• 3 Beth Odets •
 Beth Odets is a classically trained concert violinist who threw it all away to become the greatest itinerant fiddlist in Second Life. "I just try not make it sound like cats having sex" -Beth Odets


• 4 Gweeb •
Gweeb delivers a high energy, full solo sound, presented with off-the-wall humor. His humor, singing style and his musical talent will make you a fan from the first song!

• 5 The Matthew Show •
Matthew takes an irreverent look at everyday life and writes songs about it, or finds ones that say what he wants to say.

• 6 Effinjay •
Frogg was a vocal jazz minor at college, while Jay studied piano for 14 years, and together as singer/songwriters they have produced a comprehensive range of heartfelt and memorable melodies and poetically lyrical songs.

See you tonight! @
