SARAH NAPOLITAN
http://www.reverbnation.com/sarahnapolitan

Sarah Napolitan is a singer-songwriter based in Philadelphia, PA. Her
music combines the vulnerability of the human experience with openness
and honesty, simultaneously celebrating and grieving anything from
nature to love. Sarah strives to create intimacy with her audience
through a bared soul and striking lyrics. She is an artist who writes
and performs not to be well-known, but to be known. She also performs
with The Turnips, a heartfelt and footstompin extreme folk band who has
played the Philadelphia Folk Festival, and also has performed multiple
times on WXPN Gene Shays Folk Show.


KWESI K
http://www.kwesik.com/

Kwesi K (Kway-see Kay) is of Ghanian descent, but was born in Alaska
and raised in Ohio. His weapons of choice are an acoustic guitar and a
soulful mind. His influence took root with early exposure to his
brother’s music collection, which was filled with folk, hip-hop and
rock. But high school was spent training for track, football, basketball
and lacrosse. Kwesi received a football scholarship to Lehigh
University in Pennsylvania, though his athletic fervor was soon eclipsed
by a love for the fine arts. He studied abroad in Barcelona, where he
finally realized he wanted to become a songwriter.

His new
life goal has recently come to fruition as he released his first EP, Ran
Away From Me, back in March 2012. Since then, he has been touring
America extensively from coffee shops to large venues in hopes that his
soul-centric and heartfelt music will catch on. His latest single, "By
My Side", was dropped not too long ago. Fans of easy-listening acoustic
music, of the Ben Harper or Jack Johnson variety, will instantly fall in
love with Kwesi's style.
