Loren Barrigar is reminiscent of the late Chet Atkins whom he performed the track “Yakety Axe” from at just six years old at the Grand Ole Opry in Nashville to the delight of country fans, making him the youngest guitarist to perform on that famous stage. Barrigar is known for a relaxed but energetic stage presence which commands the audience’s attention with his easygoing, transitional and fluid movement between old time standards, rock and original tunes. Barrigar won a SAMMY award in 2009 for Best Country CD for his album, “Dance With Me”. Barrigar is also one of the founders of the Syracuse-based Guitar League which helps to benefit amateur musicians.

Dusty Pas’cal is a Skaneateles resident who is compared lyrically to acoustic icon John Prine. Highly influenced by his songwriter father, who first put a guitar in Dusty’s hands at age thirteen, Dusty stays grounded about the music business, refusing to let its commercial aspect affect his creativity. “Writing music has never been about the money”, he’s said. He’d rather you hear the inconsistencies like the “pop” of the guitar strings in order to really experience and appreciate the art of music and performance. “I've always just had a real appreciation for the honesty of the music. I like to think of my albums as a sequence of life. So 20 years from now, I can look back at the songs and really know what was happening in my life at the time.” The ability to connect with his audience is a key element of Dusty.
