Cast Iron Cowboys is a six piece country western band whose sound finds a sweet spot between classic blues and homegrown folk. First formed in early 2022, the Cowboys developed a style all their own. Inspired by Appalachian fiddle & banjo bluegrass and vintage country blues, the Cowboys combine a diverse mix of influences across American roots music, breathing new energy into an antique sound. Their ever-expanding repertoire includes original music and covers from a number of decades. Songs are led and sung in harmony by five of the Cowboys and line dancing, taught by band members or local experts, is a staple of their recurring performances. The band creates a welcoming environment with friendly instruction, often accompanied by honky tonk angels ready to help first-timers along. The band’s catalog of music also provides opportunities to two-step, waltz, swing, and stomp your boots along with the Cowboys on stage.

Serving as the Finger Lakes most calamitous collective, BRC has been accosting crowds (musically) across NY for the last decade. We’re a 5 piece, force feeding nostalgia whether you like it or not. Playing the hits you thought you had forgotten (for good reason) and relentlessly bringing you back with originals that speak to a simpler time. A tinge of teen spirit, a splash of super soaked savage garden… Ya best just pop on a fresh pair of JNCO’s, and put the beeper on silent. When you’re with the Calamity, it’s bound to be the bomb diggity, no doubt.

After releasing the album "Zen In Denim" in 2024, the band began an onslaught of shows exposing audiences to their smirk worthy sensibilities. A group who share a familiarity in living that resonates with the listener through lyrics that feel as though they've been stolen from your subconscious. Our sardonic glaze, a snickered malaise, somehow bring smiles to your face.. Because we all can relate.
