Touring both as a trio and as a solo acoustic guitar and piano act, Paul Inman's Delivery have released 4 full-length CD's of deftly performed gothic-tinged Americana infused with folk and pop.

Jolene’s what they call a unicorn - a rare breed of singer-songwriter raised by Music CIty.

And by two musical parents who have worked with Johnny, Willie, & Emmylou. Her dad, celebrated sound engineer and songwriter Donivan Cowart, worked with Dolly. Her name was going to be Wendy.

A studio mouse from the time she was born, she soaked in the influences of Emmylou, Lari White, and Lee Ann Womack. She listened to Roseanne Cash records being mixed and Rodney Crowell songs as they were written, teaching her the power of sharing our stories through music; the empathy, healing, and beauty a song holds.

And as she grew up and started collecting records by Sheryl Crow, the Chicks, and Fiona Apple, her blend of roots Americana, folk, & 90s rocker chick developed into her sound and a storied life, her coal mine.

Recently off the road with her adopted "Uncle" Rodney Crowell, Jolene is currently touring to promote her EP due out soon featuring the song "Bloom" written with Grammy award winner Melody Walker produced by Dan Knobler.

Introducing Mystic Tiger — a dynamic acoustic duo blending soulful vocals, smooth saxophone, flute, guitar, and keys into an unforgettable live experience. 

Featuring Christina Dillon and Danny Mancuso, the duo brings a stylish mix of R&B, yacht rock, pop favorites, and laid-back grooves.

With warm energy, rich musicianship, and a fun, classy vibe, Mystic Tiger creates the perfect soundtrack for a great night out.

Come by to hear a selection of original numbers and some covers performed by the students of our own Los Alamitos HS Vocal Production Class!

LAST FIRST KISS is an Americana, country, and bluegrass duo built on deep musical roots, lived experience, and a shared love for timeless songs. Blending tradition with raw, modern energy, the duo delivers heartfelt performances that honor the past while feeling fully alive in the present.

Fronting the band is lead vocalist Sheryl Bard, daughter of legendary Ohio bluegrass musician Frank Bard, whose influence and legacy loom large in the Midwest roots music scene. Frank Bard was a respected figure in traditional bluegrass, known for preserving the genre’s storytelling spirit and passing its values down through generations. Music runs even deeper in Sheryl’s bloodline—her grandmother was an accordionist in the Ohio gospel group The Glory Land Travelers, bringing sacred harmonies and gospel tradition into the family’s musical foundation. Raised among bluegrass standards, gospel songs, and front-porch harmonies, Sheryl Bard carries forward a multigenerational American music legacy with a voice steeped in authenticity and soul.

On guitar and backing vocals is Ed Solis, a versatile and seasoned musician known locally as the founder and bassist of The Rumrunners Southern Rock Experience. Formed at Bogart’s, The Rumrunners quickly rose through the Southern California music scene, performing at prominent venues including The Gaslamp and The Garden, earning a reputation for high-energy, roots-driven live shows.

Solis brings a uniquely broad musical background to LAST FIRST KISS. Deeply rooted in the hardcore punk and crossover thrash metal scenes, he co-founded the band Revolution Mother alongside professional skateboarding legend Mike Vallely. From 2005–2007, the band completed three national North American tours, including a run as direct support for CKY, cementing Solis’s experience as a touring musician on major stages.

As a recording artist and producer, Solis has released 10 full-length studio albums, available on all major digital platforms including Spotify, Apple Music, and YouTube Music, under the band names It’s Casual, Niños De La Tierra, and Matador. Producing and performing on every release, Solis has established himself as a skilled sonic architect with a sharp ear for tone, arrangement, and emotional impact.

Together, Sheryl Bard and Ed Solis unite tradition and edge, lineage and life experience, to perform country, bluegrass, and Americana classics under the name LAST FIRST KISS. Their music speaks to back roads, front porches, hard lessons, and lasting love—songs meant to be felt as much as they are heard.

LAST FIRST KISS is where generations meet, roots run deep, and American music lives on.

If Nick Justice’s career has found him lurking below the radar, it’s only because he’s the one that initially put the brakes on. Weaned on the Southern California sound — as represented by the Eagles, Crosby, Stills and Nash and Jackson Browne — he was lured to the Golden State in the late ‘80s and became a journeyman troubador of sorts — busking, paying his dues in various itinerate ensembles and playing for whoever would listen. Eventually he worked his way up to the status of an opening act, serving a support role to number of important outfits — X, the Blasters, the Radiators, INXS, the Del Fuegos and other ‘80s and ‘90s scene-setters.

Justice has a knack for sharing a kind of breezy balladry and while his is a generally unassuming sound, the music is still seeped in sentiment and an easy, affable embrace. Nick Justice is a great storyteller in the true fashion of the traveling Troubador. With 5 previous critically acclaimed solo records and one collaboration with The SideMen, Justice is currently finishing up his 6th solo record titled "Stranger in My Town" produced by folk legend Joel Rafael and a supporting cast of Greg Leisz on pedal steel and dobro (Jackson Browne Band), Mai Leisz on bass (David Crosby Band), and Richard Stekol on guitar (Honk, Funky Kings).

Joining Nick will be a prolific songwriter with a poetic flair, James Combs, who has been called "one of folk-pop's best kept secrets" by the LA Weekly and "the missing link between Low and John Lennon" by UK's Guardian newspaper. James has released 9 albums and performed on stages from Berlin to Paris to New Orleans to the Houdini mansion in Laurel Canyon. He has shared stages with artists as diverse as Jackson Browne, Van Dyke Parks, Tom Verlaine, Sarah Bareilles, Tenacious D, Yo La Tengo, Marianne Faithfull, They Might Be Giants, and actor John C. Reilly. James also just might be the only songwriter you know who has had a song he wrote featured in a question by Alex Tribek on Jeopardy!   His songs have been featured in some of the coolest shows on TV, including Six Feet Under and Shameless and he co-wrote a True Blood end title song sung by the great Iggy Pop. James plays in the folk harmony duo GREAT WILLOW with Erin Hawkins and is also a board member of Folk Alliance’s FAR-West Conference. www.jamescombs.com

Andie Mechanic is a songwriter, artist, and producer who recently graduated from Berklee College of Music. “My life is a revolving door of experiencing, processing, and expressing myself through song. I have a passion for exploring the most deep-seated/uncomfortable of human emotions and then neatly packaging them into three minute cathartic, listening experiences. My career is heavily focused around writing for other artists and helping them express themselves, but I decided to share my own music as a way of testing just how honest and vulnerable I can get in a song” Come by to hear her great music!

Aiko is a Sacramento jazz singer. As a graduate student in the mid-1980s, she developed a passion for jazz while working as a jazz DJ at her university’s radio station. Following this exposure, and after singing jazz for a few years, she began her own journey in developing as a singer/songwriter guitarist, drawing from her life experiences and broad sweep of musical influences. 
 
 After a few decades of performing as a singer/songwriter (she still occasionally plays her original music), she now mainly performs as a jazz singer at local venues in the Sacramento area. She also hosts a jazz jam session in Roseville for young aspiring musicians, while also serving as a mentor. 
 


Cassandra Wilson, Betty Carter, Abby Lincoln, Chet Baker, Arto Lindsay, Joni Mitchell, Shirley Horn, Dina Washington, Billie Holiday, Monica Salmaso, and Karrin Allyson are among Aiko’s most significant vocal touchstones, and she continues to discover newer artists to be inspired by. Aiko’s approach is a more restrained tone that deliberately avoids typical jazz inflections and sometimes the over-emoting mannerisms often associated with the genre. She strives to remain genuine and authentic to her own unique singing style. 
 
 Most of Aiko’s musical career has taken place in Seattle, where she spent 20 years of her life in her 30s and 40s performing her own music. Some of the musicians she has worked with include Bill Frisell, Robin Holcomb, Hans Teuber, and many more. Bill Frisell appeared on her 2001 album on John Zorn’s Tzadik label as a guest musician, and she toured on the East Coast with Robin Holcomb/Wayne Horvitz in 2003.

In 2008, the world-renowned pianist Jessica Williams asked Aiko to share the stage to collaborate on some tunes. She has also played, recorded, and collaborated with NY bassist and one of her mentors, Lonnie Plaxico (who has played with jazz greats such as Art Blakey, Wynton Marsalis, Jack DeJohnette, Cassandra Wilson, and many more). 
 
 Currently, Aiko enjoys playing with Sacramento jazz musicians of all kinds, interpreting songs from the deep jazz catalog. She lately has especially enjoyed working with Sac State students, and frankly with anyone else who wants to play, because, first and foremost, she loves nothing more than interacting with other musicians.
