Lily DeTaeye is a Des Moines, IA native with a foundation in alt rock and folk. A harmonica-wielding badass with a hauntingly soulful voice, the spirited songwriter might remind you of your weird friend from book club who definitely has a few bodies in her closet.
DeTaeye has been touring the country for close to five years bringing audiences across the country a dynamic live show made up of high octane, harmonica-riddled folk songs and pensive, absorbing ballads.

St. Louis native Jan Shapiro is not only a great voice teacher—she’s been on the faculty of Boston’s Berklee College of Music for the past 31 years. Retired in the summer of 2017, Jan is also a world-class practitioner of the art of jazz singing. That fact is particularly evident on the exquisitely intimate Piano Bar After Hours, her fourth CD (and third for her own Singing Empress label), on which she applies her glowing, pitch-perfect three-octave pipes to a thoughtfully chosen program of old standards and pop songs of more recent vintage.
Featuring Jan Shapiro - Vocals and Keyboards, Dave Black - Guitar, Eric Warren - Bass, and Chuck Kennedy - Drums.

Known around St. Louis for their use of loop pedals and onstage chemistry, West End Junction is an alternative folk duo from St. Louis, MO, comprised of Cara Ristau (vocals, keys, and percussion) and Dan Ristau (guitar). The pair met in 2014 in a south St. Louis apartment jam session through mutual friends. Unable to stay away from the music that brought them together, they created the name West End Junction in 2019. Their music, heavily influenced by folk, Americana, and indie country, has been described as "haunting" by Gesso Magazine and "ethereal" by Grateful Web. Lyricist Cara Ristau's words often reflect themes around social justice and spiritualism with a particular focus on climate change.

“Kirchhoff is the dynamic voice of Miss Jubilee, a name that has been synonymous with blues & hot jazz in St. Louis for a decade. The piano/vocal core of the group is what drives the sound. Pianist Ethan Leinwand is an excellent barrelhouse blues piano player nestled in the cradle of ragtime. Kirchhoff’s excellent rhythmic vocalization transforms old blues songs into something fresh and relatable. Her voice is an instrument, her impeccable timing guiding the band and getting right down in the ensemble mix.”
