There's also music from Portland-based The Strange Tones with their 'crime-a-billy' 50s surf/sci-fi/roots compositions, Atlanta soundtrack/incidental music artist Mark Cook from his new collection entitled Backwoods Chaos, and from Houston by guitarist/vocalist Hadden Sayers, from his recent release called Rolling Soul.
