Dala had quite the year in 2009! Besides playing the Winnipeg Folk Festival (where ShowbizMonkeys.com got the chance to talk with them), they played seemingly ever other folk and bluegrass festival in Canada and the United States last year, steadily growing their fanbase on the way.

At this past summer's Winnipeg Folk Festival, I got the chance to see some incredibly amazing performers, both young folk acts just coming into their own, as well as some classic names in folk and roots music. Between Loudon Wainwright III, Arlo Guthrie, Elvis Costello, and Loreena McKennitt, there was no shortage of legends hitting the stage.

Grand Analog can't be pigeon-holed into one musical genre. Incorperating elements of hip-hop, rock 'n roll, reggae, dub, blues, and even a bit of punk rock, there's a lot of musical flavour to experience.
The Hotel Café, for those unaware, is a club in L.A. that started as a small coffee shop and has grown into one of the premiere launching grounds for singer-songwriters.

Rob Zombie is without a doubt one of the biggest names in rock music. His band White Zombie dominated the rock charts in the early 1990s with their hits like "More Human Than Human" and "Thunderkiss 65", winning all sorts of MTV Award hardware.
