The Mail emerged from the vibrant music scene of Boston in 2016, born out of a shared passion for sonic experimentation and storytelling. Composed of members Jeremy Van Cleave, Joe Campbell, Nathaniel Diamond-Jones, Matt Hines, and Curtis Hartshorn, this ensemble quickly made waves with their distinct blend of folk rock and alternative influences.
Driven by a mutual desire to carve out their own musical niche, The Mail's sound is characterized by Jeremy's introspective lyrics, Curtis’s unique drumming, Matt’s creative chord voicings, Joe’s deep bass pocket, and Nathaniel’s distinctive approach to fiddle. Together, they create a sonic landscape that is both emotive and immersive, weaving together layers of sound to evoke a range of emotions.
Since their formation, The Mail has been a fixture in Boston's music scene, captivating audiences with their electrifying live performances and dynamic stage presence. Their debut album, "Lights On," released in 2018, received widespread acclaim for its poignant lyricism and infectious melodies.
With each release, The Mail continues to push the boundaries of alternative music, exploring new sonic territories while staying true to their roots. As they embark on their musical journey, The Mail invites listeners to join them on a voyage of self-discovery and sonic exploration.
Don’t let the name fool you — Autumn Hollow can guide you through every month of the year. The Boston band’s homespun Americana shapeshifts with the seasons, weaving a warm strain of roots rock that's ideal for soaking in sunny days or providing shelter from the storm. Their EP Throw the House (released via Oak House Records) marks the group's first new material in seven years, quickly earning them features on 88.9 WERS and 92.5 The River. Even as the fall closes in, Autumn Hollow are just heating up: The band’s recent activity has sparked nominations at the Boston Music Awards and New England Music Awards, solidifying their status as veterans in the scene. As Autumn Hollow spread their tunes at storied venues like The Paradise Rock Club, Club Passim, and City Winery, their live storytelling fans those new embers into flames, keeping listeners in Boston -- and everywhere -- comforted for years to come.
Autumn Hollow
American Beauties is an original independent folk-rock band from Boston, Massachusetts. The music is reminiscent of the West Coast folk-rock bands of the late 1960s and early 1970s and mixes both contemporary and roots influences. The band’s sound has been likened to CSNY, The Byrds, Fairport Convention, The Jayhawks, and Wilco.
