Consisting of three members, The Last Revel uses traditional folk-minded three part harmonies with honest and meaningful lyrics to deliver a passionate and soul stirring performance. On a backbone of rebellious rock attitude and raw traditional instrumentation, band members pride themselves on an unrelenting work ethic and a deep hunger to write, perform, and entertain.

The Last Revel is known for crafting a rowdy live performance that inspires crowds to move to every tune. The Last Revel honed their style at a weekly open mic night at a dive bar in Southern Minnesota. Their performance spread by word of mouth until the bar was at maximum capacity every Thursday. When the dance floor was full, folks danced on tables. The Last Revel strives for such wild performances at every show. The Last Revel received great response from press and fans alike from their first official recording entitled, “The Mason Jar EP” in February of 2013.

With their debut full-length release entitled “UPROOTED” in February of 2014, The Last Revel’s momentum continues to grow and The Band is poised to take their sound to anywhere that welcomes their own brand of lyric driven, foot moving, folk music.

Skyfoot is a powerful jam-rock band from Boston, MA.  Forming in early 2011, the band has played 200+ shows all across the United States.  You’ll find them rocking New England regularly and on down the eastern seaboard in the Carolinas and Virginias.  In summer 2014 the band spent 2 months touring the Northwest U.S. with shows in Colorado, Washington, Oregon, Idaho, and Montana.

Skyfoot plays a variety of genres from funk, rock, & bluegrass to sonic landscapes and fusion.  Their live show features tight compositions and jamming that give way to memorable moments that are recorded and archived. If you dig the sounds of Phish, The Derek Trucks Band, Bruce Hornsby, Grateful Dead, you’ll be stoked you heard Skyfoot!

Tyler Arnott (guitar) thoughtfully threads through songs and jams with his genuine and tasty finger style playing. Eric McEwen (Keyboards and Lead Vocals) doubles as the bassist with crazy left hand lines.  Aaron Morey (Drums) fills out the rest with a dynamic approach to jam drumming with reverence to all the best drummers of the scene.

Skyfoot’s 2012 debut album “Eternal Bend” features nine original songs including favorites Maybe Mississippi, Indigo, and The Mountain.  On July 1, 2014  the band released their 2nd studio album entitled “Room For Space” recorded in West Springfield, MA at the Rotary Records.
