Balto
Balto's 2015 EP, Call It by Its Name, showcases Dan Sheron's strong foundational songwriting rounded out by the supporting cast of drummer Seth Mower, guitarist/mandolinist Luke Beckel, bassist Devon Hoffner, and pianist Adam Finger. The confluence of relatively new performers in Balto—some from jazz and Southern rock backgrounds—has proven to be a boon for the band thus far. RYAN J. PRADO
