Coming back to Columbus, It's Molehill! Joining them this time out are Erica Blinn and The Slang.
About Molehill: Chicago’s Molehill combines hard rock guitar riffs, blues, and the slightest hint of electro rock and R&B to create a sound that has been winning people over across the country... Sean Brna from Our Vinyl described Molehill as follows: “Drawing upon this ability to instantly alter their energy level, they use being incredibly in-sync with each other as a way to punctuate each song emotionally as well as musically (Nov, 2010).

About The Slang: Somewhere between retro-new wave, indie and alternative rock is the Slang based in Columbus, OH. The trio formed in 2007. Chris DeVille of The Columbus Alive said of their latest self titled CD "a diverse set of pop tunes that veers from Snow Patrol power balladry to horn-powered funk to guitar-driven alt-rock in the first three tracks alone." In the last year they have toured most of the midwest and eastern seaboard. Their new CD "The Slang" is out on Secret Song Records.
About Erica Blinn: "Erica Blinn spent her youth learning guitar, violin and harmonica, but she found her performing desire through a concert experience at age 7. After playing sit-in stints with groups, she formed a rock band at 16. At 24, Blinn is taking the next step by promoting a self-titled debut EP produced by Mike Landolt — whose work is featured on efforts by Blues Traveler, Maroon 5 and O.A.R., among other acts — and co-written with Watershed frontman Colin Gawel." -Kevin Joy Columbus Dispatch "Also she could beat you up." -Mike Folker WCLT, T100.
