The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus -- A brief listen to The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus' debut album and its obvious these guys have spent a lot of time concentrating on their music. Their songs are flush with determination, hunger, and the energy of youth. And while they tap into elements of pop-punk, pop, screamo, and metal, they combine them in a way that's both surprising and invigorating.

Benny Da Kid -- Benny Da Kidd is a revolutionary music producer, who has an uncanny ability to produce music of tomorrow -- today! He's your new age "rock star" and a product of the new millennium music phenomena. His music is culturally diverse, and encompasses rhythms, beats and sounds for just about everybody.

Zach -- A gifted vocalist and musician who plays guitar, bass, drums and keyboards. "Southern rock with a touch of soul" is how he describes his music. We describe him as someone to look out for at the top of the charts!

Married by Elvis -- An electrifying five-piece country-rock band fronted by female vocalist Julia Garlington, who owns the stage with an unmistakable gutsy, bluesy voice that captures the attention of every soul around her. The group throws down a mix of country-rock originals and handpicked covers with the kind of energy that keeps the house jumpin' all night long. The band is working on its first album, focused on their original flava of rockin country music (Summer '07 release date).

The Lady Tigra -- The Lady Tigra was one of the original members of one of hip-hop's earliest and most influential female duo's when she was just 16 years old. The Lady Tigra's new project is lining up to be a vivid mashing of the styles she helped to pioneer and features Hip Hop Legend MC Lyte and Mr. Han of Linkin Park.
