"Potluck" is the first solo release from NYC-based multi-instrumentalist Stefan Weiner of NYC rootsy pop band Town Hall. After the release of the band’s full-length "Roots & Bells" in April 2012, Weiner decided to forge his own path, taking inspiration from the wide range of music he loves and enlisting many NYC musicians to create his own musical potluck. Featuring rising talent such as fellow Town Hall members Phoebe Holiday Ryan, vocalists Anais Aida, Kiah Victoria and Mree as well as tracks co-written with Jon Seale and Dan Knobler (members of music collective Mason Jar Music) the album encompasses many different genres, but is at its core heartfelt and sparse. Love, life, death and growing older are common ground, but Weiner’s unique and soulful voice and clever lyrics make these topics feel brand new. Keep an eye out for upcoming solo shows in NYC. – Amanda Dissinger
