Celebrating 24 Years of touring, the Voices of Lee from Lee University, Cleveland, TN, have captivated audiences worldwide.  Directed by Danny Murray, this fifteen-member group is characterized by their unique variety of lush vocal harmonies. They have toured Europe with concerts at the Cathedral of Notre Dame in Paris and England’s Ely Cathedral and have been featured performers for Christmas at the White House in Washington DC. Their convention appearances have taken them from Israel to Ontario and numerous U.S. cities. They were propelled into the International Spotlight on the debut season of NBC’s Sing-Off, competition of A Cappellagroups.  Out of thousands of auditions, Voices of Lee was selected as one of eight groups to compete and was featured on four prime time NBC network episodes.  After nationwide voting, the Voices of Lee finished as second runner up in the Sing-Off. They were also voted one of the favorite groups by the Contemporary A Cappella Society of America. In 2014 the Voices of Lee were invited by the Chinese Government as featured performers in the Shang Hai International Music Festival.  Week after week, the Voices’ heartfelt music is heard in some of America’s most noted churches.

With his diverse talent and love for country music, he has been dubbed as ‘The Rednek RokStar’. Burgeis’s smooth voice, peppered with just enough twang and partnered with his masterful yet edgy guitar playing and tantalizing ivory tinkling, is what makes this ‘country-rocker’ one of the finest entertainers of his day.

Jason Lee Wilson

Scots-Irish, German, Swiss, Italian, and Cherokee…no one is more American in spirit, word or pedigree. Jason is a balladeer from the Southern highlands of North America who sings what he knows; he has stayed true to his roots, and has penned many songs romanticizing the history and tradition of his own life.

He could be described as traditional country meets folklore meets high energy rockabilly.

Daniel Lawrence Walker

Recording and touring artist, Daniel Lawrence Walker, channels roots and rhythms through a soulful voice and slide guitar ranging from bluesy swagger to subtle softness. His trademark half-slide Shubb Axys allows him to play bottleneck with a quick flick of the thumb and fingers. He keeps toes tapping during solo shows when looping his rhythm part live, and ripping the slide over the top. Walker grew up in Fort Worth, Texas and moved to Nashville in 2008.

Greg Hall

“Probably the best guitar player in comedy. Or the best comedian in guitar-playing” ~ The Tennessean

Greg Hall, guitar in hand, delights audiences nationwide with his songwriting, and humorous observations of life in America.

Based in Nashville, Greg headlines comedy clubs around the country. His entertainment career began in Texas as a singer/songwriter after winning a prestigious Kennedy Center award for ‘Outstanding Achievement in Musical Composition’. The next decade took him on a musical journey through thirty states, and Europe. He released five CD’s along the way, and shared stages with Shelby Lynne, Vern Gosdin, Jerry Jeff Walker, Eric Johnson, The Fabulous Thunderbirds, Keith Urban, Dan Seals, and others.

A near fatal car wreck took Greg out of the game for a while. Determined to get back on stage, he entered the realm of stand up comedy. Always a quick wit, he took his stage experience, songwriting chops and musicianship, and fast tracked into touring comedy clubs around the nation. Now, as a headliner, Greg spends at least twenty weeks a year performing in top comedy clubs.

Greg observes life’s mishaps with a twinkle in his eye, and hope. The result is an achingly fun, comedic musical journey sharing his hard-won, slightly skewed wisdom.
