BOB MARSHALL
Cowboy ~ Singer/Songwriter ~ Poet ~ Storyteller
Bob has rodeo'ed professionally, trained horses and currently owns a working horse ranch where he continues his life long passion to train and board horses. The path Bob leads is a generational one, following in the foot steps of his cowboy father
If you sit quietly beneath a tall evergreen at the edge of a green pasture, and listen past the sound of the horses munching contentedly on their evening feed, you may hear the soft strains of a twelve string guitar playing an old cowboy tune.

You guys sounded & felt wonderful. Besides the music, your sense of humor and the 'Sonny & Cher' type banter between you two was funny & fun. Glad I went."
Jeff, Ann Arbor,

BILLY BRANDT & SARANA VERLIN
Their style is a fusion of Pop, Folk, Rock, Alt-Country, Celtic and Americana...imagine the soul of Joni Mitchell, the vibe of Stevie Nicks, a bit of celtic fiddling...combined with the DNA of Neil Young and the voice of Gram Parsons...mix in some sweetly blended harmonies and you have Billy Brandt and Sarana VerLin.

LINDSAY LOU and the FLATBELLYS
Hailing from all corners of the Great Lakes State of Michigan, Lindsay Lou & the Flatbellys are giving a nod to American traditional music, while boldy taking their own songs in new directions. Distinct vocals, tight harmonies, instrumental expertise, and creative arrangements are all essential characteristics of their unique sound. The group focuses on the original tunes of Lindsay Lou Rilko, which include true-life tales of bank-robbing aunties, moonshinin' grandpas, and celebrations of love, life, and nature. Don't be surprised to hear bluegrass standards, Beatles hits, and contemporary classics at a Flatbelly's show as well. It's an infectious vibe that could only have been born in the heart of America's Fresh Coast!
