"Unit7, featuring the Trailer Park Horns"
Horn-based pop
In their own words, “Unit7 will save your soul. Jazz you up and funk you over. Unit7 is all dressed up and ready to roll. It sings in the rain, cries at the sun, and howls at the moon. Unit7 is silk and never flannel. Shaken but never stirred. Unit7 is a lost weekend in Vegas, a night in Tunisia, and a day at the races. Alert the press. Call the Grammys. Prepare to feel the love.”
Eric Olsson, vocals, keys and guitar; Joe “Jopey” Fitzpatrick, drums; Donny Hayward, bass; Gregory Lauzon, Richard Page, and Tom Mahnken; saxophones and vocals; Dave Meausky, percussion

LINDSAY MAC
Contemporary folk / pop
It’s a simple recipe -- a young woman, a cello with a strap, music that’s fresh, emotional and dynamic. There’s been a lot of “buzz” lately about Lindsay Mac, as her album
”Stop Thinking” was chosen for American Airline’s on-board music program for 2009 and was the winner of top honors in several music competitions. She’s been getting lots of radio play and attention in the press.

WOODKERNE
Celtic-Based Irish, Scottish and American folk
Woodkerne has been performing around the Pioneer Valley since the band's inception in 1987 and its recordings have virtually defined the Irish-American sound. Although Woodkerne can be as traditional sounding as any Celtic band, the band's repertoire is extremely varied, laced with Irish, Scottish, Welsh and English compositions and songs from tradition.
Adam R. Sweet, Jim Bunting, John Rough and Andrew Wiener.
“Sponsored in memory of Dorothy Hayden and Tom Hayden by their family and friends.”

SAMIRAH EVANS - JAZZ SINGER
In New Orleans, a city known worldwide for its music, Samirah was one of its most popular vocalists – and she has toured worldwide. Hurricane Katrina caused Samirah and her husband to relocate, choosing his native town of Brattleboro. She sang every weekend at Mount Snow's Harriman's Restaurant throughout the ski season and performs her repertoire – running the gamut from raunchy blues to jazz smooth as silk -- at many popular nightspots throughout New England.
