Still The Sky's Limit began as the side project for Johnny B., lead guitarist and back-up vocalist of the now defunct Orange County, CA indie-rock band, The Make Believe. What began during a string of downtime from TMB due to unforeseen circumstances quickly sprang into a bevy of songs that have encompassed the events of the past few years of Johnny's life. Having written an album of music and with the desire to perform, Johnny turned to close friends and fellow musicians Jon Moussalli and Noel Vestri to jump in on guitar and bass respectively. The trio spent the next few months honing their collective skills, (which came together at such a natural progression it was almost shocking) and having done so only needed a final piece of the puzzle to solidify the live line up. That piece arrived soon with the addition of Aaron Kramer on drums. Aaron then spent a few weeks learning the songs and writing drums and Still The Sky's Limit was officially born.

Welcome to Shane's eclectic world, where music is art, art is music, and everything is creative and original. Shane and his band Sandbox will be releasing their album Me and Him and Horse on March 27, 2012. Each song is a stand alone story or experience, separate from the others for the most part. I really tried to get away from common threads in this album. The process of Sandbox is unique: I write and play all the parts in the recordings. On the new record, I brought in a few specialists to play violins and horns, plus a tap dancer and a 16-person choir. But beyond all of that I play each part you hear, and live I am joined by my awesome band."

Singer/songwriter Karina Nistal is known to align herself with diverse and solid collaborations to showcase her extensive range. Her work consists of emotive jazz vocals on downtempo tracks, rapping in Spanish for the worldly sounds of reggaeton, or fusing soulful Latin vocals with lively dance music. Most significantly, it is a vibrant charisma that carries over her poetic musings in either English or Spanish, or her self-assured flirtatious rhymes. There's a very fine line between poetry and rap, but it's one that only Karina interconnects with finesse.
