Organ Fairchild
Hailed as a “fast-rising NY band” by Live For Live Music, and a group that’s “making waves in the scene” by JamBase, Organ Fairchild craft their organ-trio-meets-rock-band sound — described as “adventurous, vital and alive” by Glide Magazine — by synthesizing influences ranging from Soulive and Medeski Martin & Wood to The Grateful Dead, Steely Dan and the Meters. And when they’re on stage completely captivating an audience without a bass player – and nobody singing – there is no confusing them for any other artist on today’s scene. As FunkCity.net writes, “Get ready to be bowled over by this terrific trio – old school funk fusion with new era notions of jam.”

His new album “Dopamine” explores the emotional highs and lows that keep us chasing the feeling music gives us.” “Anna Mertson is a singer/songwriter from Westfield, NC – a tiny community in the foothills of the mountains. She performs full time, but her heart belongs to the craft of songwriting and storytelling by using experiences and visuals to guide the pen.
