Erin & The Wildfire
Erin & The Wildfire started as four college kids in Charlottesville, Virginia making music just for fun, but has grown into a flourishing, decade-long musical relationship among four best friends. E&TW, who now call Virginia’s capital city of Richmond home, have evolved their sound over the past ten years to where it currently stands firmly in the soul and indie-pop genres, drawing influences from a wide range of artists including Emily King, D’Angelo, YEBBA, Vulfpeck, and Donny Hathaway. The band blends the expressive, powerhouse vocals of frontwoman, Erin Lunsford, with the pop, funk, and indie sensibilities of bandmates Ryan Lipps (guitar), Nick Quillen (drums), and Matt Wood (bass). In addition to the core four, E&TW has recently found a kindred musical soul in keyboardist Stephen Roach, who has played with the band since 2019.
Theocles
A guitar, a mic, and a loop pedal is all Theocles needs to sweep an audience off their feet. With soulful vocals backed by rhythmic arrangements and self-created harmonies, the one-man-band show is just as likely to get people on their feet as move them to tears. His originals may be rooted in pop, but blends of every genre are on the table, from folk and funk to hip-hop and Motown. At the crux of it all, however, is a simple cohesive message: music is beautiful, and Theocles loves nothing more than bringing that beauty into the world for anyone who will listen.
