Ryan Shupe & the Rubberband - September 11, 2008
Ryan Shupe and the RubberBand are a breathtaking blast of manic musical virtuosity. Sheer joy seems to pour out of the speakers when they start playing, and it may be that they sound that way because the five members of the band--Roger Archibald (guitar, vocals), Colin Botts (bass, vocals), Craig Miner (banjo, bouzouki, guitar, mandolin and vocals), Bart Olson (drums), and Ryan Shupe (lead vocals, fiddle, mandolin and guitar) are not only extremely talented, they're having a great time. The five musicians share a ravenous appetite for all types of music, with the band's influences including such diverse performers as Willie Nelson, Johnny Cash, Bob Marley, the Police, AC/DC and Bela Fleck. Most have dabbled with a number of different instruments; all have been playing since they were kids. They have released 5 albums and are a real treat to watch. Think of this as a musical smiley face with occasional moments of studied calm.
James Oneil Miner – October 18, 2008
Fast becoming one of today's most popular pianists, composers, and entertainers, James Oneil Miner continues an intense recording and touring schedule. Audiences world-wide have enjoyed attending his concerts and have been impressed by his large repertoire of songs. His ability to play spontaneous requests from audience members has thrilled and amazed his listeners. In addition to taking requests, his performances often include imitating famous piano artists such as Liberace, Erroll Garner, George Schering, Floyd Kramer, Marvin Hamlish, and Roger Williams.

Miner was recently honored with the prestigious "Instrumentalist of the Year" award from the World Wide Bookseller's Organization.
Vocal Point – January 30, 2009
Vocal Point, Brigham Young University's premiere contemporary a cappella ensemble, reaches new heights in acappella music. Under the direction of James Stevens, Vocal Point's nine-man vocal firepower propels harmonies far beyond traditional four-part possibilities. With inventive arrangements, humor, and remarkable vocal percussion, Vocal Point continually invigorates audiences and generates fans. They are the winners of the 2006 International Championship of Collegiate A Capella and winners of three 2005 Pearl awards.
The Bar J Wranglers – February 25, 2009
Some folks call it a western music show; some call it a stand-up comedy show with masterful cowboy music; others call it the best musical experience in the west. Call it what you want to -- the fact remains; The Bar J Wranglers from Jackson Hole, Wyoming, deliver some of the purest harmony, best musicianship and funniest ranch humor ever seen on stage. As soon as the Bar J Wranglers take to the stage, listeners leave behind their busy life and settle into a time long ago -- a time of the singing cowboy. We are excited to welcome the Wranglers to our stage!
