A native New Yorker, growing up in Yonkers, she began developing her vocal talents by singing in church & community theater by the age of ten. By thirteen she was studying under the guidance of private classical voice instructors & went on to the Westchester Conservatory of Music. By age fourteen she was composing her own contemporary pop songs & was performing for many major city events in her hometown. Though she went on to become a vocal performance major at Syracuse University's Crouse School of Music, Gigi Marie found her real passion for music was in her songwriting. Inspired to have a more creative role in her music, Gigi Marie has endeavored to find her voice as an artist by honing her craft in the downtown New York music scene.She is currently signed under management at Playlist Music Groups & is busy performing in New York City clubs such as The Bitter End & Crash Mansion. www.myspace.com/gigi

AUDREY RYAN, 11pm to 12am
Leo Weekly of Louisville, KY recently described Audrey as a Singer-songwriter/indie-pop goddess “Ryan is like Joni Mitchell and Radiohead playing some kind of hybrid jazz music that- and this is why her stuff is so good- just doesn't exist anywhere else”. Audrey's music is lyrical, eclectic, innovative, and genre-bending. Her songwriting blends together the influences of her parent?s generation Joni Mitchell, Dylan, and Neil Young - her generation Radiohead, Wilco, and Arcade Fire. The Seven Days in Burlington,
VT described Audrey's music as anything but formulaic. With its liberal use of jazz progressions, quick tempo shifts, and a vast sea of musical influences, the album has myriad sounds and reflections. As a performer she has been hailed nationally both as a gifted songwriter and as a seasoned instrumentalist and improviser.
