Katie Rox -
One year removed from a whirlwind stint with Canadian industrial pop stars Jakalope, Katie is back, this time armed with an acoustic guitar. Katie is currently on tour in support of her disc High Standards. http://www.ktrox.com

Lesley Pike
At first glance, Lesley Pike looks nothing like a classically trained musician. Taking the stage at Revival nightclub in Toronto, Pike’s strapless red taffeta dress, blonde bob and 5 inch pumps suggest a glamorous, old Hollywood star quality. Her stage repartee is clever and cunning enough to keep even the most cynical of audiences engaged and chuckling between songs. Unfaltering strength and lyrical prowess have audiences cheering for her like a local sports hero by shows’ end.

And somewhere in the midst of her star presence, charm and powerful verses, we’ve forgotten that Pike has written, arranged and delivered each of the tracks in their complex musical glory - floating between the guitar stand and piano bench with ease, despite those ruby red five inchers. http://www.lesleypike.com
