FREE SHOW

Wes Urbaniak

Wes Urbaniak is an amalgamation of songwriting, storytelling and unique craftsmanship. His music is real, honest, bold and a little odd in the best way possible. The experiences of his life have created stories through his songs. He pushes the limits within the human mind while opening up the possibilities for the human spirit to explore what’s dwelling within. His whole world is a wonderfully delirious imagination rendered into reality. https://wesurbaniak.com/

Natsha James

NATASHA JAMES is known for taking Roots music styles, turning them on their head, combining them, and coming out with tunes that are completely unique but totally familiar at the same time. https://www.natashajames.com/

Chuck “JonEmery” Dodds

WTF Chuck “JonEmery” Dodds, is a singer-songwriter known for walking the line between heart, humility and humor, delivering songs that are honest, and unassumingly, uplifting. https://whatthefuckchuck.com/
