Eugene Tyler Band are just three mama’s boys with anxiety problems trying to find catharsis in high-energy, irreverent songs. Eugene Gardner (vocals/guitar/mandolin), Daniel Tyler (guitar/banjo), and Marc Jaffee (upright bass/vocals) all grew up within a couple of miles of each other in downstate New York, and since 2015 they’ve been on the road, performing at landmark clubs like Sony Hall and the Mercury Lounge and bluegrass festivals like Podunk Bluegrass and Thomas Point Beach, building a dedicated fanbase stretching from Colorado to Maine. 2022 has seen the band selling out shows across the northeast and opening up for national acts like the Kitchen Dwellers and Wayne “The Train” Hancock.

Their newest album, “Thanks Cats”, was released in 2021. It’s the band’s third full-length and first live release, recorded at some of their very last shows of 2020.  “It’s the most honest record we’ve ever made,” says singer/songwriter Eugene Gardner. “Most of our time is spent on the road, drinking in the sun and making music with friends, some new and some we’ve known forever. We’ve made a lot of memories at those shows and hopefully these songs make people feel like they’re right there with us.”

Breanna Elaine is a full time musician, singer/songwriter based out of Vermont. Breanna’s music is dripping with plenty of earthy folk, indie, singer/songwriter sounds, but the term “folk music” does not fully encapsulate the work of this blooming musician. Her debut album, “Seedlings" was released January 1st, 2023. She performs a mix of originals as well as a wide array of covers on both guitar and banjo. Breanna is recognized around Vermont and surrounding areas for her unique sound and songwriting talent. With over 100 original songs that have still yet to be recorded, this is just the beginning for Breanna Elaine, a true star on the rise. “Generally classified on music sites as folk/rock, as the evening went on, it was clear she transcends definition. She’s been compared to Jewel (though Breanna’s covers of Jewel are in many ways superior to the originals), Alanis Morissette, and Janis Ian. Tack on an early Fiona Apple song and it’s easy to understand just how diversely her talent runs.” -Susan Johnson of the Brandon reporter
