Finally the Top 3 Emerging Artists from last summer's Falcon Ridge Folk Festival were announced over the weekend:

chuck e costa http://www.myspace.com/chuckecosta

the brillant inventions http://www.myspace.com/thebrilliantinventions

I thought I voted for 4 and think it may have included costa and the brillant inventions, though they sounded better live. However my top pick was Liz Longley (http://www.lizlongley.com/fr_index.cfm). I've been listening to her since:

Check her out. Either at her website above or http://www.myspace.com/lizlongley You've got to hear The Gun and the Gold! Click Music on her webpage. It's the first song in the Player. It blew me away. Part of the reason may have been because Janis was there. If you listen you'll probably understand why I had tears streaming down my cheeks. Hope Janis heard it! Also Liz sings Hallulejah next best to kd lang-It's at the bottom of the player. Took me a while to get used to her high voice but the more I hear her, the more I like!

Liz is a student at Berklee, majoring in songwriting. Graduating this year and then on to Nashville. I think Janis is teaching up there in the Spring.
