Fuzzy Thurston

Fuzzy Thurston is an American singer/songwriter rooted in the music stylings of country, folk, and rock ‘n roll. Since 2019, Fuzzy has produced several releases with his band, Fuzzy & The Rustbelts. His singles, That Sweet Song (2019) and Perfect (2021) both garnered a significant amount of local, national, and international attention from various media outlets. Fuzzy was the winner of the 2019 106.5WYRK Taste of Country Riser Competition, and was voted 2020, 2021, and 2022 Best Country Act at the All WNY Music Awards. Over the years Fuzzy has shared stages and festivals with national touring artists including Mitchell Tenpenny, Maddie & Tae, Rodney Atkins, Gary LeVox (Rascal Flats), Miranda Lambert, Alison Krauss, Bonnie Raitt, and Willie Nelson.

Currently, Fuzzy is preparing to release his first debut EP titled, Stories & Ballads. It consists of five acoustic songs written over the past several years to include additional tracks detailing the origins of each individual song. “I really wanted the lyrics to do the talking on this record,” Fuzzy says, taking cues and tips from his heroes Isbell, Springsteen, and Moreland. Fuzzy has created a moody EP that personalizes the listening experience. Throughout the EP, he focuses on topics revolving around personal freedom, faith, death, and mental illness. Stories & Ballads is scheduled for worldwide digital release on Friday, October 6, 2023.

Leroy Townes

Leroy Townes started writing songs shortly after discovering a John Prine record, “Diamonds in the Rough” at a yard sale on his paper route when he was fourteen. He’s been hacking away at it ever since. Along the way he’s had the good fortune to meet the love of his life, who sings in a band with him alongside Buffalo’s finest musicians. You can find his music everywhere under the Leroy Townes Band.
