The Bomb Sawyers are a two-man band from Chicago, Illinois. Their hard-rocking, lyrics-driven music draws from such influences as Buddy Holly, Flogging Molly, Johnny Cash and Neutral Milk Hotel. Jason Horwitz, originally of Houston, provides rowdy, relentless drumming and soulful vocal harmonies. Ben Saller, a Chicago native, brings his own brand of intense singing along with frenetic guitar-work. The Bomb Sawyers love nothing more than lighting a crowd’s fuse and causing an explosion of boot-stomping, hand-clapping, knee-slapping and whiskey-drinking while they wail the night away.

Hawaiian Lion started as a trio between drummer John McNulty, bassist John Tom, and songwriter Christopher Church. Eventually they climbed to the top of the mountain and stared into the eyes of a mystical beast – Randy the Ram. Now a newly formed four piece band, Hawaiian Lion is hoping to tickle souls with a ten foot boom stand.
