Amy Kucharik is a singer-songwriter based in Somerville, MA known for juxtaposing sweet ukulele sounds and pithy, clever lyrics, delivered with a voice and style that recalls early jazz and blues performers.

Ryan Alvanos is a poet by training, phrase-smith by trade, songwriter by passion, busker by calling, and whim-blown vagabond by good fortune. He's trotted the globe toting instruments and spilling ink on his ever changing here and now. Place after place, he peruses the lines of his pocket-sized Moleskines and the under-thumbed pages of the Western songbook for tunes that fit each of his impromptu stages from Boston's street corners to Hyderabad's Hindi-dinned nightspots.

Cara Domings is a young classically trained musicians who is no stranger to the Lizard Lounge Open Mic Challenge.

Chris Hutchinson-Jones is a member of the band Dressing For Debuntants known for their own loose hybrid of folk and blues; digging a ditch somewhere near Tom Waits, Bob Dylan, the Band, and an Alan Lomax field recording.

Greg Klyma, certainly no stranger to The Lizard Lounge or its sister club Toad, is an old-school troubadour. His enduring themes, articulate and amusing stories, and populist ideals make him one of those rare young artists who is carrying the torch of Woody and Ramblin' Jack. He rolls in off the road, pulls out a guitar, and proceeds to take us back to the basics: family, love, gratitude, laughter. It's the timeless art of the true troubadour, keeping alive the American folk tradition.
