The Blues Aside Project explores the depths of human expression from the deep recesses to whimsy through the musical storyline of personal exploration of life, love, grief and growth told by the voices of different string instruments i.e. the guitar, mandolin, banjo, and the cello as each string voice has a unique way of communicating a song. The percussion & bass provide the contextual framework for this storytelling experience.

Close harmony vocal trio All About Eve (Katie Geddes, Deb Wood, Mary Fithian) offers up a repertoire of traditional and contemporary songs encompassing folk, country, pop, and gospel genres, with an emphasis on edgy lyrics and topical content.
