Country
Kelly McFarling grew up riding the prolific RnB radio stations and lady folk waves of Atlanta, GA in the early 90's. This incubation translated to a songwriter anchored in melody, metaphor and potent observation. McFarling began playing original songs in the Bay Area as an adult and quickly became known for her dynamic live show. She spent the next decade touring and releasing music independently, earning a devoted following as a versatile indie-folk singer-songwriter known for spacious arrangements and deep grooves. Garnering comparisons to Laura Marling, Bonnie Raitt, and JJ Cale, McFarling’s voice anchors her lush six-piece band as they explore her deep catalogue of music.
Her latest release, Bed of a River (2022), was recorded in Richmond, VA at Spacebomb studios, and finished at home in California. The album is a collaboration with Andrew Brennan in writing, arranging, playing, recording, and living. The record features the Spacebomb house band; Cameron Ralston (bass) Alan Parker (guitars) Pinson Chancelle (drums) Daniel Clark (keys) with production by Matthew E White. Additional recording with Jeremy Harris at Panoramic Studios in Stinson Beach, CA with Nick Cobbett (drums) Tim Marcus (pedal steel) Danny Vitali (bass) Brittany Powers (vocals), and Jeremy Harris (Keys).
Other releases include Distractible Child (2010), Ridgeline (2013) Water Dog (2017), Deep the Habit (2021)
McFarling has played in and toured with various projects in the Bay Area and beyond; including Y La Bamba, Skywayman, Scott Hirsch, Goodnight, Texas, Sonny and the Sunsets, Terry Reid, Con Brio, and more.

Rose Paradise enlivens West Coast folk rock. Loyal to the sweet sound of her hometown: Bolinas, California, the honky-tonk energy of Nashville country, and the (recently-encountered) gritty truths of New York City, Paradise sings for the survival of Americana. The artist's songs evoke nostalgia as music should. Her lyrics so honest
they prod at the hearts of each audience member without exception.
The tangible chemistry of Paradise's band, in unity with her distinctively rich voice will take you on a ride through the country and straight to the sea.
The California chanteuse is poised for her biggest year yet, with her debut album "Over The Hill" having been released in April of 2025.
