<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><b>David Gray</b> has established himself as one of the UK’s leading music artists both at home and overseas. Gray’s commercial success is also backed up by a critical consensus and numerous accolades. His 2009

<i>Mutineers</i>, finds the singer-songwriter steering into unfamiliar territory while cultivating a pugnacious but respectful relationship with his own history. The lead single off of the album, ‘<i>Back In The World,’
</i>garnered much praise and reached top 10 in the AAA charts. <i>Mutineers</i> is an experiment that seems to fizz with the joy of its own assembly. The sound of a musician making a clean break and some sharp turns but also reconnecting with the freedoms of
an earlier dream, a rebuke and a salutation to all that’s gone before. <o:p></o:p></p>

<b>Amos Lee</b> released his self-titled debut in 2004 and followed with critically acclaimed <i>Supply and Demand</i> (2006) and <i>Last Days at the Lodge</i> (2008). But it was with 2011’s <i>Mission Bell</i> that brought Amos to nationwide mainstream attention.
It debuted at No. 1 on the <i>Billboard </i>200, and contained the No. 1 Triple A radio hit “Windows Are Rolled Down.” Last year, Lee headlined amphitheaters and delivered mainstage performances at top festivals supporting
<i>Mountains Of Sorrow, Rivers Of Song </i>(2013)<i>. </i>He has been featured on numerous acclaimed television programs including
<i>Live from the Artists Den</i>, <i>Ellen</i> and <i>Live from Daryl’s House. </i>Lee recently collaborated with Asleep at the Wheel on its star-studded Bob Wills tribute CD,
<i>Still the King Celebrating the Music of Bob Wills and his Texas Playboys </i>and joined the legendary western swing band during its
<i>Austin City Limits</i> taping.<i> </i>Amos Lee will also record PBS’ Bluegrass Underground for broadcast later this year. With a style that combines blues, country, gospel and roots-rock with a “strikingly soulful voice” (<i>Entertainment Weekly),
</i>Lee’s career continues to reach new heights and earn the attention of fellow artists and discerning music fans around the world.</span><span style="color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
