Spencer Cunningham (on the right in the photo) sings and plays claw-hammer banjo, Guitar and Mandolin, solo or in the string band, "Ten Mile Creek".

His music is drawn from the wonderful old gospel songs he heard as a child while staying with his grand father, who was a Methodist minister in southern Ohio, the folk music he was drawn to in college, and the appalachian ballad and string band music he regularly indulges in through local and regional festivals and 'jams'.

Spencer teaches photography at the Toledo Museum of Art, and Owens Commuunity College. An exhibition, and/or photography/music workshop along with a concert by Spencer or "Ten Mile Creek" is an option.

fairly minimal and sometimes ethereal soul indebted rock (or was that folk) music that floats between personal rumination and political critique

Tim Shue comes to us from Kidron, Ohio, where he is director of music at Central Christian High School. At home on the guitar, fiddle, and other folk instruments, Tim performs unique arrangements of hymns and original songs. Inspired to by topics like his native Kansas, tornadoes, grandma, church life, to his favorite hobby of birding, Tim's songs are driven by stories, meaning, and connection.

Trent Wagler & the Steel Wheels remind me of something I've never heard before. Acoustic String Band and solitary soul performance, bounding fiddle tunes, and deep lyrical landscapes. No wonder John Bright called him "an americana songmaster."
