Everyday People plays a mix of country and country-rock music. This includes new and contemporary tunes along with classics by the pioneers of country music. Everyday People is comfortable and capable on the big stage as well as with large crowds. This was evidenced as they rocked the house before 18,000 at Mishawaka’s Summerfest. Everyday People has opened for national recording artists Neal McCoy, Randy Travis and country music icon Loretta Lynn. True professionals, they also opened for Terry Clark in an outside concert during a typical midwest thunderstorm at Mishawaka’s finest brew pub.

Everyday People play covers by contemporary artists such as Kasey Chambers, JoDee Messina, Sarah Evans, Dixie Chicks, Alison Kraus, Linda Rondstadt and Bonnie Raitt just to name a few. They also pride themselves on knowing traditional standards by Country music Legends such as Hank Williams, Patsy Cline and Loretta Lynn.

The Deep Fried Pickles are a delectable musical treat. They pride themselves on making JUGaBilly HOKUM music. Founded in ’00 as a jug band, ‘DFPP’ now mixes other American roots forms into the breading batter as well. Bluegrass, Hokum, Folk, Rockabilly, Blues and Honky-Tonk tunes pepper their set lists.

Recent performance venues include Wakarusa, TELLURIDE BLUEGRASS FESTIVAL, High Sierra and SUNSHINE DAYDREAMS in West Virginia, as well as picnics, bars, baptisms, theaters, bathtubs and festivals across North America.

The Pickles have appeared with Nickel Creek, Wilco, My Morning Jacket, Gov’t Mule, Umphrey’s McGee, BELA FLECK, Buckethead, String Cheese Incident, Yonder Mountain String Band, George Clinton, Derek Trucks Band and ANI DE FRANCO, among many others on their festival tours.

The band has been featured in SPIN, NO DEPRESSION and RELIX music magazines, as well as the online ‘zines such as Jambase and Glide. The DFPP has performed on national TV in their PBS kids debut.

What sets the Pickles apart as a band is the fact that they can play kids shows, adult shows and then host a “KinderMusic ” kids instrument building workshop all in the same day. Their flexibility and devotion to music education have made them a popular act to book for festival promoters and talent buyers.

The band was featured in an episode of ‘Postcards From Buster’, a spin-off of “Arthur” on PBS Kids, which has millions of viewers worldwide. The show aired on October 11th. The episode was entitled, ‘Meet Me at the Fair’. (..101) Check your local listings for re-broadcast airtimes.

The DFPP’s second album, ‘Attack of the Pickles’, was released in September of 2003. Its single, ‘Picklejuice’ won a John Lennon Songwriting Contest Finalist Award for 2003. The Pickles also make an appearance on new new Fred Eaglesmith tribute album, ’20 Odd Hollers II’. The latest DFPP album to surface is named ‘Live from the Trailer Trash Tour’, and was released in the Spring of 2005. The band is currently recording a new album, ‘Whitewood Creek’, which will be available just before their Summer 2006 U.S. tour. CD’s are available for sale on CDbaby.com.

REVIEWS

“Daniel Daniel and Alan Selvidge’s music is like a snapshot from America’s Heartland.”
–South Bend Tribune

“We immediately fell in love with them. They’re fun, they’re funky, they represent an interpretation of American culture where you can throw a bunch of cool things together and make music out of it.”
–Natacha Estebanez, Producer PBS Kids

“Parents and kids alike should be ‘pickled pink’ by the new CD from those purveyors of hillbilly Americana-jug-band music, The Deep Fried Pickle Project”
–Kalamazoo Gazette

“3 stars! — Kids will find ‘Attack of the Pickles’ outright hilarious, while their parents will find it surprisingly intriguing. The band does a rap song ‘Gettin’ Cheesay,’ that’s more down than most rap songs on children’s albums.”
–M-live

“Campfire music for adults!”
–Art Enthusiast

“…Deep Fried Pickles give you the same feeling when you listen to their music- full and satisfied.”
–SPIN Magazine

“They play hick-a-billy jamgrass like nobody’s business.”
–Telluride Bluegrass Festival Program

“The best No-Name Band I’ve ever seen!”
–Music Lover, Lansing, MI

You know the story already. A couple of guys from different worlds meet at a jam session and discover a common love for music. They talk, pick a bit and form a band. It happens everyday, right? Right.

The difference is what each musician brings to the stage, Here we have a talented, young fiddler with a passion for history. Another is an old hippie finally chasing the music that has haunted him all his life. They are fortunate to have recently been joined by James Bellis. A world traveler and gentleman, he is also one of the area’s premier clawhammer banjo players.

What you get is rousing Old Time music.

Old Time music is story telling music and the Pine Creek Rounders love to tell those stories. Old Time is also the original party music so be ready to do more than tap your toes. Close your eyes, you’re going on a movin’ & shakin’ ride to the past.

Kellirae Boann and Craig Schroeder are an acoustic duo that plays an eclectic mix of vocal music that draws from some of the best of country, folk and pop.  Kellirae’s rich and distinctive voice is accompanied by Craig’s jazz-influenced acoustic guitar stylings.  Quite often, vocals take center stage as the two sing in a close harmony reminiscent of the great vocal duos of days gone by.
