Heather Lloyd - Heather Aubrey Lloyd is what you get when a recovering reporter, performance poet and fairy tale collector writes songs. Her full, passionate voice, poetic storytelling and love of percussion features prominently in her band, Baltimore’s ilyAIMY (i love you And I Miss You). After nearly two decades and 45 states, performing everywhere from bars to bait shops to clothing-optional resorts, Lloyd started work on her first solo studio CD. 2017’s “A Message in the Mess" won the Mid-Atlantic Song Contest Director's Award for "Album of the Year," defying genre and even conventional instruments to tell it's stories with bubble wrap and upright bass

Chelsea Monae - Whether she is singing, spitting poetry, or rapping, Chelsea Monae brings fresh energy to acoustic soul and R&B music. Heavily influenced by artists like Lauryn Hill and Whitney Houston Monae aims to encourage her audience to evaluate the reality of living with and loving others through a social-political lens. She released her first EP in 2015 and has since shared stages with KRS-One and Bone Thugs N Harmony. As she works on her upcoming album, Monae continues to use music to spread love and empowering messages on stages throughout Baltimore.

Teporah - Nursed on classical, jazz, blues, and folk, Teporah's style is reminiscent of standby pianists like Laura Nyro. Her voice rides both tracks: effervesct floating soprano stylings, plus a throaty, sultry power.
