Louie Austen

"Art must be a matter of life and death otherwise it’s not art" is the sincere conviction of Louie. And so is "I will never retire, I will probably die on stage but I do not give a f**k!" One thing the Viennese Electro-crooner does not go for is doing things by half. Whatever he does is done with his fullest commitment and often regardless of the consequences. Admittedly, this reckless attitude has gotten him into serious trouble time and again. And yet it also made him what he is today: a man who finds himself an upcoming and sought-after artist whose career has not yet reached its climax. There is a lot going on in the life of Louie Austen: Touring all around the globe, the recordings of 2 EPs just a few months after he had released his latest album Iguana on internationally renowned klein records

Carla Cook

Carla Cook is daring. She is a jazz singer/songwriter who sings standards beautifully -- but she doesn't stop there.

This native Detroiter, who grew up in a musically rich and diverse environment, brings all her influences to bear within her repertoire. In her songbook you'll find elements of R&B, European classical, Motown, Blues and Gospel. Cook has always eschewed labels, and refuses to become a jazz purist or snob

Chelsea Palermo

Many nine-year-old girls have musical idols. However, very few are also gifted with perfect pitch, and possess a burning desire to follow in the footsteps of their idols. Chelsea Palermo is anything but ordinary. As a little girl, gifted jazz vocalist Chelsea Palermo, was fascinated and inspired by a legend: Ella Fitzgerald. New Jersey native Chelsea Palermo is only 22 years old, but she is already a seasoned performer and interpreter. While she listened to Janet Jackson and Mariah Carey as enthusiastically as her friends, Palermo never saw anything unusual about adoring Ella Fitzgerald at such a young age. “When I was a kid, I was drawn to the energy of pop music and R&B�"and I always will be,” Palermo said recently, “However, I also appreciated the sophistication and nuance of jazz�"and I always wished I could share that with my friends.” Today, as Palermo celebrates the release of her debut studio recording, “All About Love,” she is hoping to do just that: to use her fresh, energetic take on the standards to help bring jazz to a whole new generation. Her renditions of some of the greatest works in the American songbook are entirely unique�"noted as much for the maturity of their execution as for the youth and vibrancy they display

Sharon Rae North

Sharon Rae North’s mother once told her, "No matter what you do on the outside, you’re a singer on the inside." Passion and sophistication embrace jazz vocalist Sharon Rae North’s sophomore CD entitled “The Way You Make Me Feel.” The CD is inspired by the many facets of love - good and bad - because love touches everyone’s life, says North. “The Way You Make Me Feel,” has been a labor of love for North, who took her time selecting and writing songs for the CD over the last two years. The result is a CD that blends classics like “One,” originally recorded by Three Dog Night, which North gives a unique ballad treatment, and Donny Hathaway’s “We’re Still Friends,” with original songs co-written by North and producer/guitarist Vic Smiley.
