A long time ago, at the dawn of the Atomic Age, a succession of no-good punks and ill-mannered teenagers took the best of American roots music — hard-partying honky tonk country, searing gutbucket blues and lonesome hillbilly twang — and distilled it into a potent moonshine known as rockabilly. This combustible formula, passed down through the generations, forms the heart of the revved-up stylings of Delilah DeWylde.
Delilah DeWylde got her start in 2004. Just like rockabilly originators Johnny Cash, Bill Haley and Carl Perkins, this Michigander cut her teeth on steel-guitar driven country in the style popularized by Hank Williams, Ernest Tubb and Webb Pierce. But the draw of the big beat was irresistible, and over time the band’s approach has become sharper and tighter. Not self-consciously retro, Delilah remains committed to hand-crafted American music that stands at the crossroads of creativity and craftsmanship, liberally drawing from honky tonk country, rockabilly and surf music Fender Amp Bandleader Delilah DeWylde (upright bass/lead vocals) is veteran of the West Michigan music scene and an alumna of rockabilly institution DangerVille. Her out-sized stage presence is the centerpiece of the show — one minute singing sweetly, the next slapping her bass into submission.
Next to the sound and fury of Miss Delilah stands cool character Lee Harvey on electric guitar. His serious demeanor on-stage reveals his reverence for the precision and technique of the "original" guitar gods— the likes of Paul Burlison, Billy Byrd, Cliff Gallup, Grady Martin, Dick Dale, Luther Perkins, Scotty Moore and Don Rich. Taking their task seriously, this trio plies its trade the old-fashioned way - live and in person, logging more than 120 gigs a year throughout the Midwest and beyond. The band also has recorded three LPs (as they used to call 'em): 2008's Honky Tonk Heart, 2010's The Price You Pay and Win My Love - recorded in 2012... See MoreSee Less
Levi Britton is an indie/folk/rock artist who hails from Traverse City, Michigan. Growing up around music sparked his drive to make it his profession. At age 20 Levi moved to Chicago, playing down in the subways, Potbelly restaurants, and any gig he could find. Eventually Britton co-founded his band, Down the Line, that went on to release five albums and toured the country for ten years with artists such as The Gin Blossoms, Pat Benatar, Peter Frampton, America, Lighthouse, and others.
In 2011, Levi and DTL band mate Dan Myers formed Stolen Silver, releasing two albums—most recently in June 2014. Stolen Silver has been touring with actor Gary Sinise and The Lieutenant Dan Band, playing stadiums and military bases in support of U.S. troops and their families.
In addition to playing with Stolen Silver, Levi launched a solo career at a whole new level in 2014. After years of fans clamoring for a solo project, Levi hit the studio to record all new, original music. His first solo record, Inside, is a blend of folk, indie-rock and soul with intricate, tasty vocals and masterful instrumentation.... See MoreSee Less

Little Dipper – Northern Michigan’s Premier ’90s Country Revivalists. Born from a shared love of twang, tight harmonies, and the golden age of country music, Little Dipper brings the sound of the ’90s roaring back to life with honky-tonk swagger and a knowing wink. Hailing from the backroads and beer joints of Northern Michigan, this band of seasoned musicians isn’t just playing the hits—they’re living them. The lineup includes: Aaron Dye, whose work with StoneFolk continues to make waves in the Michigan folk-rock scene, plays the heartbreak machine (pedal steel). Mark Goike, a true utility knife of a drummer, keeps the train rolling with precision and groove, splitting his time between Little Dipper and holding down the beat for local jazz artist Robert Abate. James Hart, a staple of the state’s live music circuit and a driving force behind the cover supergroup The Daylites, demonstrates that he has friends in low places, those friends being the notes ringing from his bass guitar. Mike Leasia and Tom O’Brien, a duo forged in the fire of Hot n Bothered (Traverse City's favorite old time band), handle the keys and guitar respectively, the latter gaining notice in the boundary-pushing indie-pop-bossanova group Metal Bubble Trio. Rounding out the lineup is Jonathan Timm, singer/songwriter/fiddler who saw the light and now dedicates himself to reviving the era when country music truly peaked.
From boot-stomping anthems to heartstring-pulling ballads, Little Dipper delivers the songs you grew up loving—played the way they were meant to be played. Whether it's an Alan Jackson shuffle, a Shania-style singalong, or the deep cuts only the true fans remember, Little Dipper is here to bring back the soundtrack of pickup trucks, neon lights, and Saturday nights gone sideways.
For lovers of steel guitar, story songs, and the kind of country that still had a little dirt on its boots, Little Dipper is your band. Saddle up, Michigan—this is the ’90s country revival you didn’t know you needed... See MoreSee Less
