Kevin McClure has two criteria for his music: the lyrics must be written earnestly and the instrumentation must be ambitious- utilizing a broad scope of music theory, timbre, and genre. Whether it’s music written for a quiet night at home or for blasting loud while driving down the highway, his songs are for people who want profound lyrics and eclectic musicality. This Omaha-based artist brings an exciting, high-energy live show that invites the crowd to something deeper than passive observers: he builds community.
For fans of The Beatles, Bruce Springsteen, Switchfoot, Bright Eyes, and Mat Kearney.

Americana, rock, folk, singer-songwriter, Andy Sydow is an accomplished multi-instrumentalist who’s lyrics paint a picture of poetic realism.

He draws comparisons to voices like Paul Simon and Jackson Browne, mixed with a roots rock vibe reminiscent of Tom Petty or Nathaniel Rateliff & The Night Sweats.
