Michael Grady
Michael Grady is an award-winning, accomplished songwriter whose dexterity on the guitar (any instrument with frets, really) has made him a powerhouse in the studio and on stage. His writing is thoughtful, powerful, and doesn’t fit in to any one genre. Guitar, mandolin, banjo…whatever instrument has the right voice is the one that takes center stage. His lyrics are timely, funny, heartbreaking, tender and engaging.
Jim Ballard is a journeyman singer songwriter, producer and film music composer.

To date, Ballard has 19 album releases and a number of singles. Poised for his next release, Jim has returned to the stage in concert venues, bringing along a seasoned set of musicians, drawing from the best of his 19 albums.
