Kiti Gartner & the Drifting Valentines is a band out of Washington DC who play western swing, rockabilly, old country and some jump blues.

Kiti Gartner (vocals and rhythm guitar), Zachary Sweeney (lead guitar), Steve Wolf (upright bass), Brian Alpert (drums).
The OCEAN Celtic Quartet (Jennifer Cutting on button accordion & keyboard, Christine Noyes on vocals, & guitars, Sean Heely on fiddle, voice, and harp, and Steve Winick on vocals and percussion) play music packed with pure pan-Celtic pizzazz, putting their unique spin on traditional songs and Cutting’s original compositions, from soaring ballads and stirring sea chanteys to blazing fiddle and accordion tunes.

Pinot & Augustine
Pinot & Augustine
A sure-fire crowd-pleaser, Pinot & Augustine is a classic, family-friendly clown duo inspired by the golden age of circus. Pinot is the authoritarian clown in fancy clothes and white cone hat. Augustine is the appealing red-nosed bumbler who punctures his pomposity. Their show bubbles over with physical comedy, virtuosity and musical surprises from the sublime to the ridiculous: from lyrical melodies on a musical saw to pratfalls and a whoopee cushion.
The show is primarily physical comedy, but the minimal text is nevertheless bilingual: Pinot speaks French and Augustine speaks English.
