Russell Dickerson

Russell Dickerson has a huge heart for the live show; He claims, “When I write songs, I picture looking out to the audience and seeing their response.” Being born into a family full of music his talent and drive for a career in this industry is inevitable. In his small hometown of Union City, he attended church every Sunday, and found inspiration in the old hymns sung by the church choir. At the age of ten, Russell would uncover his love for music when he and his family moved to Nashville. But his love of music became an obsession at age sixteen--- “I got my first real hand-made acoustic guitar at the age of sixteen and even though I couldn’t play, I started a band.” Said Dickerson, “I was hooked.” Aside from the influences he received in the pews of his church, a huge influence from an early age was Garth Brooks. “I loved singing Garth, from a kid in my undies on a karaoke machine to the fourth grade talent show.” It was not only the musical aspect of Brooks that influenced him but Brooks’ live show. “His shows are like a drama, overflowing with so many emotions.” Russell hopes to portray the emotions in his songs even stronger from the stage.

Cheryl LuQuire

Southern charm, Mississippi flare, and the voice to prove it are the ingredients for the recipe that is Cheryl LuQuire. This southern belle has the playful charisma of a country sweetheart with the sheer power of a soul giant. She's one part Faith Hill with another part Aretha Franklin. Her powerful combination of country and soul sets her apart from the crowd and leaves a lasting impression on listeners.

Born and raised in the heart of Mississippi, Cheryl fell in love with music at a young age. She learned to sing from some of Motown’s greats: Aretha and Gladys Knight. Eventually she headed to Nashville where she began to channel leading ladies like Trisha Yearwood and Martina McBride.

Songs like "Nothing Good Happens After Midnight" and "Feel" showcase Cheryl’s take on modern country music with her “edge of your seat”, powerful vocals. "I have a wide variety of influences," says LuQuire. "From swampy, southern rock to soul to classic country. I they they’re all connected in what makes a song a “great song” and I think you can hear that in my songs."

Cheryl LuQuire isn’t just another pretty face in country music. This girl paints her emotions through her vocal phrasing. She is a truly gifted vocalist who demands a listener's attention.

Cheryl’s voice helps her shine, but perhaps the factor that sets her apart from so many other young artists is that she has heart to go along with her soul. She's an artist who desires to bless people with her music and a smile. Even at 22, she's a woman of deep faith who firmly believes that God has set her melody on the right path. Her story is filled with struggles, but hope, tenacity, and her faith have carried her through. "It’d be cool to be the female Bono," she says with a smile. "I love to sing, but I want this to be about so much more than that. I pray that my music will allow me to reach people, so I can share not only my story, but theirs too…that can make a difference."

And thats exactly what she's doing. Cheryl Luquire may be young, but she is certainly on her way to becoming one of the leading ladies in Country music.

Blane Howard

At the age of 3, Blane Howard stood in front of the TV with a blue and green plastic guitar and sang along with Alan Jackson's "Chasin' That Neon Rainbow." He dreamed of one day growing up to be a country singer just like Alan Jackson. Almost 20 years later, Blane is still chasing that same dream he had as a kid.

Growing up in south Arkansas, Blane Howard was highly influenced by the music that surrounded him - from the country styles of Garth Brooks, Alan Jackson, Vince Gill and Randy Travis, to the Southern Rock of Lynyrd Skynyrd and AC/DC. Today, he is heavily influenced by the styles of Josh Turner and Lady Antebellum's Charles Kelley. All of these influences have made an impact on Blane’s unique style of country, mixing the authenticity of the 90's with the contemporary edge of today.

Blane is the definition of a true southern gentleman; a man raised on strong morals and southern hospitality. His charisma and charm warms the hearts of everyone he meets, and he brings that same warmth and charm to every performance. Howard’s smooth voice and rich, warm tone will captivate an audience and leave them wanting more.
