Bio:  Dennis  Caravello has a sound steeped in roots music and while his approach to  songwriting stays true to most things modern, it is the music of  yesterday that continues to fuel his craft. Dennis was born and raised  just northwest of Chicago and now resides in Nashville, Tennessee.

Zach Pietrini’s Midwestern, indie americana songwriting aesthetic is the  sonic embodiment of a well-worn denim jacket. At the forefront of the  Americana resurgence, Pietrini—lead vocalist and guitarist for his  namesake band—takes an everyman’s approach to the genre with a knack for  honest storytelling and a wistfulness that comes across in both the  music and lyrics. The band takes its cues from Tom Petty, Bruce  Springsteen, and David Ramirez, reinterpreting and rejuvenating American  roots styles through a contemporary lens. Pietrini’s songs “situate him  at the confluence of all that an urban Millennial audience finds  relatable” (Milwaukee Magazine), performing old-soul themes of ennui,  regret, disappointment, and nostalgia with a modern twist.
