“‘Singer/songwriter’ is an adequate description of Caroline Aiken, but it doesn’t tell you what you really need to know. It doesn’t even hint at the unseen work, thought, vision, organization and management she puts into every performance. It doesn’t tell you that if she brings along a band, it’s going to be an enthusiastic but disciplined unit that’s committed to the total musical experience. And it doesn’t tell you that Caroline is an Artist with a capital A, whose seemingly effortless songs form a direct link from one soul to another. During the years I hosted “It’s Friday!” it was my honor to present performances by Caroline at least ten times, and I never tired of basking in the glow of her work.” – Robb Holmes, UGA Radio show: IT’S FRIDAY

Noted for her expressiveness and versatility, has performed widely as a solo artist creating richly layered musical tapestries with a looping pedal, but also as a founding member of acoustic trio, Trillian Green, and as an accompanist to hundreds of bands, orchestras, musical theaters, and singer-songwriters, both live and recorded.
Liz Melendez:
Considered by many to be one of the top lead guitarists in the country, her live performances demonstrate her versatility, often paying homage to her influences as a highlight to her own clearly defined lead guitar and vocal style.
Her guitar playing has been compared to everyone from Carlos Santana to Stevie Ray Vaughan and her voice has been compared to everyone from Bonnie Raitt to Janis Joplin.
Liz currently has 3 album releases to her credit, showcasing her talents as a songwriter, arranger, and producer. Born and raised in the South Valley of Albuquerque, New Mexico, Liz currently resides in Atlanta, and tours regularly with Georgia music icon Caroline Aiken.
