Tim Brantley W/ Jess Godwin

When describing Brantley's blend of piano and acoustic rock, adjectives like familiar, comforting and honest immediately come to mind. The overall sound resembles a Pete Yorn-meets-Keane sort of style. The music blends subtle hints of pop with Brit-rock stylings of bands like Coldplay and Travis. Twelve tracks of pure brilliance comprise Brantley's first full-length album Bon Voyage, a sort of send-off to his old self and old life..." - Leah Weinberg (reporter for the Flagpole) Singer/Songwriter Jess Godwin earned her performing chops in the Chicago theatre scene. In the spring of 2008, she ended her 4 year career to pursue her true passion. She is an standout vocalist in several genres - from pop to jazz to musical theatre to classical, but her heart gravitates most towards r and b and soul. She attacks the stage (and the piano) with a ferocity that commands an audience to listen. When she is not performing, she can be found helping students find their own voice as a private coach.
