Maleena Dominick: Maleena is a musician and singer-songwriter who began her journey with guitar and piano lessons at a young age. She has performed at prestigious venues and collaborated with notable acts through her band, "Chip and the Charge Ups." Now, she is set to release her third album, continuing to captivate audiences with her unique sound and heartfelt storytelling.
Adrian Adioetomo: Adrian Adioetomo bases his music on the Delta blues, the earliest form of the blues style. He elaborates the traditional form with his own approach to playing slide, expressing abstract feelings about his soul’s experiences and spiritual endeavors. Initially gaining national attention in his home country of Indonesia, Adrian was the first guitarist to bring the sounds of the Mississippi Delta to Southeast Asia. After he moved to the States, he brought his blues stylings to the heart of the Delta, playing the Juke Joint Festival in Clarksdale in 2023. He resides in Pittsburgh, where he plays solo and with Pittsburgh’s own darkwave-gothgrass band, Dichro.
