It utilizes the humanly impossible to reveal the truth of human nature, which can be a moving experience. Brooklyn's SoftSpot is..."

Bibis Ellison " Hand made earrings by Jessie Williams, dress by Funktional, shoes by Jeffrey Campbell. In honor of Valentine's Day, we are introducing all of you to one of our favorite foxes for this month's featured musician - Bibis Ellison!!! First off, how frickin' cute is she in that pic with the unicorns!??!?! GAH! She's all like - 'Hey, yeah... Hi y'all. Have you met my friends Disco and Lilah? Yeah, they're all right.' I can only dream to be so cool when hanging out with unicorns. Winged unicorns..." On Bibis: (click to read & hear more on Bibis' featured musicians page as well as download free mp3s!) Cazwell "This featured musician shoot may have been the most demanding and difficult few days we've ever had to put in for any of our band shoots. It was tough! Everything had to be perfect - - first, we had to redecorate the bathroom. It just wouldn't be right until there was a pink tinsel Christmas tree in the shower. And then we had to pick out the perfect outfits that we were sure would make Cazwell want to marry us - all of us. And then we had to brush up on his oeuvre so that we would be able to have an intellectual conversation about it. Really..."

Gordon & Cilla "With the holidays getting closer, as you can imagine, we get a little busier here - with us being a retail store and all. And with this added busy-ness, comes a little extra stress. As a matter of fact, I had no idea how much stress I had been harboring in my shoulders until Gordon Merrick and Cilla Danone walked into the studio for their featured musician photo shoot. I can honestly say I have never in my life, ever craved..." On Cilla: (click to read & hear more on Gordon & Cilla's featured musicians page as well as download some free mp3s!) The Kingston Springs "Kingston Springs is a small town outside of Nashville, Tennessee. None of the members of the band The Kingston Springs was born in that town, but they all ended up there at a very young age. I can't help but think it's going to make a great scene in the beginning of the movie that someone, someday will make about their lives. These little babies in their parent's arms as they travel from different corners of the country - all four families..."

Onward, Soldiers "Most days, our featured musician interviews are quite informal. They take place during the photo shoot, generally between glasses of wine or champagne, with lots of music, chatter and people in the background. Or, it is not even an interview in any sense, but more of a night or two out on the town, wandering in the ILM, that gets summed up in a couple of paragraphs. But this was not our usual interview. First off..." On J.D.: On Kevin: On Lincoln: On Sean: (click to read & hear more on Onward, Soldier's featured band page as well as download some free mp3s!) Rayland Baxter "Although Rayland Baxter hails from the outskirts of Nashville, Tennessee, he seems to really like the ocean, because he comes here to our little coastal town quite often. We at EoU could not be happier about that, and anytime he is playing..."

Doug Keith "'I love songs and I love lyrics,' Doug Keith states. 'I don’t believe in throwaway songs, and I don’t believe that the single is the future. I love albums, and I love it when an artist or band thinks of an album as the thing itself, not just the vehicle for one or two songs.'..."

North Elementary "The Chapel Hill, NC band North Elementary is a musical collective that orbits around the songs of John Harrison. With an inventive and soulful approach to songs, North Elementary creates moments that are beautifully original yet surprisingly familiar..."

Benji Hughes "Hailing from Charlotte, North Carolina, Benji Hughes spends much of his time masterminding his blend of inventive rock and ballads. At times earnest, at others whimsical, Benji is equally adept at keyboards and guitar. He loves beer but he loves women even more..."

Fayaway "Fayaway is an indie rock band from Wilmington, North Carolina, composed of two (and sometimes three) members: L'Che, who is in charge of tech, origami, and continuity, J.J., who controls the singing, jangling, and intensity, and (sometimes) Cilla, who contributes to the vocals and lowness..."
