Levon Helm saw the birth of rock and roll and though he's too much of a gentleman to say it, his role in helping to keep that rebellious child healthy is more than just instrumental. Helm broke onto the music scene in the 1960s with his group The Band. But this soulful singer and powerful drummer truly made his mark in music when his comeback albums garnered him both a Grammy Award for Best Traditional Folk Album in 2008 and the first ever Grammy Award for Best Americana Album for his 2009 follow-up, Electric Dirt.

For the moment, Joe Pug has it figured out, career if not life: Just write the songs that have to be written, play them for anybody who will listen, tour as if you had no home. The 25-year-old Chicago-based singer-songwriter released his debut full-length album, Messenger, in 2010. He has been touring extensively since breaking onto the scene with his Nation of Heat EP in 2008. As word spread about the EP, Pug struck upon an idea that would later prove to be one of the most significant in his young career. He offered his existing fans unlimited copies of a free 2-song sampler CD to pass along to their friends. Without access to radio, Pug managed to turn his fans into his very own broadcast system.
