Mountainhood
Michael Curtis Hilde, a.k.a Mountainhood (born October 18, 1981 in Northern California) is an American singer, novelist, and visual artist. Hilde currently lives in New York City. Prior to performing and recording as Mountainhood, Hilde was at various times known as Almaden, Almaden Wood, or Almaden Wood and the Transplendence XIV — taking the name from the Mercury mining town where Hilde grew up, a place where Hells Angels and farmers lived. Though style and genre shift from album to album, it has been written that “This is introverted music played as the blues should be.” Hilde organized the Arthurdesh festival to benefit the counterculture journal Arthur Magazine at Market Hotel. A week later, he organized the first See-In. Michael Curtis Hilde first began writing and recording while living in the Big Sur redwoods. His first official release (as Almaden) appeared in Finland on the forest-folk imprint, 267 Lattajjaa, bearing an album title of over fifty words ending in “Blessedhood” Mountainhood signed to Time Lag Records in 2008.

Bird by Snow
Bird By Snow was formed in the weather, wild, and little towns of Northern California. Cold water, dark woods. Fog in the branches, sunlight through a Pelican-wing. Abundance in all directions. This is the place that has informed the aesthetic of the whole Lo-fi, Pacific Northwest Indie Scene. Bird By Snow can be seen there too, but not limited to one view, instead at home in the limitless, expanding
west. Youµll find genres bent as if light through a prism. Song-craft as ritual, where themes of primitivism, pagan meditations, and transcendent dronings breathe deeply. Only one constant member: words, tunes, recording and much playing by Fletcher Tucker.
I Believe in Sunshine
I Believe In Sunshine A.K.A. The All Night Sunshine Band
I Believe in Sunshine is the multi-dimensional art in sound, philosophy, & living project created by Jonathan Deschamps in the year 2000. Driven by his two passions for both the natural world and a hope for a better tomorrow now, Jonathan combines all his life experience into an organic world of sights and sounds nearly as limitless as the universe itself. By channeling the waves of both time and space I believe in Sunshine can transport its listeners anywhere let it be the intimacy of his own bedroom or some far away land that only exists in the mind.
