The Ben Brown Trio www.myspace.com/benbrowntrio 

We're a little known band from Lethbridge, Alberta that are all about the shows, all about the love, and something in there to do with organized crime (kidding!). Our style as a band lies within that ever-so-sensitive buffer zone between indie and pop-rock with a few detours into the blues and roots sounds. On that account, we're a pretty versatile band, we're open to experimentation and not limited in what we can offer. We all come from different walks....and different bands. All three of us have other projects on the go but we believed in this and have come together with the "Trio" to create something quite extraordinary.

Mike Grabow  www.myspace.com/mikegrabow

The only thing Mike Grabow needs to create a smash hit is his guitar. A child of the road, he spent the last 10 years of his life developing his sound, while traveling. He began playing and songwriting in his hometown of Reno Nevada, acquiring a large following before meeting current producer/songwriter Rick Bacchus. Rick, who has produced chart toppers for The Backstreet Boys, Alicia Keys and most recently, Jessica Simpson, began recording and co-writing Mike’s album under his new production company, Bacchus Music. “While judging a talent search contest, I heard Mike perform. He shined above the rest, and I immediately wanted him to be part of my new company.” –Rick Bacchus Mike, at 23 years of age, delivers effortless acoustic performances reminiscent of Gavin Degraw and Martin Sexton. He is currently performing his original material in venues ranging from New York to Canada, expanding his fan base. Mike continues to write new songs and develop his live performances. Just give Mike some fresh air, a little raw emotion and a guitar, and he’ll show you just how good life can sound.
