Graham Brown
"Momentum!" - That's the word commonly heard when talking about Philadelphia native Graham Brown. With honest, intimate and sometimes politically motivated lyrics, the rising songwriter has an ability to transform personal experiences into relatable songs that resonate - crossing the boundaries of genre and age. Gaining new fans, or as he prefers, friends - with each performance, Helen Leicht from nationally acclaimed AAA WXPN in Philadelphia recently had this to say, "If you're already a new fan of Graham, like us, then mark May 31st on your calendars. Graham's new EP, Fire! is to be released and believe us, it won't let you down."  Returning to our stage for the first time since his November solo debut with new release and rhythm section, Graham’s latest effort clearly defines the maturation of an up and coming singer/songwriter.

Lisa Bouchelle
What do Bruce Springsteen, Jon Bon Jovi, Rob Thomas of Matchbox 20, and Cyndi Lauper have in common? Lisa Bouchelle has sung backup for them all. And she has recently stepped out on her own, with a debut national release that has garnered rave reviews. The new CD, "Paint Your Dreams," was completed at Jon Bon Jovi's home studio, and songs from Lisa's album are among those available from Starbucks Hear Music® Media Bars in the Starbucks Hear Music® Coffeehouses in select cities around the U.S. Lisa completed a national tour with Blues Traveler, and earlier this year performed in Tokyo, Japan. She recently recorded a duet with John Popper, the singer of Blues Traveler, and had a small role on the hit TV show “Gossip Girls”. “Paint Your Dreams” is distributed by the Universal Music Group and is available in music stores nationwide, as well as on iTunes, Amazon.com, and all major music Internet retailers.

Evan Bliss & The Welchers
"If Brandon Boyd of Incubus and Jack Johnson had a love child, it would be Evan Bliss & the Welchers. The group's sound blends powerful vocals and skilled instrumental music in what is a very respectable compilation. Mixing reggae, punk, rock and soul, the band has created a unique sound." — On Tap Magazine

SYD
Vermont/Brooklyn/Ventura (depending on the week)-based Syd and his band are currently touring in support of his latest release, "The Way We Found It".  Syd's love of "indie rock", driving rhythms and 50's pop comes through in this record that Seven Days calls "an immaculate collection of glittery pop-rock anchored by literate, wistful melancholia".  Syd brought his band (drummer Sam Smith, now Ben Folds' throne man and guitarist Dylan Allen, now also living in New York) into the deep woods of Chelsea, VT to record in a gutted barn.  Produced by Danny Weinkauf (Fountains of Wayne, David Mead, They Might Be Giants), "The Way We Found It" is a new sound, and altogether familiar.  Syd confessed in a recent interview "this is the album I wish I'd started out making".

Along the way and with impressive achievements already at such a young age, Syd has earned a spot in the prestigious Music Connection magazine's "Top 25 Demos of the Year", a nomination for Starbuck's Coffeehouse Peformer of the Year, showcases at NXNE and Nemo Music Festival, a spot in the lineup at the Virgin Music Fest in Baltimore, and a song featured in FX's "Rescue Me" with Dennis Leary.  He has has also played opening slots in front of Ari Hest, John Vanderslice, Stephen Kellogg and The Sixers, The Zombies and Hanson, among many others.
