Marc's life has been about pursuing twin passions: creating and recording his American roots songs, and exploring remote areas of the desert and mountain West. After signing his first publishing contract while in law school, he fronted rock bands and performed regularly in New York City clubs like CBGB, Wetlands, and The Knitting Factory. All through this period, he'd find ways to get into the West, picking up details from fellow wilderness junkies about off the beaten path locales and filing them away for future reference. On one of these trips, he became intrigued by the cover of THE BIG IT, by A.B. Guthrie, a book of short stories he found on a revolving metal rack in a Navajo reservation trading post. It got him thinking about using his travels to create a set of songs in the cultural tradition of writers like Guthrie and visual artists like John Ford and Frederick Remington. Marc and Co-Producer Mike Ricciardi now present RIDE, ten cinematic recordings reflecting his romantic connection to the American West and exploring the value of its myths to contemporary culture.

Marc's performed at Austin's South by Southwest Music Festival and The Kerrville Folk Festival and has opened shows for Bob Dylan and other national acts. His song THE LAST ONE has been performed by Richie Havens at disarmament rallies in the US and Europe, quoted in the NY Times, and featured on The CBS Evening News.

Julia Weldon is a wide-eyed lover of life and prolific, NYC based folk-pop musician, guitarist, and songwriter. In her deeply personal percussive guitar-driven songs she plays with urban & rural memes. Intensely felt lines - from sardonic to heartfelt - weave stories of loss, regret, debauchery, incest, love & desire. It's the harsh city edges, the liminal open fields, the rough and soft sounds that make her music a pleasant paradox that draws immediate attention. Julia has opened for Brownbird, Melissa Ferrick and Bitch; headlines at reputable venues like the Knitting Factory, City Winery, Mercury Lounge, Webster Hall and plays nationally. Festivals include NYC's CMJ 2012, BoulderFest 2012, the 2010 Women's Experimental Music Festival in Brooklyn, and Chicago's 2008 Decibelle Festival.
