Blue Molly was formed in 2007 by a group of close friends. The band loves to perform blues, classic

popular favorites. The band is quickly becoming a new favorite and their energy and camaraderie on stage is obvious as they create a unique connection with audiences of all ages. And with a lead singer who has been likened to a young Aretha Franklin, what’s not to love?

Afro-Zep(Led Zeppelin/Afrobeat)

Some tunes are straight mash-ups of Fela Kuti and Zeppelin; others are Zep tunes but set to original grooves, and still others are stripped down arrangements featuring African drumming. Arrangements such as this show how the roots of Plant and Page’s songwriting can be traced even further back to the roots of blues music.

rediscovered the blues and the music of B.B King and Stevie Ray Vaughan. Gerald cut his guitar and vocal chops live and in person with a variety of local bands. Now in his 40’s, Gerald is playing nationally with his own band, performing at clubs and festivals.

The Lincoln County Process(Roots/Blues)

The Lincoln County Process, featuring Jen Sygit, Sam Corbin, Geoff Lewis, and Joe VanAcker, is a roots/blues band based out of Lansing.

With soulful vocals and rich harmonies, the group brings a new sound to their wide selection of original music.

Dutch Henry(Alternative/Americana)

Dutch Henry is an alt/country/pop band that was formed in Michigan in 2001. The group took its name

which Dutch Henry was the villain. The four-member band has shared the stage with national acts ranging from Colbie Calliat to Los Lonely Boys. Their music has been featured on college, satellite, and local radio and has been used by both Hewlett Packard Computers and The Outdoor Channel.

Doug PetersonHailing from Kalamazoo, Doug Peterson approaches his music with irreverence and a sense of soul felt sentimentality. His sound has been likened to Cat Stevens, Billy Corgan, and Weird Al playing for a Victorian tea party after the wine has arrived.

Garrett Borns(Indie/Pop)

Garrett Borns is a 20-year-old indie/pop singer-songwriter from West Michigan. Musically inclined

guitar and ukulele, all contributing to his beguiling musical tapestry. It is Garrett’s voice, however, that leaves the strongest impression. His voice is an impeccably sweet and effortless croon, capable of delivering jazz, blues, standards, R&B, folk, or any
