#frff Emerging Artists Preview, Part Two
So, I am rushing out the door, but before I head out, I’m saving a draft of part two of my review of the emerging artists. This will probably end up simply as is, or with minor editing. With that, I don’t have a lot of notes on many of the musicians other than links and a few random thoughts.
Marie Moreshead
One Woman’s Meat: If E.B. White were a twenty something singer songwriter from Maine in the beginning of the twenty-first century, I suspect he would have turned out a bit like Marie Moreshead (@mariemoreshead, EPK).
John Wort Hannam
John Wort Hannam (EPK), has a long list of festival appearances and awards and is frequently compared favorably to Gordon Lightfoot. I like Gordon Lightfoot a lot and it isn’t a surprise that I really like John Wort Hannam’s music as well.
Vanessa Torres
Vanessa Torres (EPK). I have her music on my cellphone and hope to listen to some of it on the drive up.

Barnaby Bright

This duo is my favorite of the ones I’ve listened to ahead of time. The song Gravity is especially touching. Nathan dedicated it to his father who passed away from AIDS and seeks to honor the struggle of everyone struggling with this tragic disease.
