Krista Muir is an accomplished singer songwriter, performer, composer, recordist, multi-instrumentalist, mixer and collaborator - her life's work centered on song making and sharing. From co-writes with DJ Kid Koala to placements in tv series Dance Academy and feature film "Rosie" to touring globally as Lederhosen Lucil, Muir lives to sing all things. She is currently looking to join a barbershop quartet, find a 3-piece jazz combo to record with, and continue to make custom songs - Chanson-O-Grammes - for those in need of cheer. Her motto? To sing all things!

After becoming a Dad a couple years back, Matt Beaudry has been writing and performing his brand of dad-core folk songs around Ottawa. Come watch Matt strum a crappy guitar and hear his take on topics like changing diapers, back pain, centipedes, pasta and being a three year old.

A longtime veteran of Ottawa’s garage/punk/rock music communities Patrick Shanks has lately been mining his vast catalogue of songs and performing them solo on electric guitar and voice. His compositions have been called clever and comedic, often offering a skewed look at city life. Expect topics such as bicycle riding, travelling, hanging out at the record store or punching baby giraffes.
