CODY ALLEN JAMES & GOOD CO
Cody Allen James & Good Co. is an Alt-Country band from Kingston, Ontario. What began as a solo songwriting project by Cody Allen James has evolved into a bonafide country rock outfit founded on a simple principle: write good songs and play them well. While they, of course, draw from the masters of the craft: Bob Dylan, John Prine, Gram Parsons, and The Rolling Stones, Good Co. has also been unavoidably influenced by more contemporary artists such as Neutral Milk Hotel, Deer Tick, and Demon’s Claws to name a few.

THE HOLY GAMBLERS
Country music embodies dualities: hard work and hard livin’, the ranch and the road, Western wisdom mingled with questionable advice. The Holy Gamblers, hailing from Saskatchewan, Alberta, and Southern Ontario, straddle this line expertly. Their music, a blend of influences from the genre’s roots, features intricate guitar, pedal steel, and rich harmonies anchored by a relentless rhythm section. They epitomize the essence of a classic honky tonk band.

Rapidly ascending the ranks of the Canadian country music scene, The Holy Gamblers have recently graced prestigious stages such as Massey Hall, Lucknow’s Music In The Fields, and NXNE. Their electrifying performances and authentic sound have captivated audiences, solidifying their reputation as a formidable force in the country music landscape.

DENNIS BOUWMAN & THE WILD ROSES
The Wild Rose Orchestra is a good-timin’ country/rock band consisting of some of the best pickers and players Kingston has to offer. Kickin’ out your favourite tunes from Tom Petty to The Tragically Hip and Waylon Jennings to The Rolling Stones, The Wild Rose Orchestra will get your boots scootin’! This ensemble also features some of frontman Dennis Bouwman’s original songs, which flows seamlessly in and out of their curated selection of country/rock classics. If you’re lookin’ for a good time, you’ve found it with The Wild Rose Orchestra!
