8:00pm to 8:30pm--- Kevin Laurence       http://www.kevinlaurence.com



Kevin Laurence’s music has
developed from single notes on a piano to a unique and eclectic repertoire of
original music. With influences such as Billy Joel, Elton John, The Beatles and
countless others, Kevin has created a sound that took the 26 year old
singer-songwriter years to develop. At the young age of five, the foundation of
Kevin’s musical journey was laid when he would spend hours at the piano
figuring out the tunes he would hear as his dad's vinyl collection would be
playing out of the home office. Throughout elementary and middle school, Kevin
consistently rebelled against piano teachers that wanted him to play the notes
on the page as he was insistent on making up his own songs. 



 



8:30pm to 9pm--- Matt Kabus         http://mattkabus.com



Matt Kabus an accomplished
guitarist, pianist, and vocalist, Kabus lures his listeners with an intimacy of
subconscious sincerity. His garage band beginnings eventually escalated into an
individual exploration of musical self. Experimenting with this newfound
independence propelled the full-blown music career in which he is situated
today. Apprenticing in rap studios and mastering the art of production, he has
attained the hands on knowledge necessary for thoroughly comprehending his
field. Kabus has studied music business at the University of Georgia.
