Band Name	Description
Captain Exploder	We're not terrible. We're not terribly good, either. We are a two-piece rock band from Columbus, Ohio. Our sound is a schizophrenic-but-fluid blend of catchy indie pop (i nearly typed "poop" here) and experimental riff-rock. We have never been able to choose between 3-minute rock songs and 6-minute spacey epics. So we play both. Then we go out for some frosty milkshakes. Mmmmm... milkshakes. You like milkshakes, don't you? [ 1 Photo ]
Carolina Chocolate Drops	The Carolina Chocolate Drops are a group of young African-American stringband musicians that have come to together to play the rich tradition of fiddle and banjo music in Carolinas’ piedmont. Rhiannon Giddens and Justin Robinson both hail from the green hills of the North Carolina Piedmont while Dom Flemons is native to sunny Arizona. [ 2 Concerts ] [ 2 Photos ]
Carrie Elkin	Laid-back, relationship-based acoustic, focusing on vocals. [ 3 Songs ]
Cathy Wicks	Why don't you hire Cathy Wicks for your next event! Hire her SOLO if you want the simple sultry songstress, or trio-countrified with the Catbirds (with Catfish & Junebug variously string'd), or, say, if you need to funk it out and party down with some horns, hire The Misprints Cat and her bands are fully equipped for any size venue (except football stadiums) and provide a double-wide array of song material. Please contact her by email for rates and dates. [ mail: catwixmusic_AT_yahoo.ignore_spam.c0m ] [ 1 Song ] [ 12 Concerts ] [ 2 Photos ]
The Chandler Wright Story	The Chandler Wright Story formed in late 1999, composed of some of the best musicians in central Ohio. Its members each bring a unique background in music to the group, producing a sound described as "Alternative, jazzy rock with a little twang". Their performances have been entertaining audiences throughout the central Ohio area for the past couple of years, recently at establishments such as Cosmos, and The Lazy Chameleon.

Chaselounge	Chaselounge is an extremely tight 4-piece band from Cincinnati, Ohio. The band focuses on melody - incorporating styles from 50's doo-wop to Elvis Costello to Weezer - all supported by 2 guitars, a steady rhythm section and well crafted lead vocals, to supply a very original and unique sound. Power and Melody - think Buddy Holly through a Marshall stack. Chaselounge is currently touring the Midwest. [ 5 Songs ] [ 7 Concerts ] [ 1 Photo ]
