Beards
Fiercely loyal folk duo seeks audience for sad musics made by drunken buffoons. Audience must have taste for mangled catch phrases and biopics. Audience should appreciate the musical manifestation of fictitiously sad characters in place of the actual feelings of band members at times. Audience should realize that duo is just trying to put this thing right somehow-- to string the morose missives of malconents together by using their bandaged, split-torn skin and grafted-on understanding. Audience should neither pay any homages nor assume anyone is asking them to. Audience is encouraged to "keep it real" at all times, even maddeningly so. Audience should know that duo, at any given time, is at the end of their collective ropes, although they love you, and they do, they do, they do, they most certainly do.

Equestrian
Equestrian is a Brooklyn music collective lead by Ryan William Downey and features a rotating group of musicians and artists including but not limited to... Ryan D. Vocals, Guitar, Nord, Harmonica, Chord Organ, Dan Corrigan-Percussion, Jeff Tussi-Guitar Conor MacDowell-Bass, Guitar, Mandolin, Sam Nedel-Keys, Bass, Berlin-Cello, Colby Devereux-Production (and occasional dueting). Mark Toneff-Artwork.

We would like to make this perfectly clear.

There is no truth whatsoever to the rumor that Equestrian is from Ohio, or any of the other "mid-western" states. There is no truth to the rumor that we are from anywhere at all. Nor has anyone produced any evidence that would support the theory, in any capacity, that any member (whether permanent or temporary) of the Equestrian organization is anything less than what they espouse to be: god-fearing moralists whose sole purpose is to sweeten the bitter, spoiled skin of this rotting apple from it's very loins, Brooklyn, New York.

We want to make this clear.

There is no truth to these rumors.

We don't want there to be any confusion.

There is no truth.

We want this to be perfectly clear.
