Plectrum Entertainment Presents
JVD & the Backporch Smokers (11)
Born out of one lustful November night between a bottle of Jack Daniels and a pack of Camels, JVD and the Backporch Smokers
began their mission of
providing raw, honest rock and roll to a thirsty Boston music scene in
2009. They forsake technicality and perfection for tenacity and passion,
providing a live show that provokes bodies to move and hearts to ache.

Kevin
Blaine's debut record, Reasons to Try Again, is both scrapbook and pool
party. He invites you to experience honest and heartfelt musings about
love, home, and faith in songs infused with energy and life. Kevin's
music stands out for its engaging melodies, eclectic instrumentation,
and honest lyrics that pair struggle with hopeful optimism. His live
performances feature an artist whose contagious energy invites audiences
to laugh, sing along, and make a few memories along the way.
Brian Foye
A young, inspiring acoustic guitar player, Brian Foye has released his
first independent CD titled ‘Rough Draft.’ Originally from the small
town of Lowell, Massachusetts, near Boston, Brian is here in Washington
studying creative writing. In his music, Brian sticks to the simple
essentials of music: a voice, an instrument, and writing from the heart.
His lyrics, demonstrated in such songs as ‘Lake Side Night’ and ‘The
Storm’ are songs about living in the now, building off the past, and
dreaming of the future, all encompassed around the theme of love. You
can check out his music at

Steph Barrak
S
Steph Barrak is an independent singer/songwriter based out of Boston,
MA. Her songs are melodically and lyrically driven, often incorporating
elements of folk, country, and pop. Recently, Steph teamed up with local
record producer,
Mike Davidson,
and spent the last two years recording her debut album, Words To Break
Your Heart. She plans to release the album in early 2013.
Steph’s urge to write began at a young age and she often cites
Freddie Mercury of Queen as her biggest inspiration. She began
performing live at college open mics in 2006 and very quickly started
headlining shows of her own. Since then, Steph has played over 50 shows
at several notable venues, including The Knitting Factory in NYC, and
has shared the stage with acts like Jenny Owen Youngs. Steph’s voice has
often been compared to that of Suzanne Vega’s and her sound can be
described as indie rock meets folk-pop.
