Caviar & Grits is a 5-piece original soul/R&B band from Binghamton, NY. The band was born in the fall of 2019, when the stars aligned and the some of the area’s raddest and most experienced musicians found eachother in the local open-mic scene. Caviar & Grits’ sound is reminiscent of Amy Winehouse, Lake Street Dive, and Sammy Rae & The Friends. Captivating and energetic, the members of the band have a genuine connection onstage that invites audience members to be part of the experience. Songwriter Michaela Clark leads the way with her sultry, expressive voice and acoustic guitar, joined by Tyson Alson (Metrognome) on keys, Joe Kollar (Driftwood) on guitar, Jim Lomonaco (Yolk) on bass, and Moses Valle (Kid Bess & the Magic Ring) on drums. C&G’s first studio album “Ticket to Flavortown” is available on all major streaming services. The group’s follow-up EP “The C&G Spot” is expected to be released this summer.

Banshee Tree is a high energy quartet that blends modern indie, trance and psychedelic rock with old school Django inspired jazz. Using traditional instruments through a range of pedals, Banshee Tree ties the styles and sounds of modern music to the earthy roots of acoustic music in a whole new way. Their live show is a wild dance party with a great deal of improvisation while remaining grounded in indie style songwriting. There is nothing quite like it on the scene
