Rhea Silvia
Grandview - The Grandview sound is a combination of styles that have influenced its members over the years; from the punk rock beginnings shared by some members, to the rock and acoustic backgrounds of others. They are making music that has integrity and substance, and is accessible to anyone who is willing to listen. Grandview has shared the stage with many big names such as The Click Five, Big City Rock, The Juliana Theory, and Mae.
Kingsfoil - Kingsfoil is a Pennsylvania based rock quartet with a focus on songwriting, arrangements, and energetic live performances. Since forming as an acoustic duo in 2002, Kingsfoil has successfully booked a national tour, independently recorded and produced two full length albums (‘03 and ‘04) as well as cutting an acoustic EP in Nashville in ‘05. They also recently released a 5 song EP recorded at Wrightway Studios in Baltimore. After selling thousands of their CDs and building a strong following in PA their sound and their fan base has expanded throughout the mid-atlantic area. As a four piece they self-booked their second tour (this time along the southeast coast) and have played with bands such as: Saves the Day, Matchbook Romance, Lovedrug, The Click Five, Peppers Ghost, Rooney, Mat Kearney, The Last Goodnight, Cute Is What We Aim For and The Justin King band.
Rhea Silvia - The band uses a rich blend of soulful vocals and unique bass lines supplied by Barshinger, while McClain adds driving percussion to fuel the undertow of the songs. Mixed with the intricate and complex guitar work of Adams and the astounding overall abilities on multiple instruments by Braun, Rhea Silvia leaves you with a musical experience that makes you move, think and want only more!

The Luv Gods
The Luv Gods - We started playing way back in 2003. For those of you that can't count, thats a few years ago. We're all veteran players. Some of us even know each other. We're having fun playing, entertaining you and earning every cover charge. In return you entertain us by smiling, dancing and keeping most of your body parts in your clothes. There's some things we tolerate, like telling us what to play. Then there's some things we won't tolerate, like telling us how to play it. We'll take care of that end. Featuring Shea & Steve Zero from the Sharks.

Darcie Miner
Gullifty's Downstairs
The Thrives
The Underwater - Dan and Matt of Local Rock Superheroes The Underwater play an acoustic set.
Darcie Miner - New CD release (Fragile). Influential Philadelphia station WXPN named Darcie one of its Artists to Watch. Darcie and her band made history by performing on MTV’s Advance Warning as the first unsigned act ever to play in prime-time on the channel. Darcie also made an appearance on the new Star Search, hosted by Arsenio Hall, where she finished second in a controversial decision. The Darcie Miner Band logged in a hectic touring schedule which saw them build a strong regional following along the Atlantic seaboard, opening for the likes of Edwin McCain, Patty Griffin, Heart, Richard Thompson, Jeffrey Gaines, Wyclef Jean, Beth Hart and Jeffrey Gaines. The delightful Darcie is a Gullifty's favorite.
The Thrives - The Thrives can best be described as an indy-power-pop trio clearly influenced by the music of the 80’s and 90’s. The three members, David Kemper, John Bolling and Brad Stackpole started playing together back in 1995 in a band only slightly known in the Harrisburg area called Lunarshade. After a few years of other projects or lack there-of, they have become musically reacquainted. Kemper as singer, song writer and rythm guitar player understands the power of a pithy word simply attached to a catchy melody. His visual descriptions of love and relationship are earthy, sensual, unique and somehow universal. Listen for the dynamic juxtoposition between sweet melodies wrapped around yearning lyrics and breakthrough declarations of tongue-in-cheek-angst-ridden-imperfection. John Bolling's relaxed and consistent bass playing is backed up by years of listening to the great bands from across the pond. Fans have learned to watch for his sheepish smile as he gets wrapped up in the joy of performing. Finally, there is the famous Brad Stackpole on drums. He has sat in with quite a few local groups from Deviation Theory to his recent project with A Utopian Skyline (formerly The Midnight Drive), along with his valued participation with The Thrives. Brad’s influences are the most diverse of the group. He is more than accomplished at playing Latin, Jazz, Rock and Metal in addition to other styles.

HWJ recently had the honor of recording at Saturation Acres, a studio noted for its production of singer-songwriters, up and coming artists and national acts.

S.O.S.
Gullifty's Downstairs
Real Be Easy's
Martini Bros - for the past eleven years Deuce Gibb, Mike Mead, Rej Troup and Chad Matson have taken us on one hell of a ride. after only three practices, they recorded their first demo with Steve Ward and proceeded to open for "LIVE" in hersheypark stadium to a crowd of 17,000 screaming fans. playing a medley of rockabilly, surf and garage music, they became the "buzz band" of '95. Two years later they suffered the tragic, accidental death of their drummer and founding member, Chad Matson, but were determined to prevail with one consistent thought: to play great rock n' roll. Since then, the martini bros have played with Reverend Horton Heat, Dick Dale, Hank Williams III, Lee Rocker of The Stray Cats, and Johnny Winter, just to name a few. they've collaborated with national recording artist, Jeffrey Gaines, and have played coast-to-coast: from new york city to los angeles, nashville to the jersey shore, roof tops to trains, and riverboats to nearly every bar in Central PA.
S.O.S. - S.O.S. has that hook in their songs that will draw you in to soak in the meaning and truths behind each and every song. Just listen to the lyrics and you can hear the love, the hurt, and the joy that each band member has gone through in life. I would have to say that our influences are a wide range. Staind, Nirvana, Green Day, Blink 182, Foo Fighters and even some slower stuff like Dashboard Confessional, and Kid Rocks lighter side.
Real Be Easy's - Everyone’s true personality comes out in their playing. In this way your instrument becomes your voice and exposes a truly unique point of view. Three real easy guys from the New York City area are giving the people what they want in a way that begs you to be real easy. Songs people can relate to about outlandish themes targeting their hearts, minds and funny bones, while leaving their tear ducts intact. Real Be Easys are known to Funk out and Rock out in a proper late 60’s psychedelic fashion. The goal is to offer an alternative to dance music, with the same effects. Massive swarms of people packed like sardines into large halls, all grooving, and connected to one universal sound and energy that will transcend because it’s Live. In a world where the girls want to dance, and the guys want to bop their heads and bump the bass, Real Be Easys are the providers.

The Masquerade
The Underwater - Dan and Matt of Local Rock Superheroes The Underwater play an acoustic set.
The Blahs - The Blahs are known around the world as the "best worst band in rock & roll history", in the words of Widener University DJ Weezy E. What began humbly as a terrible band named Slug in Harrisburg in 2002 accidentally evolved into The Blahs. They are most remembered for their instant rise to international stardom with their kooky yet memorable tune "Sad Sandwich", contest winner for a spot in a popular Krustiaz Mayonnaise advertisement in 2004. However, being the conflicted band they were, The Blahs broke up early in their career in a seemingly irreconcilable split. Their differences and ethics held them far apart for years, but the memory of this quirky band was revived when a local magazine journalist and mutual friend, Jeremy Hanks, decided to write a novel to discover the origins of The Blahs and whatever happened to this band that caught so much attention from the world during, after, and beyond their triumphant return. This novel will be released with an album The Blahs are working on, featuring all new never before released songs from the band, as well as new tracks displaying their manifesto for the future of the music community. Robby Gallagher's new(old) band.
The Masquerade - With Ducky Duke, Leo Nessinger, Don Ross. The band has combined influences ranging from hardcore, rock, emo, indie, pop, and jazz to come up with sound thats versatile and fresh and a set of songs that are real and true and document the emotions, imaginations, and events that have inspired the project.
