Celine Berman

Celine's jazz repertoire is sprinkled with "scat renditions that come from
the soul". Her interpretation of internationally acclaimed jazz favorites
attests to her musical versatility.  By including songs in various
languages, Celine provides her audiences with an unsurpassed world-class
feel. 

Sharon Raenorth

I love to sing jazz (straight-ahead, contemporary, smooth, etc.) and
standards. Though, often I'll add some R&B and Top 40 to my sets, sometimes
even giving them a jazz-flavor.

The soulful seasoning of Lynn McGee, Scott Moore and Chris Berry combined
with hot licks from the rhythm section are sure to get hearts pumping, and
feet stomping. Their celebration of music includes soulful blues, rootsy

Still House Bottom (Bluegrass/Country)
Mark, A.C., and Alan got together on New Year's Day, 2000, and had such a
great time they decided to work up a few tunes and share them with the world
as the Stillhouse Bottom Band. After a few months, they thought it would be
nice to have a bass to round out the bottom, so we asked Bobb to join them,
and they have been making great music ever since.
