Formed in 1993, Brownie Mary was one of Pittsburgh’s hot acts during the 1990s. The core members Kelsey Friday and Rich Jacques met in Bethany college in West Virginia and started off doing covers at the local bars, eventually becoming inspired to pen their own tunes. After 7 successful years, the pair went separate ways and Kelsey Friday formed her own band which is now touring.
Good Brother Earl is a Pittsburgh-based band known for their blend of rock, Americana, and country influences. Formed in 2000, the group consists of Jeff Schmutz (vocals, acoustic guitar), Skip Sanders (keyboards), Dan Parks (electric guitar), David Throckmorton (drums), and Dan Paolucci (bass). They have released four albums, with their latest, “Dog Years,” launched in August 2023 after a 14-year hiatus. Over the years, they’ve opened for acts like Maroon 5, Guster, and Kansas, and their song “Lonely Heart” was featured in a nationwide AMC promotional commercial. The band maintains a strong local presence, performing regularly in the Pittsburgh area.
