Since 2003, singer/songwriter Matt Cox (Omaha, NE) has been recording and performing across the United States both as a solo artist, and with an ever-changing lineup of the area’s top talent. The Shenandoah, IA, native (childhood home of the Everly Brothers) blends traditions of country, rock, folk, blues, Tex-Mex, gospel and soul, with his signature road-worn vocals, guitar & harmonica. A seven-time Omaha Entertainment and Arts Award winner (Best Blues 2008, Best Country/Americana 2009-2014, and Album Of The Year 2018, High Places).

Little Rooms is a new Omaha band, releasing their first song last summer. Little Rooms is an alternative-rock band, inspired by 90’s grunge, writing styles of Bob Dylan and Courtney Barnett. Kristen Taylor is the heart of Little Rooms, writing the songs in a stream of consciousness style that aims to relate. Although new in form, the members are not strangers to playing music with one another; Kristen Taylor, Cole Eisenmenger, and Sam Fleisher writing and playing in Mr. E & the Stringless Kite since 2017. Russ Riley joined forces to create Little Rooms in the summer of 2019.

 About Midwest Dilemma
 Justin Lamoureux has weathered the storm. Many storms, or maybe the trials of living on the road less traveled. Carrying a guitar, a few kids, small business and a pioneer heart that's always seeking new adventures and opportunities. Lamoureux started the band Midwest Dilemma, which has taken on many genres changes, shapes and sizes since it's humble beginnings. Justin and band have toured all over the globe. His music and storytelling has brought together so many friends, family and bystanders for nearly decades. Midwest Dilemma is a mix of Americana, Bluegrass, Country, Folk, Latin, Jazz, Rock, Waltz, Polka and Rock n Roll... But depending on the season or the night, you may get Lamoureux for an intimate solo performance or any variation of the at one point 23 member group.
