Str uthers

Struthers is already drawing comparisons to modern day greats like John Mayer and Jason Mraz, even being referred to as a male Feist on more than one occasion. He’s toured the country 5 times, released 2 EPs, 4 music videos, and has cracked the Canadian AC charts with his festive single ‘Blue Christmas’ in under 2 years. And there are no signs of stopping anytime soon. He and WCMA award winning ‘Producer Of The Year’ Arun Chaturvedi are working on a full length album to be released in the spring, which will be accompanied by North American tour dates. |

►Kelly
Joe Phelps
 USA |
soulfulness and passion created through emotive vocals, visionary lyrics and stellar guitar work Steve Earle: "Kelly Joe Phelps plays, sings, and writes the blues. HOLD UP before you lock that in - forget about songs in a twelve bar three chord progression with a two line repeat and answer rhyme structure - though he can certainly do that when he wants to. I'm talking about a feeling, a smoky, lonesome, painful - yet somehow comforting groove that lets you know that you are not alone - even when you're blue. Play on brother." |

►Chloe
Charles
 Toronto,
ON If you want to get a taste, I recommend checking out her video for "Soon on a snowflake" - the video has been up for about 2 months and already has over 8700 hits. |
“She will jolt you out of the
ordinary and draw you into her intense world of emotions and sounds.” “She’s something onto
herself, this one. The uncommonly limber vocalist does a sort of chamber-soul
music, with jazzy detours taken as well.” |
