2. Christine Havrilla & Gypsy Fuzz with Mama’s Black Sheep
Award-winning Philadelphia native Christine Havrilla brings her “well-built, catchy, smart tunes” (Upstage Magazine) to audiences everywhere, touring solo and also with the support of her band, Gypsy Fuzz. With a New EP released in the Spring of 2024, Christine continues to create and record with her band and share new music at venues, festivals, and house concerts! Last year’s 2023 EP and single, “California Night”, is a blend of 90s guitar and late 60s harmonies wrapped up in this catchy rocker about sharing the California Coast & it’s memories. WXPN’s The Key raves, “Rock and roll singer-songwriter Christine Havrilla has been a local favorite since the 90s, and her high-energy music is kindred is spirit with Sheryl Crow, Grace Potter, Brandi Carlile, and Lucinda Williams!” Christine utilizes the soft gritty texture of her vocals to express warmth and honesty listeners quickly embrace as well as her aggressive, raw, trash-style guitar playing and looping.

6. Devil’s Brigade (Formerly American Rogues)
THE DEVIL’S BRIGADE, formally known as the First Special Service Force, was a highly decorated Canadian/American commando unit in WWII. Their legendary heroism struck fear into the hearts of Nazis and their legacy can be traced directly to the Canadian Special Operations Regiment and Green Berets. The American Rogues have long supported Veterans and by becoming THE DEVIL’S BRIGADE we seek to not only honour those who serve but also reflect our own Canadian/American identity.
