Mike Bustin
Friday February 14th
Mike Bustin has been performing as a professional musician in the midwest and southeast for over a decade. He performs on average about 225-250 shows a year. Mike has the ability to cater his performances to just about any clientele because of his vast song list, and the ability to read and understand a crowd. "I'd say the compliment I get that makes me the happiest is when someone says they love how I jump around from genre to genre, and decade to decade." It isn't out of the ordinary for Mike to jump from a 70's singer-songwriter song, to a popular pop song on the radio today, to a 90's country song, to a 50's classic, then a TV theme song. "I really do try and make every show special. I not only want the guests to enjoy it, but also the staff of the venues I play. They're the ones that are forced to listen. So I try my best to keep every gig fresh." That's also why Mike's song list has grown to over 1,500 songs. https://mikebustin.com/home

Shalo Lee and Northern Southern
Friday March 7th
Shalo Lee and the Northern Southern!
The band was powerful right out of the gate. Now it is absolutely off the hook. With Brad McLemore's brilliant, authentic Texan guitar and vocals, Ben's intuitive, dynamic, technically flawless drumming, Nick's soulful, polished, rock solid bass, and Joe Savage's heartbreaking pedal steel, lap steel, and harmonica solos, I could not ask for more in a band. To put it bluntly I hand picked and won the band lottery when they all said yes to this project, and I thank God every day to get to work with these gentlemen. They are incredible, both as musicians and people.
Don't just take my word for it though, come hear us for yourselves.
