Producer, song writer, performer, and working entertainer, Thomas Kjorven has blended his style through his love for the Blues, Neo Soul, Hip Hop, and folk music - "I believe I have found a sound unlike any other". Five albums under his belt and the winner of the 2011 BC Interior Music Award's "New artist of the Year" and "Blues Recording of the year" Thomas has created a name for him self in Western Canada as a dedicated creater, and performer with his unique brand of music.

Jaclyn Gee has a love for music that could not be touched nor replaced by any other. As she always says "I strive for success, not fame", she proves that she is in this for the long run. The 18 year old has a variety of music that consists of a diverse, melodic and ambiguous sound that is good for the soul. She expands her genre so that it is appealing to all crowds. With a soft jazz touch and the knowledge of Hip Hop and an acoustic wave she her intertwines the three to make her own sound. Singing since the day she discovered music, writing has been her escape and way of expression with the desire to touch the lives around her, hoping that her experiences will ease the minds that are troubled, and inspire. She has played numerous shows in BC as well as Calgary and has opened for acts such as The Swollen Members, Snak The Ripper, DL incognito and local underground artists. She has played at many open mics and pubs and has been featured on Immaculates album "My Tall Shadow" and has done numerous performances with him at music festivals such as "Hidden" and various venues. With a sincere outlook and and open mind to possibilities that will benefit her music, she is sure to shine her way through to success...

Kjorven and Gee recently collaborated in an album, BLUE, for which they've released a pair of music videos.
