Raised in Chicago, Daphne now calls Nashville, TN home and cites influences as varied as Elvis Costello and Michael Jackson, but her musical output cleverly incorporates such inspirations into a style that is refreshing and contemporary in a way that suits her songs best.\nWith over 1,000 shows under her belt over the past several years, Daphne has been spreading her music to passionate fans across the United States. Her infectious personality combined with her incredible talent caught the eyes and ears of Sony/ATV Music Publishing in early 2016 who quickly signed Daphne to a worldwide publishing agreement. This partnership has resulted in several of her songs being recorded by other artists and used in Commercial, Film and TV productions such as One Tree Hill, Empire and a Microsoft Ad Campaign.\nWebsite\nDick Prall DICKIE, veteran tunesmith Dick Prall, has taken his wares and shared them with violinist Kristina Priceman to create a collection of dark, gorgeous, and oft-times moony sing-alongs.  The self-titled record comes in like a bellowing newborn, but settles into a pace of dynamic ebb and flow as it ages and ends with a Roy Orbison-styled recount of hopeful love that never bleeds into the saccharine.\nPrall has a long history of fashioning accessible, viral tunes and inserting them with lilting melodies.  It started with his 1998 release Somewhere About Here, prompting No Depression to dub his debut “a track-by-track monster.”  His follow-up record, Dressing Up the Failure, under the moniker ‘Starch Martins,’ brought performances with Jon Brion, Mike Doughty, and Justin Townes Earle.  Fizzlebuzzie gained further national and international attention with features in such media outlets as NME.comand Performing Songwriter, who claimed the record “a box of chocolates for your ears.”  The beautifully alarming and infectious Weightless with its single “The Cornflakes Song,” featuring Glen Phillips of Toad the Wet Sprocket, garnered radio spins across the country.  It also landed a spot on Paste Magazine’s CD compilation for their 2007 year-end issue. Popmatters.com weighed in on the album adding “(he) crafts fault-free melodies that make the listener very eager to find out what’s around the corner.” On the self-produced Inc. EP, Prall fused lush vocals with straightforward guitars to assemble a quintet of oddly pop-fueled gems.  His final “pre-DICKIE” venture was his studio collaboration with Pat Sansone (Wilco, Autumn Defense), producing three whip-smart singles that were golden online giveaways.\nThis solid effort is a matching of Prall’s personal experience with Priceman’s ability to emphasize the storylines with surgical beauty. He lived them, and she punctuates those truths. Her string arrangements – even her voice – wrap around his biographical narrative as endearing support to the misfortune he so attractively delivers.\nWebsite\n \nFAQs\nAre there ID or minimum age requirements to enter the event? Unless otherwise indicated, all of our shows are all ages.
