Nashville-based Brian Ashley Jones is a soulful singer, accomplished guitarist, and versatile touring songwriter whose songs have been placed in film and television and recorded by other artists.  He draws from a variety of blues, bluegrass, country and rock influences to create his own brand of Americana.  Bassist Tisha Simeral has performed on the Gaylord Opryland General Jackson Showboat and played with the Orchestra Nashville String Quintet and the Columbus Symphony Orchestra Pops.

The aptly named Good Lovelies – Caroline Brooks, Kerri Ough and Sue Passmore – are not your run-of-the-mill "all girl" band. Winners of the 2010 Juno for Roots Album of the Year and of the 2009 New Emerging Artist Award from the Canadian Folk Music Awards, the Toronto-based trio presents folk-roots and western swing with unerring three-part vocal harmonies, clever songs and, onstage, convulsively funny repartee.  The Good Lovelies played their first show in December of 2006. Since then, they have quit their jobs, toured coast to coast numerous times, played countless house concerts, festivals, folk clubs and coffee houses, and released three albums.

Ellis is a Minneapolis-based rising star in the independent music scene, with extensive touring and six albums released

in the last 12 years.  Her “joyful, unpretentious modern folk” continues to build attention at venues and festivals throughout

the country with heart-felt songs that reflect her sincere graciousness, vibrant nature, and contagious sense of humor. You’ll quickly be drawn in by her warmth and real-life journeys as reflected in her songs.
