Scott H. Biram With a banged-up guitar belching out tangled mess of blues, rock, hillbilly, punk and Texas country, Biram shows all you need sometimes is a blazing guitar, booze and raggedy amplifiers to stir up a ruckus. He's a one-man rocker, cranking a raw and dusty sound with occasional assist from harmonica and foot-stompin' percussion. Also on the bill: Trouble Walkers, Biggy Stardust and His Wretched Hive. Snug Harbor (Samir Shukla)
Jubal Kane A straight up harmonica-fronted, guitars-fueled blues band that understands the genre, both the gin joint partying blues as well as slow-burning jams. The NC band's blues boogie rockers are balanced with crying guitar slow numbers reminiscent of classic 70s outfits. Their slower numbers like "Buckwheats Blues" are rather sinewy, served up with just a hint of psychedelic touch. Double Door Inn (Shukla)
