Cleveland, Ohio native, Orlando Watson is a lyricist who’s soulful, baritone voice weaves through words with uncanny rhythmic delivery. His début project titled “Everything’s Personal” garnered national attention and propelled him to open for Chantae Cann and Lalah Hathaway’s perspective tours in 2018. His distinctive voice and unorthodox wordplay have led him to share the stage with world-class acts such as: Terence Blanchard, Dominic Farinacci, Braxton Cook, Damien Sneed, Jessica Caremoore, and Tye Tribbett to name a few. Watson currently serves as the Associate Director for the Tri-C JazzFest where he’s crafted a creative writing workshop called “UNDERSTANZA” to show high school students the rich intersections that connect Spoken Word Poetry, Hip-Hop and Jazz. Orlando’s passion for faith, family, community and culture are always reflected in his art, as he sees himself as a bridge between social barriers built to further divide humankind.

CASSANDRA 
Her voice is like no other. Her songs provide true worship for those after God’s heart and energetic praise that will keep you uplifted. Her motivational music encourages the discouraged to rejoice and be glad. Cleveland native Cassandra has ministered across the nation before thousands and desires to share her gift worldwide. "My passion is leading God's people into His presence"- Cassandra. 

CASSANDRA was born and raised in Cleveland OH. Singing since she was three, this psalmist comes from a long line of singers going back several generations in her family. Throughout her youth, she was involved in different choirs and even played the cello for some years. It was in college where Cassandra became serious about her God given vocal talent and decided to take vocal training to strengthen her gift. Since then, she has blossomed into an anointed worship leader, gifted song writer, stage and screen actress and musician (guitar). 

CASSANDRA released her first single "Love you for you" in 2005 which spear headed her first album "This Walk: Chapter 1" in 2006. A second single (but first CCM production) entitled "Background" was released with Urgency Records in 2009. After a few years ministering as a worship leader (and with other Christian groups and solo artists) Cassandra has come back to release a third (pop) single "Come Alive". Staying true to her simple yet impacting sound, Come Alive sends a strong message to the listener, that you can overcome any adversity when you stand on God's word, and that's when a believer truly comes alive. Her new album “Arise: Permission to Live” is available now at www.csmusicgirl.org. Stay connected with Cassandra on Twitter, Facebook, Reverbnation, Youtube and more!
