Defined by a unique style of music and reaching a wide audience, the edison project is a pop heavy, groove rock band from Augusta, GA that has made their mark on the southeast music scene. In & the edison project was voted Best Rock Band in Augusta by the readers of The Augusta Magazine and earned the opening slot at the hugely successful Drive For Show, Rock Fore! Dough concert Masters Week, where the band began the show featuring Collective Soul and Hootie & the Blowfish. The band sites its influences from a wide range of artists, including Wilco, Ryan Adams, Coldplay, Third Eye Blind, Weezer, Jimmy Eat World, and a multitude of jazz artists. The huge talent in edison shines forth in their progressive anthems and melodic ballads. Most react in amazement when hearing the Edison project for the first time, wondering how these young music lovers can have such a cultivated and coaxing sound, manipulating their instruments and vocals at will and having an almost spiritual effect on the most critical of listeners. Micah Swenson is bass guitar and backup vocals. Zach Swenson is percussion and background vocals. Rino Mendoza is lead guitar, violinist, pianist and backup vocals. David Firmin is lead vocals and rhythm guitar.

The Cornbred Blues Band is one of Knoxville's premier blues fusion bands, incorporating elements of blues, rock, rockabilly, psychedelia, punk, jazz, and traditional Afro Appalachian folk music into a style that encompasses all stages of this area’s rich musical and cultural heritage. The band formed around the nucleus of a wandering, dejected, and clearly disturbed young singer song writer from Morristown, TN, named Jon Worley. After years of wandering the southern juke joints and dives in a vain attempt to play and drink his life away, he decided to stay a while in Knoxville and see what was going on. He soon encountered a bass player from the South Knoxville area named Shaggy sittin’ on a log down in a Vestal holler. Jon offered him some Panther Piss and showed him his patented hillbilly version of Tovan throat singing. It was not long before crossmojanization occurred and they were well on their way. A few weeks later they were scheduled to play a gig in a nasty little dive in North Knox and thought "wouldn't it be fun to have a drummer". It was that night they bound, gagged, and abducted Ricky Mathis, whom they later found out was actually a multiple personality of some other guy, from a peaceful night’s slumber and threw him in the back of a pickup with a three piece to play the show. Shaggy brought his bass and beard. The next piece of the puzzle came together while playing a show on the back porch of Patrick Sullivan's. Lo and Behold Daniel Lancaster, a childhood friend of Jon who hadn't seen him in 7 years due to a juju hex placed upon them in the midst of a vitamin experiment, walked in the door, and the band was complete. Lancaster owed Jon for giving him 5 of his Easter eggs during a hunt at Morristown’s West Elementary when they were in kindergarten and had been trying to work off the debt. The band has been playing, stompin’, and screamin’ every day since. Sometimes they’ll play on a barge for hundreds of people floating on the river and wake up the next morning in a hotel suite, and sometimes they’ll play for bikers by a campfire in North Carolina and wake up half naked in a mountain creek. You can always count on two things: They’ll make the gig, and they’ll have a story to tell when we get there. It’s the life of a Cornbred Kid.

Jake Johnson Band is a cover/original band with a very unique style and sound. With a slight touch of nastalgia for the old-schoolers, and a completely original act for all those into the theatrical. Now add in a pinch of Rock n Roll, a dash of Country, a shake of Blues and a whole lot of Attitude and you have yourself the ingredients for one hell of a show, fueled by The Jake Johnson Bands own brand of music and performance. It's called... Southern Fusion.
