Amanda Anne Platt has an empathetic and charming wit ingrained in her songwriting. She has a knack for accessing a deep well of emotion and applying it to her story-telling, whether she is writing from her own experiences or immersing herself into the melody of emotions in another person’s life.

Austin Barrett was raised in Bristol, Tennessee, and got his start on the guitar when he was just 5 years old.  He has a masters degree in Music Business, over a decade of teaching experience and 25 years playing guitar. His most advanced styles are: Acoustic Guitar Flatpicking and Fingerstyle, Electric Guitar Soloing and Blues, Music Theory and Understanding the Science and Language of Music, and Recording Engineering where you learn to make music on your computer either with an instrument or without.  We are thrilled to bring Austin to the stage.
