Ashleigh Mannix - Hailing from a geographical and cultural mix that takes in both the ACT and NSW's South Coast, Ashleigh Mannix has recently emerged as a bright young singer/songwriter and natural solo performer, consistently embraced by fans, peers and audiences alike, both locally and overseas. Ashleigh picked up her first guitar at the age of 11, a few years later adding to this musical experience with her own voice. In the years that followed Ashleigh has molded her musical self and soul writing, travelling largely solo, and in particular with her dynamic live performances. She has created an expanding library of songs that channel her disarming honesty and a warm charisma that infects and leaves audiences all over converted.

Boston Shaker - Sydney band Boston Shaker is high energy rock n roll. Boston Shaker started when brothers RC (vocals/tatts/fashion) and Jimmy D (guitar/guitar faces/vocals) decided to combine their talents and work on some catchy energetic original songs. They called on long time friend and cocktail barmen extraordinaire Pablo J to play bass, and when they enlisted talented drummer Ange baby yeah (formerly with Skulker) an experienced line up was complete. Drawing on many influences Boston Shaker, doesn't sound like your usual rock band. A bit blues, a bit rockabilly, a little country, some pop thrown in for good measure and a whole lot of rocking out!
