Born ins Sac. Lives now in Seattle amongst 420 trees.

John Mackey is a composer currently based in Cambridge, Massachusetts.  He's also lived in New York, Austin, Los Angeles, and Ohio, but he prefers not to talk about Ohio.

As a frequent collaborator, John has worked with a diverse range of artists, from the Santa Clara Vanguard Drum and Bugle Corps to choreographer David Parsons, from the Alvin Ailey Dance Company to the US Olympic Synchronized Swim Team. (The team won a bronze medal in the 2004 Athens Olympics performing to Mackey's work for clarinet and percussion, "Damn.")

John has served as a Meet-The-Composer/American Symphony Orchestra League Composer In Residence with the Greater Twin Cities Youth Symphony and with the Seattle Youth Symphony Orchestra. He has been Composer In Residence at the Vail Valley Music Festival in Vail, Colorado, and in 2005, at the Cabrillo Festival of Contemporary Music.  He returns to Cabrillo this summer for  performances of his trombone concerto, "Harvest," conducted by Marin Alsop, with trombonist Joseph Alessi of the New York Philharmonic.

John holds degrees from The Juilliard School and The Cleveland Institute of Music, where he studied with John Corigliano and Donald Erb, respectively.

To entertain himself while procrastinating on commissions, John enjoys photography and road cycling (but not at the same time). You can hear his music and see his photography (mostly of food, and the backs of conductors’ heads) on his website: www.ostimusic.com

Conor Brace composes, orchestrates, and produces music for video games, using both live musicians and virtual instruments.  Rich orchestral fantasy, nostalgic solo piano, and everything in between!

- Mike Sion, Music Columnist, Reno Gazette Journal

“Ruby Jaye’s singing voice carries a childlike tint in a style that otherwise takes cues from the decidedly not-childlike genres of jazz and Americana.”
Janelle Bitker, Sacramento News & Review

“Her songs express a musical sensibility far beyond her years.” - Robbie Gennet, Keyboard Magazine
