Mixing up an unlikely concoction of vintage rock & roll and outlaw country, COLE DIAMOND is, depending on when you ask, either the stage name for singer/songwriter Ryan Otte or the collective handle for Otte and his Band. For years Otte spent most weekends behind a drum kit playing with too many bands to list. The idea for Cole Diamond came about as a way for Otte to step out from behind the drums and try his hand at the front of the stage. In the years since “Cole Diamond” was conceived he has released two EPs, a string of singles, received airplay on 89.3 The Current, and opened for national acts such as Jenny Don’t & The Spurs, Corb Lund and The Wilder Blue. Drawing on influences that range from Waylon and Willie to Brooks & Dunn, Cole Diamond delivers a modern take on a classic sound. Check them out! https://colediamondmusic.com/home

The BRYCE THOMASCHEFSKY BAND is the hottest new country/rock band in town, just formed in January 2024! Joining Bryce on stage is Clark Lundquist (Overplayed, Moniker) on drums, Cavan Jefferson (Overplayed) on bass and backup vocals, and Erik Jorgenson (Juiceneck) on a wailing lead electric guitar. Since their first show as a full band at the iconic roadhouse – Leo and Leona’s – they have been on a roll in southwestern Wisconsin – most notably taking stage at Country Boom in West Salem, WI, opening the stage for Riley Green, Rodney Atkins, and other high profile artists. If you’re a fan of high energy country and rock, you are bound to be a fan of the Bryce Thomaschefsky Band!
