Eric Algae is a soulful singer and guitar player whose musical experience and influence knows no borders. As a performer, playing 100's of shows a year, he seeks to convey the raw emotion of each song to the audience. As an entertainer, he’s a consummate showman, with an easy rapport and an engagingly diverse repertoire.

With his blues-man hat and sunglasses. His guitar named “Blondie” strapped over his shoulder, this is good time blues played with a ton of soul. His band is always stocked with top shelf talent, their hip but rough around the edges look tells you a story even before they play a note. Robert doesn’t so much play the guitar, he masters it. Flying up and down the neck in a blur of hands, and playing solos with razor sharpness, he gives off energy that rockets from the stage. Robert’s voice is distinctive and he puts everything into his singing. The members of his band are true professionals, hardened by years of paying they’re dues. Not even stopping between tunes they lay down one groove after another, you can’t help but appreciate the level of passion they pump into every note. Roberts presence takes over the stage and he always leaves his audiences with a unforgettable show! So get your next party or event started with Robert Allen Jr. and you'll be glad that you did!

Funhouse plays high energy, danceable covers of 80s tunes, along with a few 70s & 90s songs sprinkled in.

JJ was born and raised in a small town tucked away in the Allegheny Plateau in Elk County, Pennnsylvania. He grew up with a deep love for the outdoors, dirt track racing, and music. After getting his first guitar at the age of 14, he started learning to play, but spent most of his time in the woods, in a garage working on old cars and trucks, or at a race track with his Dad.
It wasn't until after he had gone to college, moved to Virginia to pursue a job in construction management, and an eventual layoff that the desire to do more musically really started to take hold.
JJ moved to Wisconsin in the search for a new job and started working in construction again. With the desire to perform still burning inside of him, Stoney LaRue pulled him on stage and asked him to play a song one night. It was like throwing a match into a bucket of gasoline and JJ started playing his own gigs right away.
It's been more than 5 years since that night and JJ has been performing ever since. He moved to Nashville, TN in 2011 to follow his dream and has spent time as a lead singer and acoustic guitar player in the bands BarKeep and The Lost Maples. JJ is now concentrating on writing and recording his solo album and is in the process of putting a new band together to share his songs and stories with all of you. Stay tuned for more!

Jonny T-Bird & the MPs belt out a soulful mix of blues and originality. The MPs stands for MARINATED PUPPETS, which was the name of a band that a few of itsmembers were a part of before they gave birth to this Milwaukee combo. The band’s founding members met while they were studying music at Milwaukee Area Technical College (MATC). Since 2009, their performances included some of southeastern Wisconsin's well-known venues and festivals (Summerfest, State Fair, Miramar Theatre, Cactus Club, Up & Under, The Domes, etc.). With three albums and a WAMI nomination, these guys will never disappoint if you get the chance to hear them live!

Comprised of 4 veteran performer vocalists, among them Wisconsin Association of Music Industry (WAMI) Hall of Fame inductees, The Grimm Brothers featuring Char light up dance floors and concert stages wherever they appear. Repeat visitors to venues like Wisconsin State Fair, Summerfest the Bradley Center and Potowatomi Casino, The Grimm Brothers consistently attract appreciative audiences and keep the cash registers ringing with drink orders from thirsty patrons.

Their music and vocal harmonies consist of an audience pleasing blend of both originals and tributes to some of today and yesterday's greatest artists. During a typical Grimm Brothers show, you'll see Steve Grimm – award winning songwriter and founder of Milwaukee's Bad Boy, on lead guitar and vocals, blending rock, funk and blues in his unique and energy charged delivery of original and covers. Char Fiore follows with the soaring lead vocals and dynamic show she's lent to Speakeasy and the US Project. They are joined by Craig Evans' dynamic lead vocal and the infectious bass grooves he's brought to The Rockerfellers, Bad Boy and Cimmeron. Gary Koehler's percussion propels the group as it has during his years with Rebel Grace, Sky Harbor Band and Greg Koch and the Tone Controls

The Verdict takes its name from the background of the musicians who make up the band...two are lawyers by day, and one is married to a lawyer. We like to tell people we do weddings, festivals, bars, and jury trials!
