Featuring
Hans Olson
A legend and veteran performing musician with over 40 years in the music business, Olson began his career as a lead singer in a Rock & Roll band in Southern California in 1967. He tours all over the world, but most of the time he travels the highways in Arizona where he has an amazing reputation of being a solo act that can rock a nightclub all night long.

Sydney Sprague
Every once in a great while, humanity rewards us with an artist that is truly imbued with a natural talent and a true gift of songcraft. Sydney Sprague is an artist that just could be on the verge of a similar meteoric rise bringing a new voice to the universal dilemmas of life, love and the repressed desire to demolish someone's home with a chainsaw.

What Laura Says
Hailing from the Phoenix area, the originally acoustic duo of Danny Godbold (keys, guitar, vocals) and James Mulhern (guitar, percussion, vocals), aka What Laura Says, began documenting their stories through musical form, recording track after track of sweet melodies and multi-part vocal harmonies, resulting in a raw and honest sound.

Courtney Marie Andrews
An indie folk singer-songwriter, musician from Phoenix, Arizona, Andrews was one of the ten artists that participated in Phoenix's first annual Winter Folk Festival. Andrews began songwriting at the age of 15, and released her first album Urban Myths in 2007 on River Jones Music when she was seventeen. She has been a top 10 seller in Phoenix next to bands like Antony and the Johnsons, Animal Collective, and Andrew Bird.

Mary Hoffman w/ Darin Mahoney
Mary warmed up for Kenny Chesney at the University of Phoenix Stadium. She also won the 'Next Talented Chick' contest for Chicks with Picks and won a spot on the main stage to warm up for Michelle Branch. Hoffman has been called an acoustic-driven alternative country artist. If you like country, but not real twangy country, you'll love this. Teaming up with Mahoney on the stage, you'll experience deep, resonant levels of guitar playing.
