Rolling Thunder is four veteran Bay Area musicians who reimagine and reinvigorate the masterworks of Bob Dylan. More than a mere tribute band, Rolling Thunder puts its own stamp on universally known Dylan classics and deeper cuts alike. Dylan’s songs and messages remain as relevant today as they were when he wrote them — in some cases more than 60 years ago. Rolling Thunder’s interpretations infuse the songs with new life, and remind us of Dylan’s towering musical and cultural influence.  Whether you like to dance, sing along, or quietly absorb the magic of Dylan’s poetry, Rolling Thunder is for you.

Borrowed Timers is a band from the Bay Area. Contemplative, dreamy, sometimes a little rage-y. Secret Emchy Society- Secret Emchy Society has been named by TheBoot.com as one of the Ten Queer Country Bands for Real Country Music Fans to Listen To, a quadruple nominee for Best Live Band by the Bay Area Reporter, is featured in the documentary Lavender Outlaws, and landed in End of Year 'Best Of' lists from No Depression, Concert Hopper, and the Atlanta Auditory Association. Their raw, honest, and authentic listening experience is a welcome middle finger to modern country, offering up a brand of smoke-filled honky-tonk that's traditional as they come -- albeit delivered with a fiery, punk disposition.

ICY HOT MUSIC FOR COOL PEOPLE! The passionate and sincere Debby Fries is the band’s lead vocalist, pianist and founder. Growing up in Ohio, she was surrounded by a musical family that instilled in her a genuine love of music. Influenced by the sounds of Bonnie Raitt, Linda Ronstadt and Janis Joplin she found herself singing in the church choir and was a member of her school band playing many instruments including the saxophone. With The Beatles as a huge influence she got her first guitar at age 13. She enjoys performing well known songs as well as originals. She would pay her passion and love of music forward, when allowing her soon to be born son Alex Fries to experience the primal sounds and rhythms of the great Rolling Stones at a show in Oakland, California. His musical desires were clearly set in motion as he raised the rafters in the living room pounding his drums with his musical Mom playing the piano. In Summer of 2019 they launched  The Freeze 32*F. They soon welcomed the melodic sound of seasoned bassist Alex Barriere, the intense sounds of lead guitarist Omar Cruz and with the spirited, charismatic vocalist Alleta Nash, things are now feeling cooler than ever!

X Confidence is a sumptuous, retro blend of 80s synth, 70s groove & today's sensibilities, a confection of sweet perfection that recalls synth sequencers, silky saxophone work, and deft rhythms with vocal work that's breathy at one turn and soulful at the next. more.

DREAD is a powerhouse fusion of metal, punk, and thrash, known for their unrelenting energy and fierce, boundary-pushing sound. Hailing from Vacaville CA, the band has quickly earned a reputation for their chaotic, high-octane performances and their ability to blend the raw aggression of punk with the intricate heaviness of metal and thrash.

Formed in 2024 DREAD is made up of five seasoned musicians who bring their own unique style and influences to the table. Duce drives the rhythm with his thunderous drumming, laying a foundation that is as tight as it is brutal. Sevrin’s lead guitar work slices through the mix, blending technical mastery with blistering speed. Connor’s rhythm guitar complements Sevrin's solos with powerful, relentless riffs, while Shawn's bass keeps the whole operation grounded with a deep, punishing groove. At the front of it all is Logan, whose ferocious vocals cut through the chaos, delivering lyrics with an intensity that mirrors the rawness of the music.

Together, they create a sound that is at once familiar yet entirely their own, blending elements of thrash’s speed, punk’s raw aggression, and metal’s power and precision. DREAD’s music hits hard and fast, with lyrics that are as defiant as they are thought-provoking.

With a growing fanbase and a reputation for explosive live shows, DREAD is steadily carving out their place in the heavy music scene. The band is currently focused on writing new material and planning their next tour, promising to take their sound to even greater heights in the coming months.
