Greg Laswell is touring to support his latest project, Take a Bow. Take a Bow both closes and opens another chapter in the California native's life as a songwriter and a man, with songs of loss and hope recorded in a cabin in Arizona. It's an album that shows a deep understanding of where he's been personally and unlike a lot of songwriters he's also able to poke a little fun at himself. Laying himself on the line and taking chances both musically and lyrically, it's a collection that deserves attention and wide recognition.

 

Cary Brothers first gained national attention when one of his songs was featured on the cult classic & Grammy winning soundtrack from Garden State. Since then, Cary has toured with artists such as Imogen Heap,the Fray, KT Tunstall, Brandi Carlile and Matt Nathanson. Most recently, Cary has made a record called, "Under Control." Its mostly about finding that peace in the chaos when everything moves so fast. The country was changing, his friends were changing; finding success and also falling into the same dark places he, himself narrowly escaped. For Cary, it was about getting back to what he loved doing more than anything - writing music about the world around him.

 

Harper Blynn is comprised of a half-Jewish state champion baseball player from Chicago named Pete Harper, a curly-haired choir boy from Philadelphia called J.Blynn, a first-generation Indian man from Long Island named Sarab Singh and a tall Dutchman by the name of Whynot - yes, that is his name. J.Blynn and Sarab started making music in middle school. Pete joined up when he met J.Blynn on his first day in college. A few years later, when the three met Whynot, Harper Blynn was born. Out of the buzz generated in New York City, the band hit the road independently and began touring all over the US. All of Harper Blynn's four band members sing, bringing a unified and powerful emotional energy to the music. Lead vocals are shared between the two songwriters, Pete Harper and J.Blynn.

 

Harper Blynn will serve as the backing band for both Greg Laswell and Cary Brothers, as well.
