Todd Lewis Kramer is a Connecticut-bred singer/songwriter who called New York City home for more than a decade until unpredictable times prompted a multi-year road trip with his guitar in tow. TLK’s sound is Americana at heart and features a catalog of nostalgic, heartfelt lyrics to complement his smooth, baritone vocals.

New material on the way! Until then check out a version of "Crossroads" recorded live to my old beat up Zoom recorder. The Texas bluesish "Where You Been Going"" and the ballad "Vivian" are old band tunes recorded a while back by the talented Jeff Fiorello. Enjoy & see you soon - Jon

Ace Elijah journeys through many styles and genres from jazz to soul to blues and traditional pop. Ace's rich, baritone voice paired with his 18 years of experience on acoustic guitar adds to his powerful storytelling and completes the whole package for this 22 year old singer/songwriter. It's no surprise that people from all over the world are finding themselves captivated by his performances.

"When I'm on stage, I'm the happiest I'll ever be" says Ace, "I love recording, don't get me wrong, but every night I play a song it will be different than the last, even though the differences may be subtle."

Ace spent his earlier years in London, where he received his first guitar at age 4. His taste for jazz developed much later when he moved to America and saw a movie with a soundtrack that intrigued him. Although never trained in school for jazz guitar, Ace has spent many years studying his craft with private teachers.

"I will always considered myself a student, I recently started reading Nelson Riddle's book on arranging, and I know, no matter how much knowledge I gain, there's always so much more to learn."

At age 17, Ace began playing publicly in the Mid-Atlantic area. After five years, countless gigs, international tours, and three well-received full-length albums, Ace has really begun to make a name for himself.

Ace's newest release, The Lonely Night's Are All That's Left (on MARVA Records), is selling like hot cakes at shows and online since its launch in October. "I really think this album shows where I want to go with my songs, and how much I've developed from my previous two albums."

This is only the beginning for Ace Elijah. Expect, as many already do, to know by heart these memorable tunes that Ace is writing. His songs have powerfully catchy melodies; built on classic chord changes reminiscent of the great standards. He has been described as "well beyond his years." It's easy to forget that Ace is only 22 years of age. He has a long and very promising career ahead of him, and you can tell he is enjoying every minute.

Jesse Terry is a singer/songwriter with an uncanny ability to weave tales of travel and homecoming, of sorrow and of redemption, into songs that are simultaneously timeless and fresh. Home is now the coastal village of Stonington, Connecticut, but Terry’s music reflects an amalgam of influences, from Nashville to Laurel Canyon. His melodic and lyrically-driven Americana fits naturally on a playlist between cuts from Josh Ritter, Jackson Browne, Ryan Adams and Neil Young.
 
"I think I always needed music," Terry explains. That simple truth encapsulates the style of an artist whose lyrical depth has garnered multiple songwriting accolades. The buzz over Jesse Terry continues to build, with tours bringing him from coast to coast and across oceans to the UK, Italy, the Netherlands, and New Zealand. His music has appeared in CW's Hart of Dixie and PBS's Roadtrip Nation. Earlier this year, ABC used "Stay Here With Me" for its series "Forever." 
 
And next up this summer: Bonnaroo, where Jesse will share the stage with the likes of Alabama Shakes, Gregory Alan Isakov and Guster. The festival also featured Terry on their 2015 NoiseTrade Mixtape.  Terry's music was also recently included on Birdstone Records' (out of Germany) "Independent Celebration, Vol. 1" accompanied by songs from Ben Taylor, Rachael Yamagata and Grant-Lee Phillips. 
 
Terry's star is on the rise, and it's no surprise. Through the course of four releases, The Runner (2009), Empty Seat On a Plane (2012), Stay Here With Me (2013), and The Calm & The Storm (2015), Terry draws from a wellspring of emotional depth and combines it with performance skills honed over hundreds of shows and hundreds of thousands of miles on the road. The result is a palette ranging from poetic ballads to uptempo, rootsy pieces, always beautifully crafted and displaying sweet wistfulness and heartache. This is music that explores the contrast of light and dark, with a core that is timeless and authentic. Jesse Terry's superlative new EP, The Calm & The Storm, captures both the intimacy of his live performances and his thoughtful compositional style, with choice layers of harmonies and instrumentation that evoke the landscapes and faces of the road, the trials and the joys of a traveling troubadour. 
 
Jesse Terry's "melodies ring with instant accessibility and a clear connection, conveying a brilliance and clarity that most veteran artists still strive for" (No Depression).  A gentle warmth runs through Terry’s voice, and his lyrics, while grounded in gritty wisdom acquired through years on the road, offer up hope for a kinder tomorrow. Arranged around acoustic guitar and subtly augmented by strings, piano, percussion and achingly beautiful harmonies, Terry's music is elegantly spare, capturing the eternal tug-of-war between head and heart, the pull of the road and the longing for return.

Terry has an undeniable talent for connecting with his audience - to share stories that are personal, yet utterly relatable – to create a sense of home, even among the strangers he meets on the road. And that is the gift of Terry’s music -- in a song, he gives us a promise of a place to call our own.
