Train
Over the course of 15 years, Train has made its mark on music history with their Grammy-Award-winning song "Drops of Jupiter (Tell Me)" and chart-topping singles "Meet Virginia" and "Calling All Angels." Since forming in San Francisco in 1994, the multi-platinum selling band has traveled a long, successful and sometimes arduous journey. Following their 2006 release, For Me, It's You, the band took a three-year hiatus, and in that time, Train has, for all intents and purposes, experienced an epiphany as a whole. Now, with their fifth album, Save Me San Francisco, Train has channeled their early days, revisiting the roots rock sound that has made the band such a tour de force - and, in turn, the band is united stronger than ever before.
The Fray
Easily one of the biggest names in pop-rock at the moment, The Fray straddles two time-tested formulas popularized by everyone from U2 to the Counting Crows. On one side of the spectrum, you’ve got your lighter-to-the-sky arena-rock tunes, while on the other, a carefully introspective acoustic pop to balance things out. Vocalist Isaac Slade and Joe King formed the group after bumping into each other at a record shop a decade ago (good story, right?), and released their first full length in 2005, to rave reviews. Since then, the Fray has continued its upward climb; their new self-titled album has been comfortably parked on the Billboard Chart since its release earlier this year.
Matt Nathanson
"Matt Nathanson was born at Beth Israel Hospital in Boston, MA on March 28, 1973. Since picking up a guitar at the age of 6, Matt knew he wanted to be a musician. His strong, sincere lyrics and inspired musicianship have led many people to become die-hard fans after only a listen. His charm and sincerity in person, as well as his energetic and often humorous live shows have also endeared many a listener to his unique blend of acoustic folk and rock 'n' roll attitude." - bio from sing365.com
