Nick Kody & Lydia Herren
Influenced by a wide range of Rock, Blues, Country and Traditional Folk music, Nick Kody and Lydia Herren offer a unique and diverse interpretation of the Americana genre through both their recorded work and live performances. Both musicians are multi-instrumentalists, performing on guitar, violin, harmonica, piano, and more. Nick and Lydia’s original material is inspired heavily by roots music and their duets provide a strong chemistry on stage.
Porcelain Train (Ralph & Tamala Fonda)
Porcelain Train is an acoustic Americana music duo featuring Tamala Fonda on acoustic guitar and vocals, and Ralph Fonda on drums/percussion and vocals. Their homegrown interpretation of the Americana genre provides a unique blend of rhythm and harmony combined with thoughtful lyrics.

The Panfil Brothers (Mark and Chris Panfil)
The Panfil Brothers play an eclectic mix of bluegrass, rock and “you name it” in the Buffalo, NY and surrounding areas. Both multi-instrumentalists and experienced songwriters, The Panfil Brothers have been a staple feature in the Western New York Americana scene throughout their careers.
