Austin Renfroe with special guest Mieka PauleyIt's sometimes hard to imagine how the spirit of a soulful song crafter and the energy of a compelling concert artist can coexist in the same person, but Austin Renfroe brings both to the page and stage. With a steadily expanding, committed fan base and shows at venues nationwide ranging from college campuses and theaters to Philips Arena, the Atlanta native is quickly making his mark as one to watch. Mieka Pauley's haunting voice and heartbreaking lyrics has gained her more than a few fans, securing her bills with Black Eyed Peas, Citizen Cope, KT Tunstall, Natasha Bedingfield, John Legend, Eric Clapton, and many others. So her music: Imagine Radiohead tiptoeing silently behind Patty Griffin as she makes her way backstage. Imagine Death Cab hiding in the back on an Emily Dickinson reading. She describes her music as "mainstream indie rock" and feels the contradicition perfectly describes her obsessions.

Blair Crimmins & The HookersJust in time for Mardi Gras weekend, Blair Crimmins brings the Hookers out to blast the room with Dixieland horns, rowdy ragtime piano and gypsy jazz guitar. Songs jump with a 1920's gaudiness, reminiscent of tawdry, dangerous jazz. While devious lyrics can mirror the sinister Charlestons they accompany, Crimmins also has a grab bag of torch songs at his disposal, spotlighting the loneliness of a life spent in the shadows.
