Annie Wenz

…”a poet on the road, blending in with the people of different lands from South America to Ireland. Annie has stayed a spell, embraced the people, understood their plight, shared songs and enriched herself as much as her new found friends”
And now… Annie is celebrating the release of her fifth independent recording “Winds of the World”, an instrumental “magical multi-cultural musical journey”, featuring indigenous flutes from around the world! (AND now being used by yoga, massage & wellness practitioners internationally!!!)
a multi-instrumentalist with a love for American & world roots music, Annie is known for her unique way of blending textures & funky instrumentation. She accompanies herself (and others) on guitar, percussion instruments from all over the world, Native American & indigenous flutes, & piano. Her music has been compared to Joni Mitchell, Richard Thompson & N.Carlos Nakai.


JOHNNY MCKENZIE

Johnny Mckenzie is a poet and singer/songwriter with a long and strong track record. His latest CD, Traveler Of The Wind, exemplifies the maturity of a writer who has the capability to write Folk, Rock, Jazz, Blues, Gospel, Pop and Country, & to blend the boundaries between them. Johnny began his career as a staff writer for Capricorn Records in Macon Ga.  McKenzie then moved to Key West where he played the same rooms & shared song writing with Jimmy Buffet in the days before Margaritaville. It was in Key West he got his nickname ROCKADAY, and evolved his unique stylistic approach to harp playing which one reviewer dubbed "Florida harmonica." His harps are an integral part of his current stage show, which features soulful vocals supported by clean and intricate guitar work on his Gibson acoustics and Fender Strat.
