Newcomer Erin O'Brien performs story-driven roots-folk music. Since her 2002 stage-debut, Erin has accumulated an impressive set of credits, including earning the title "2004 Performing Songwriter of the Year" by taking the Grand-Prize in the Madison Songwriters Group�s 2004 Song-Showdown.

Award-winning singer and songwriter Kenneth Burns grew up in Nashville, Tennessee, where country music got in his blood, and his alt-honkytonk band the Junkers enjoyed popular and critical success in and around Madison, Wisconsin. His songs are contemporary, often humorous takes on traditional country-music themes like faithlessness and addiction. He now performs with the World's Greatest Lovers, a country band that sometimes plays Donna Summer songs.

Host Marianne Flemming has been a performing songwriter for the past twenty years. She has performed on street corners to concert halls from Miami, Florida to Mallorca, Spain. Marianne has three CD's of original music and numerous musical awards to her credit
