 2006) put her on the map with critical acclaims nationwide, steady non-com radio play,and appearances on E-Town and NPR’s All Songs Considered. A few TV Placements further exposed her talents.
Now with a new album in hand entitled MOTORCYCLE DREAM Amelia continues to prove that she’s a prolific writer with something to say and intensity to her cinematic lyrics that will stand the test of time. She’s already attracted a partnership with Art Ford Music Agency (L.A.) to shop the new tunes to TV and Film. MOTORCYCLE DREAM was recorded mostly live in Nashville with Producer Neilson. MOTORCYCLE DREAM explores addiction, political and personal bullies, her dog’s near death, stranger’s heart-aches, and new love. Amelia is known for her unadulterated live performances and charisma. She is a true artist and will continue to write and play her songs regardless of lack of funding, current trends, or gas prices.
