ANNOUNCING
2010's Featured Unplugged Singer/Songwriters
         
JON VEZNER
Grammy award winner, creator of Unplugged

“Grammy award-winning songwriter Jon Vezner is a tunesmith of rare sensitivity and dry wit. His gift is in speaking to these ordinary things which connect us to one another.” - Mary Chapin-Carpenter

CHERYL WHEELER
"Strong poetry, complex melodies, clever wit."
- Sing out! Magazine

From her albums you can tell that she is a gifted songwriter with a beautiful voice. From other people’s comments about her you can learn that she is a natural story teller with a fantastic sense of humor. But until you see her in person, you never really believe what you’ve been told about her.

PAT ALGER
#1 songs include "Unanswered Prayers" & "The Thunder Rolls"

A veteran of the Nashville songwriter scene, Pat has earned the title as president of The Nashville Songwriters Association International and nominee to Nashville’s Songwriter’s Hall of Fame.
