Madam Radar

 Embracing the spirit of Americana with Rock n’ Roll sex appeal – Madam Radar is an Americana rock band that punches hard with its explosive harmonies, soaring guitar solos, and eclectic original tunes.                 

 MOTEL is their latest album, produced by Steve Berlin of Los Lobos, delivering passionate guitar work, big harmonies, and songwriting that cuts straight to the bone. Built on stories from nearly a decade of traveling together,  the family band’s signature blend of Americana, rock, and southern soul captures the electricity of their live shows with the polish of a seasoned studio effort

Paul McDonald

Born in Alabama and baptized in the dive bars of the southeast, Paul McDonald first made noise with the Grand Magnolias, a roots-rock outfit, before catching fire in the public eye during American Idol's 2011 run.

When the bright lights blurred and the cameras turned, the man behind the voice slipped into the shadows where he did what real artists do: He lived, he lost, and he wrote.  Retreating to Nashville, that holy city of reinvention, Paul stitched himself back together with worn boots, hard songs, and a new band called The Mourning Doves.

Now, in 2025, the giant has stirred the release of "So Long to the Dark Side" – a gospel tinged reckoning wrapped in cosmic Americana and lit with songs that sound like they were scribbled on the edge of a breakdown and sung back from the brink.  Raised on Petty, Parsons, and pain, Paul McDonald is not chasing trends, he's conjuring something older and truer.  His live performances are equal parts revival and rock séance. 

MADAM RADAR

Embracing the spirit of Americana with Rock n’ Roll sex appeal MADAM RADAR punches hard with their explosive harmonies, soaring guitar solos, and eclectic original tunes. The band is a tangled web of family and friends; Jace Cadle (rhythm guitar/vocals) is married to Kelly Green (lead guitar/vocals) who is the sister of Kody Lee (drums/vocals) who is married to Violet Lea (bass/vocals).

 Fronted by the trio of Kelly, Violet, and Jace, MADAM RADAR is a revolving door of high-energy singer-songwriters, each with their own perspective and style that magically seem to overlap like the layers of a kaleidoscope. With all four members of the band providing harmonies, MADAM RADAR is a wall of colorful sound that changes shape, demanding your undivided attention. 

West Texas Exiles

There’s Texas, and then there’s West Texas. You can leave it behind, but you can’t let it go.

Nobody knows that better than the West Texas Exiles. Love of music and a restlessness to wander from their hometowns of Lubbock, El Paso and Amarillo brought them together in Austin. With the release of their debut EP, Volume I, they showcased the talents of their three singer / songwriters: Marco Gutierrez, Daniel Davis, Colin Gilmore with masterful performances by bassist Eric Harrison and drummer Trinidad Leal. The band are now hard at work on their highly anticipated first ever full-length album, set to release in 2025. With influences from The Flatlanders and Buddy Holly to Vampire Weekend and Jason Isbell, they are reinvigorating the music scene with a modern interpretation of the lone star vernacular. They’ve quickly grown from their inception a couple of years ago, playing SXSW, AmericanaFest and Hardly Strictly Bluegrass Fest and garnering national radio play. Plaudits like 2022 International Songwriting Competition spotlight their rhythmic and lyrically honest sound. The West Texas Exiles’ style truly evokes the ghosts of southwest Americana.
