ELI COOK

From his first bar gigs as a teenager in central Virginia, ELI COOK has blended old school blues and roots styles with a modern edge of hard rock intensity. He has earned critical acclaim with numerous albums and has shared the stage with such artists as BB King, John Mayall, Johnny Winter, Robert Cray, Robin Trower, Taj Mahal, Gary Clark Jr. and Leslie West. He writes, produces and records as a cross-genre, multi-instrumentalist session musician and works in music education, specializing in Blues Guitar.

ON THE BUS

ON THE BUS is the premier Grateful Dead tribute band in the Washington area, known for its faithful recreation of the music, vibe and experience of a Dead show. On The Bus is a tribute not just to the Dead, but to the entire community that spawned a multi-generational genre that artfully blends the essential elements of rock, blues, jazz, funk, country, bluegrass, and gospel.

BRASSIE

BRASSIE is an alternative singer-songwriter based out of Washington, D.C. She performs as a solo acoustic act with a dark, mellow sound that draws on folk, pop, and rock influences. She's honored to perform a set of Janis Joplin songs in the BRASSIE style.
