MY GOOD FRIEND TIM LAROCHE!!!BIO OF TIM LAROCHE:My name is Tim LaRoche. I am a singer/songwriter/guitarist. I have traveled and released records internationally and outside of a few transitional jobs I have always made my living as a musician. I am excited to have been chosen as one of 10 finalists selected for the Nashville Star competition season 5 (details at www.usanetwork.com/nashvillestar). On my mothers side I was raised on the music of Jonathan Edwards, Emmy Lou Harris and Willie Nelson. From my dad it was Elvis and the Everly Brothers. Most of my friends in school played rock music so I can't deny my Ozzy influences. My whole family plays music. My brother and I were raised among world class Bluegrass, Classical and Rock musicians. I have played empty dive bars to packed arenas. I have played fairs to farmers markets and bars to backyards all across this great land. I've opened for headliners and swapped songs with legends at campfires. I am a musicians musician but my primary goal for doing what I do is to entertain you.You can visit me at www.timlaroche.com where you will find pictures, schedules and other fun stuff.VISIT TIM ON MYSPACE!

ewprofile&friendid=128495409TIM LAROCHE LIVE!!!MY GOOD FRIEND ETHAN STONE!!!BIO OF ETHAN STONE:Songwriter / recording artist Ethan Stone hails from Athol, MA. A rocker at heart, he also bleeds traces of jazz, funk, soul, pop, acoustic, and other sounds. Stone claims Thelonius Monk, Jimmy Smith, Billy Joel, Beck, Tom Petty, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Radiohead, Peter Gabriel, Bob Dylan, Soulive and "millions of others" have molded the keyboardist/vocalist/guitarist into his enigmatic style. Though Stone often builds his songs around messages of humanitarianism, he also takes a poke at the status quo, often mixing uplifting musical textures with harsh, devastatingly honest lyrics of disillusionment. Ethan Stone has earned a reputation for putting on marathon, sweat-drenched rock concerts. He released his debut single, "Too Late" in January, 2006. With a full-length CD to come in 2007, Stone performs exclusively in venues where alcohol is not consumed. "My mission is simple, to make the world a better place through my music, in the largest degree possible. If I'm going to be selling something with my music, its not going to be alcohol. I've been there, done that, and want no part of it, ever again," says Stone. Since leaving the bar life behind for good in 2004, Ethan has worked hard to stimulate his craft and invest in his community. He has created and performed at countless alcohol-free benefit concerts and festivals. Ethan has also been the driving force behind Tool Town Live!, a series of concerts held in several small towns in central MA, benefitting the Public Library and other non-profit organizations.VISIT ETHAN STONE ON MYSPACE!

aMY DAD, AN AWARD WINNING PHOTOGRAPHER!!!BIO OF BEN MARTINO:
I've been doing different types of photography since 1985, But mostly I have done Model and Entertainment photos. I also have a degree in photography & video production.I had a studio in Gardner, MA for about 3 years, but I found that with the cost of keeping a studio open, I had to charge more then my local clients could afford. So I closed the studio and did location shoots, which allowed me to travel all over New England, most times getting closer to where the model lived. It worked out well...kept the cost down, and allowed me to work with models and entertainers that couldn't travel to the Gardner area.I've been published in local, regional, national, and even international publication, won a couple of awards, and now I am basically doing Stock Photography for a number of agencies.I also wrote a book called, "Break into Modeling" back in the late 80's...However it's no longer in print.I've worked with models that were just starting out, all the way up to working models for agencies, and everything in between....I still receive local requests and do portfolio or headshot sessions. I can also do an occational assignment or two, but nothing too complicated.I'm always interested in meeting other photographers, and even local models or other local people. HOWEVER.... I DON'T do weddings... or childern...I'm also at a point where I don't need to do TFP or TFCD sessions..... I have been known to give a large discount to people willing to sign a model release. So, although I basically just shoot for stock now, I'm not completely unapproachable for other types of situations.
