ALANNA MATTY began writing music at the age of 13 and her first song Fly was featured on the Swansea Public School end of year CD. She is currently in grade 12 at The Etobicoke School of the Arts, majoring in musical theatre. Her musical interests, however, fall mostly outside of that genre. With influences ranging from Vanessa Carlton to John Mayer, Alanna's music is fresh and bright, and always written from the heart. www.myspace.com/alannamatty
AMY CAMPBELL combines classic training and folk sensibilities and is committed equally to lyric writing, composing, and performing. She has released two live albums in the last five years, featuring very personal, relatable songs.Oh Heart, Oh Highway is a double album, by Amy, with an accompanying book of illustrations and prose offering listeners a multidimensional experience. Amy’s live performance is witty and engaging. She is "well poised to one day inherit Joni Mitchell’s place as Canada’s quintessential female singer/songwriter.” (Cindy Filipenko, Herizons)
