Pretty Poison featuring Jade Starling
This award winning singer/ songwriter is best known for the #1 platinum hit "Catch Me I'm Falling" on Virgin Records. Along with co-founder, musician/producer/ arranger Whey Cooler, they are the driving force of Pretty Poison. This ground-breaking late 80's pop band helped pave the way for crossover acts such as Britney Spears, Christina Agulera and Pink. Jade has been increasingly in the public eye of late; Pretty Poison have just placed Catch Me I'm Falling in Margaret Cho's new movie "Bam Bam & Celeste," set for 2006 release. (also check out "10th & Wolf" starring Val Kilmer and "Lord Of The Fans" about the fan phenomenom that swirled around the "Lord Of The Rings" trilogy). Catch Me I'm Falling can be heard on VH1's "I Love The Eighties 3D" 1987 during the Jessica McClure segment.

A regular on the national singer/songwriter circuit, Doria Roberts creates songs that have been described as "a delicious, bohemian blend of folk, jazz and pop". Doria’s versatility as a songwriter and entertainer is never lost whether she is performing solo or with her band. As a part time activist, Doria has committed herself to inspiring compassion, social action and change through her music and various projects. She has been inspired by Nina Simone’s "Mississippi Goddamn", Odetta’s "Another Man Done Gone", Janis Ian’s "Society’s Child, Billie Holiday’s "Strange Fruit", John Lennon’s elegy "Working Class Hero", and almost everything by Ani DiFranco, and Patti Smith. The personal experience sometimes becomes political and the stage sometimes becomes a forum — a space not only to entertain, but to also inform.

Lisa Bouchelle
"A star of the future... and judging from the reaction of the crowd at this show, the not-to-distant future at that."
-- The Aquarian Weekly
A "petite female powderkeg" that can "fill the Grand Canyon with her voice" is how one magazine describes Lisa Bouchelle. A fitting description, as she was voted one of the top female vocalists in the world by the readers of Japan's Burrn Magazine, and in the top twenty in several other international magazine polls.
The young singer/songwriter has already created a buzz on the underground music scene, stemming from a duet she sang with James LaBrie of Dream Theater, as well as several other guest appearances with internationally known artists. These recordings have led to extensive critical acclaim in the underground press, and to live appearances at prestigious venues such as the Theatre of the Living Arts in Philadelphia, PA, and The War Memorial Theater in Trenton, NJ. She has also sung the national anthem several times at Veterans Stadium in Philadelphia before Phillies games, as well as at Waterfront Park in Trenton, NJ, home to one of the New York Yankees' farm teams.
