About the performers: A blues and folk artist from Stratford, CT, MELISSA MULLIGAN began her love affair with performing at the young age of nine. Most recently she was voted "Best Singer-Songwriter" in the Fairfield Weekly's annual reader's poll. Tonight, she will be performing with BILL BLUE. SUZANNE VICK has been honing her vocal and songwriting skills for as long as she can remember. Also from Stratford, GLORIETTA is finding their way onto the Connecticut acoustic indie radar. DYLAN CONNOR is a singer-songwriter in the tradition of Elvis Costello, Elliot Smith and Jeff Buckley. A pop troubadour with an adept sense of melody and engaging lyrical style, Connor embraces the notion of Rock 'n Roll as a grass roots art and pursues his passion with fervor & conviction. BILL CARLTON "has spent the last decade impressing audiences all over the Northeast. Influenced by Shawn Colvin, similar to John Mayer, and evoking Dave Matthews in his shows, Bill remains brilliantly unique". Representing New Haven, singe-songwriter MIKE THOMPSON has been in the music scene for over ten years. "Those who come to see Mike perform will leave remembering his honest lyrics that no doubt speak the truth". Technorati tags: , , , , ,
