Breanna Elaine is a full time musician, singer/songwriter based out of Vermont. Breanna’s music is dripping with plenty of earthy folk, indie, singer/songwriter sounds, but the term “folk music” does not fully encapsulate the work of this blooming musician. Her debut album, “Seedlings" was released January 1st, 2023. She performs a mix of originals as well as a wide array of covers on both guitar and banjo. Breanna is recognized around Vermont and surrounding areas for her unique sound and songwriting talent. With over 100 original songs that have still yet to be recorded, this is just the beginning for Breanna Elaine, a true star on the rise. “Generally classified on music sites as folk/rock, as the evening went on, it was clear she transcends definition. She’s been compared to Jewel (though Breanna’s covers of Jewel are in many ways superior to the originals), Alanis Morissette, and Janis Ian. Tack on an early Fiona Apple song and it’s easy to understand just how diversely her talent runs.” -Susan Johnson of the Brandon reporter

Like a lot of kids, Mike Schwaner picked up the guitar in high school. He never gave up on it, and was gigging by college. For 35 years, he has been playing out. He has been in numerous bands that span genres from funk, to punk, rock, metal, and some country. Acoustic solo performance is the latest chapter in his musical career. As a lead guitarist, he likes the freedom to loop classic riffs and run scales and licks over the top.

Don Cahn's musical journey began in the vibrant band scene of the 1960s before he transitioned to the introspective world of folk music in the 1970s. During this time, he graced the stages of Boston and New York City for several years. A brief return to the electric energy of lead guitar in rock bands followed, ultimately leading him back to his compelling solo acoustic performances. Don's current sound is a rich tapestry woven from blues, rock, country, and jazz influences, highlighted by his own well-crafted original songs and distinctive vocals. Over the years, he has captivated audiences at notable venues such as Cafe Lena's and The Strand, as well as numerous other concert halls, both large and intimate.

Electrostatic Cats are a musical duo formed by long-time co-workers and best friends Gayle Malinowski and Jonathan Czar. While most duos typically produce acoustic-oriented music, ESC plays full-on electric versions of their favorite alt/modern rock from the 90’s and up as well as original material. Although they employ the use of technology to reproduce the sounds as faithfully as possible, there is no use of recorded backing tracks or other automation (unless it was a component of the original song they’re covering).

Gayle Malinowski - vocals, drums, keyboards

Jonathan Czar - vocals, electric guitar, midi/bass pedals, keyboards
