Shut Down Town
w/ Amanda Graves and Cari Smith
Take a little bit of traditional country, mix it with a whole lot of rock ‘n roll and top it off with some blues and you’ve got a taste of Amanda Graves. Known for her powerful, make-you-stop-in-your-tracks vocals, in-your-face attitude, and edgy personality;
Amanda is definitely not your average female singer. She doesn’t hold anything back
when she sings and you can feel it in every song. Her influences range from Merle Haggard, Mike McClure, Reckless Kelly, and Alice in Chains to Gene Watson, Micky and the Motorcars and Stone Temple Pilots.

Delta Moon (Blues)
Delta Moon -- the group’s name already sounds good, but wait till you hear their music. "Clear Blue Flame" is the CD, already the fifth from this group from Atlanta. The first three CDs were with singer Gina Leigh, and when she left the band stand-in Kristin Markiton came to join the song parties, and then when she also left, the two founders Mark Johnson and Tom Gray, together a super slide tandem, no longer sought a replacement. Tom Gray took over the vocals, and you wonder why not earlier? Tom's voice, a little gritty on the edge, sounds perfect with those double slide guitars, which always remind me of David Lindley and Ry Cooder for the spirit. On the former disks the voices of the female singers were fine, but this is still so much better.
