Learn more about Bill Toms & Hard Rain: While it’s hard to put a finger on any one sound that defines “American music,” the compositions of Bill Toms are as close a template as any. The Pittsburgh native, along with his band Hard Rain, delivers a sound that takes the greatest of America’s most beloved genres and melds them into a poetic representation of the best the country has to offer. Bill Toms captures the American conscious with thoughtfulness, honesty, and a groove that keeps the tail feathers moving. Toms launched his musical career in 1987 as lead guitarist of Pittsburgh’s legendary band Joe Grushecky and The Houserockers, During that period, he opened for and played with such legendary names as The Band, Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen, Little Feat, and Stevie Ray Vaughn. While playing guitar, co-writing, and adding backup vocals for the Houserockers, Toms and the band recorded six studio albums and one live concert album. In 1995, The Houserockers released American Babylon, which was recorded and produced by Springsteen himself. As a solo artist, Toms has opened for the likes of Buddy Guy, Levon Helm, Marshall Crenshaw, Steve Forbert, and Dan Baird.

Buffalo Wabs and the Price Hill Hustle hail from Cincinnati where they have been crafting a sound that is both rooted in tradition and refreshed by modern sensibilities. This four-piece ensemble confronts the raw expanse of American music, and their upcoming self-titled album merges the timeless echoes of traditional Americana with the turbulent force of modern rock and folk.

The band is known for their diverse range, moving seamlessly from high-energy, foot-stomping numbers to rich, harmony-laden ballads. Their odyssey through the Mid-Atlantic and beyond—spanning the harsh winters of Colorado and Minnesota to the verdant hills of Asheville and upstate New York—has been a journey through both grand stages and humble taverns. The group’s performances focus on delivering a moment that feels as genuine as a home-cooked meal shared with friends.
Their guiding philosophy is simple: “If it doesn’t stir the soul, it ain’t soup.” This motto reflects their commitment to creating music that resonates deeply and authentically with each audience they encounter. All shows are approached with a sense of sincerity, aiming to connect with their audience on a personal level seldomly seen.
