LORI LACAILLE

| ERIC FRENCH & MR. HYDE
Eric French & Mr. Hyde is unapologetic, rock n’ bluz bombast
set off by a powerfully introspective acoustic streak. Whether as a
lean, explosive three piece or alone with an acoustic guitar, EFMH
delivers an intuitive examination of human nature; and someone just
woke up in their underwear without a #2 pencil.
Currently finishing up a self-titled debut, the project is based
in Providence, RI. Both the forthcoming record and live performances
are a refresher course on sexuality, art, and human condition(ing) that
kicks hard whether you’re listening to the murderous acoustic blues
“Ain’t No Fury”, or smirk-pop, rockin “Always the Bridesmaid”.
Currently, you can catch EFMH performing throughout Southern New England.

MICHELLE RIBEIRO
Singer and songwriter Michelle Ribeiro gained considerable attention in New Hampshire’s Lakes Region. While her own compositions stand out in a wide-ranging repertoire, Ribeiro’s soft-edgy voice lends itself to the songs of the artists whose work she favors and which have influenced her own.
Of her upbringing on a farm in Tennessee, Ribeiro recalls how… “Growing up in the south, southern gospel, bluegrass, southern rock, and country music was always heard throughout our home and often played on the porch.” Ribeiro takes pride in performing for events with purpose. “I write songs that have meaning to me, and hopefully touch something inside of others. I believe that all people have a purpose, and have something positive to give to the world…” Ribeiro continues to seek opportunities to showcase her original music in Nashville at venues such the legendary Bluebird Cafe.

WEST EDDY TRIO
West-Eddy Trio was formed in the summer of 2005. Carl Eddy and Matt West, formerly of the Rhode Island-based rock bands, “Krimzen” and “Obscurus”, were looking for a new sound and a different direction from their previous hard rock act.
Recruiting Adrienne West, a member of legendary “Ken Lyon and The Tombstone Blues Band”, to sing added the key ingredient they felt they had been looking for. Melding the essence of 60’s stoner rock, 70’s classic rock, and such diverse musical influences as Susan Tedeschi, System Of A Down, Janis Joplin, Tool, David Rawlings, Grace Slick, Jewel, and Cream (to name a few), The West-Eddy Trio combines the very best of acoustic rock, blues, folk metal and originals while entertaining audiences with their sincerity and power.

GLOBAL CRASH
Global Crash blurs the lines of all techno and electronic music, not being satisfied with just one subgenre of the genre. Dabbling in ambient, house, big beat, trance and electro, Global Crash is the brainchild of Paul Holder. Global Crash is at once both music to make you wanna dance, and music to make you contemplate the meaning of existence.
