Ricky Stein
http://www.rickystein.com/
Austin singer/songwriter Ricky Stein specializes in the eclectic blend of folk, blues, rock, and country that has been a hallmark of Austin music for the last 50 years. Lyrically, Stein’s songs range from somber meditations on love and death (“I’m a Stone,” “The Best in Me”) to lighthearted vignettes about companionship (“My Little Drinking Partner”) and the struggle to connect in the digital age (“It’s Tough Out There”).
Stein’s catalogue includes two full-length albums and an EP, all of which are comprised of original material. He also performs his own interpretations of songs ranging from traditional folk tunes to compositions written by friends in the Austin music scene.
“Ricky Stein is one of those Americana guys who can go on stage with just an acoustic guitar an leave an audience rapt. He can also blow you away with bluster. The Austin native is a rising talent to watch.”

Blue Museum is an Alternative Rock band formed by Michael Hollis (Breakfast in Fur) and Joe Ruotolo (Pecas, Royal Psalms) and has since welcomed Brendan Kelley to the fold. They draw from myriad influences, ranging from the gritty sounds of 90’s Alternative to the song stylings of American Folk to the textural psychedelia of dreamy rock. Blue Museum plans its debut EP release in the Fall of 2016.
