Next we’ve got 56 Hope Road as #17 in our Summer Camp Artist Series. They’re a 7-piece out of Chicago ( you know, the greatest city on earth? ) and they happen to have some pretty good tunes from what I’ve heard. I’m hoping to be able to check them out on May 6th with…

Movin’ right along with the Summer Camp Artist Series, we have Malcolm Palmer of Chicago at #16. Malcolm is an artist who blends the rarely-blended hip-hop and folk styles, and while I don’t have too many examples of his music, what I’ve heard so far is definitely his own. As of late 2005, he now…

Well Summer Camp Artist Series #14 is Public Property. They have one of the best bio’s I’ve read from an artist’s site in awhile, so I’m gonna let them explain it all to you. “Public Property is a 9-piece reggae band out of Iowa City, IA. While Public Property’s main inspiration is the sound of…

Summer Camp Artist Series addition #13 is a personal favorite of mine, The Reverend Peyton’s Big Damn Band.

The Chicago-based quartet just released their first full lenth album in March 2006, and had quite the…

Well we’ve finally reached the double digits here on the Summer Camp Artist Series, and lucky number 10 happens to be Pnuma Trio. The Memphis, Tennessee, trio can currently be found winding their way around the Eastern U.S. until they begin the festival circuit at the end of May, including our favorite and beloved Summer…

Ok, well I’ve finally gotten over my anger at WordPress that’s resided in me since Saturday, which means I can finally share the Family Groove Company post with you as our ninth Summer Camp Artist Series entry. It also means that I can write about the band now that I’ve seen them live, because I…

So we’ve got a special Summer Camp Artist Series addition for you today. Number 08, RAQ is a Burlington, VT-based quartet that happens to be playing in Champaign this Sunday night with Family Groove Company (Another Summer Camp Artist to be featured tomorrow). I will most definitely be at this show, since I’m on the…
