Jer Coons / Andrew Hoover / Caroline Rose July 23, 2010

Armed with drop-dead catchy melodies, boyish good looks, and a charm equal to or greater than Paris Hilton, Jer Coons is poised for national recognition. His debut LP, Speak was released last September.

That album dropped last fall, and you may have heard his song “Legs” when your iPod broke and you had to listen to the radio. It is also possible that you heard it while buying some fresh digs at Hollister, grabbing some fresh produce at various chain supermarkets, picking out some fresh paint at Home Depot, taking a nap on a comfy mattress at Big Lots or even while eating The Endless Lunch for only $6.99 at T.G.I. Fridays. Basically, the only way you could have not heard “Legs,” is if you shop at Whole Foods or Lowes.

Andrew Hoover is a solo musician, though he voices several instruments in his live shows. His unique slap guitar style carries inspirations from the bass and percussion instruments, giving his songs a groove and rhythm not often associated with singer-songwriters. His vocal style is raw and original, colorful, and dynamic. Andrew takes his cues from a variety of his heroes including but not limited to Stevie Wonder, Otis Redding, Marc Broussard, Ray LaMontagne, Raul Midon, James Morrison, and Martin Sexton.

Though she’ll be performing solo, Caroline Rose experiments with a folk-based instrumentation in her recordings. Twangy guitars, banjos, and brushes on the drum set form a backdrop behind her soft voice. She sings colorful stories, painting pictures of love and passion. Be sure to catch her as she opens up the night!
