Michael Alexander of Michael Alexander the Blue Sky Mind joined us one afternoon in August for a Podcast prior to opening the Jordan Cook at the CAU Showcase at the Bottom Lounge that night.Michael put out an excellent show for both the Podcast and the showcase that night. I am certain that you will enjoy his music.

Caxton is a modern alternative rock band inspired musically by The Beatles, Brian Setzer, Blondie, Steve Wonder The band includes founding members and childhood friends Adam Surdin (guitar) and Brett McLaughlin (bass/vocals); Christina Reyes (vocals/piano), who grew up in Orange County; and Brian Pelletier (drums), also a desert native.

The Bergamot has earned instant comparisons to the likings of Adele, Dave Matthews, with a little Michael Jackson thrown into the mix. Classically trained, Nathan Hoff is a multi-faceted artist, fulfilling an impressive array of roles from songwriting to engineering. On the other hand, Jillian Speece holds down the house with her crafty songwriting and powerfully beautiful vocals that will stop you dead in your tracks.

The Real Jane Martin is an acoustic rock duo from Chicago, IL. Musician-songwriters Mark Burns and Allen Rein formed TRJM in 2006 and have released two studio albums: Simple Math in 2009 and North of Nowhere in 2011.These guys are such fun and so creative. I highly recommend that you go see them live whenever they are nearby.

Michael Narvaez brought Mike Reidy and the boys in to record a show, which turned into a show full of Magic, Music, and damnit all, just about the most fun we've ever had recording these past Six Years.

Nadia Thomas (formerly Piotrowski) as in Congratulations on getting married joined us with friend and fellow musician Christine Knodle came into the studio along with a bunch of CAU friends and knocked our collective sox off. Nadia is an excellent performer and songwriter and with Christine on piano and violin created a beautiful night of music and laughs.

This is CAU's Merry Christmas Show to our Listeners. Mr. Shawn Phillips Shawn is a dear friend who was in town on a National Tour and came it to the studio to record this Podcast.Shawn is an amazing man with 20+ albums to his credit and guest appearances on Donovan's Sunshine Superman and Beatle albums. I first met Shawn at the venue "Studio in the Rockies" in Vail, Colorado which I was involved. He came in and did two sold out shows.

Back in August, Ashley Wolf brought a young man from Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada into the studio to record a Podcast prior to his headlining our live CAU Showcase at the bottom lounge. Because we were really busy, I had not had the time to go to his site and listen to him.

In the catagory of Lost but now found, comes a wonderful Singer/Songwriter from Bloomington/Normal, Illinois. I apologize for it's lateness, but this is most surely a case of better now than never. Enjoy this show, I know you will.
