DAN MANGAN is an engaging performer who combines intelligent lyrics and addictive guitar melodies with passion and raw emotion. The graveled sweetness of his voice is immediately recognizable and endearing, superbly supported by a highly talented backing band. Dan's latest release "Postcards and Daydreaming" is a fluid piece of work with diverse yet complementary grooves, styles and tones. http://www.danmanganmusic.com

MICHAEL CHASE - A natural performer who began his musical journey at age five singing solos into his grandparent’s tape recorder, Michael chase is a self-taught guitar player and singer who began writing songs at sixteen and draws from roots, blues, rock and country, with an emphasis on songcraft and storytelling. http://www.michaelchase.com

HEY OCEAN!'s mellow guitar grooves, eargasmic vocals, and upbeat jazzy licks keep listeners comfortably sitting, standing, or dancing while they are washed out to sea and carefully brought back to shore. Passionate voices, pensive words, and frivolous fun keep this music honest and pure: from the heart, for the soul.

STEPHEN HEDLEY - With an effortless, soulful vocal style and guitar playing that incorporates elements of jazz, blues, rock and folk, Stephen Hedley crafts melodic pop songs that have a timeless quality to them. http://www.stephenhedley.com
