momentum and and has a great live act...be sure to see their next live

DAN
CRUMP |
DAN CRUMP
Truth is.... Dan is from Texas and his music is honest and fun. "Truth
Is" also the title of his Freshman release to the world, due out in
the spring of 2005. Often times he has been compared to a blend of Radney
Foster, Robert Earl Keen & Jerry Jeff Walker. This talented singer-songwriter
tailors his acoustic act for the venue and plays to the audience. If the
occasion has potential for becoming rowdy, Dan's acoustic Duo with James
Garcia is a perfect fit. This act can come complete with PA system, DJ
music between sets, and lights if needed.

MISS LESLIE & HER JUKE-JOINTERS |
MISS LESLIE & HER
JUKE-JOINTERS
Miss Leslie and Her Juke-Jointers play country music with a 50s and 60s
flair. This relatively new group describes their music as "Country
music with a hardwood floor sound". Combining some original material
along with obscure country tunes that they have unearthed from the 50s
and 60s, the band opens up new sounds in a classic country setting.
Leslie Lindley sings a gutsy, belting lead that has been compared to the
likes of Patsy Cline and Connie Smith.
