That mighty rumble you hear coming out of Alabama is none other than Kristy Lee. Her voice like thunder, rolling in before a sweet southern rain, instantly washes the world away. Kristy Lee's unique rhythms are absolutely nourishing, clean, pure, and unapologetic.  By the time she was 18, she landed her first album nationwide, to be sold exclusively with "Target Stores." Kristy Lee's first album gave her an early jump on, what is now, a career. This Alabama girl can pack a house in any state. Tough luck sticking her in a category, because when it comes to writing songs, she has no limits!

Michael Johnson has performed and lived more music and recorded more hits than you would imagine. His voice immediately identifies him as the man who sings "Bluer Than Blue," "Give Me Wings," "That's That," and other landmark songs. His music shows a diversity, depth and heart that only come from years of dedication to a labor of love.

What one remembers of Michael is the texture of his voice, the meaning of the lyric and the music of the guitar -- singer, song and sound. And the feeling of being at home with a friend.

Twin cities born and raised, Tim Mahoney combines his catcy pop/rock sound and bittersweet lyrics with his comfortably raspy voice.  Mahoney has had songs from his most recent album, Stay/Leave, licensed for eight of this season's hottest fall shows MTV's "The Hills" and "Life of Ryan" and e!’s “Keeping Up With the Kardashians," and "Living Lohan." 

Last year, Mahoney won the Ray-Ban Never Hide Music Contest, which landed him in a two-page spread in Rolling Stone Magazine’s 40th anniversary issue. Mahoney has sold over 120,000 units as an independent artist and as a solo performer.

This trio of sisters from Minnesota, delivers their pop/country sound with elegance and class in this stellar performance! Influenced by the sounds of The Eagles, Shania Twain, and Allison Krauss, Redpath hopes to tell stories of everyday lives in their music; ones with heartbreak, hope, humor, and beauty. Lauren writes from her own experiences and those of close friends. "I want the songs to be about authentic, everyday experiences that people can relate to."

About Redpath: As the oldest of the three at 25, Lauren embodies the quintessential "girl-next-door" persona. Her warmth, compassion and storytelling heart is effortlessly demonstrated in their music as she writes Redpath's songs. Torie, age 23, is the sassy sophisticated one that keeps Redpath's style both trendy and classy. Ali is the youngest at 22, but her intelligence, elegance, and strong-will prevent her from ever being labeled the baby.

Inspired by Joni Mitchell, but with a voice and a style all her own Keri Noble invokes an intense mix of pop, soul, and R&B.  Don't miss the release of her newest album, Flying Solo:

"I got the idea to do a solo piano and voice record after touring for the past three years, primarily solo.  It's just been me and my keyboard up on stages all across the country.  I'm comfortable that way - it's how I write songs, its how I began in the music business years ago...just me and my keyboard.  Throughout my musical career, I've fallen in love with playing in a band, having other people on stage with me, and feeling that fullness.  But I never like to stray too far from what comes the most naturally to me...stripping it all down to the basics." - Kerio Noble
