Forlorn Strangers is a Nashville based Americana quintet comprised of five songwriters (including the Lehigh Valley's Jesse Thompson), each having their own distinct sounds & styles that blend into one cohesive voice. Their music is rooted in family harmonies & flavored with guitars, banjo, mandolin, fiddle, dobro, & foot stomping percussion. Since 2013, Forlorn Strangers has released two EPs (While the Grass Grows and American Magic Tricks) and has toured continuously across the United States, playing for an ever-increasing group of appreciative fans. Forlorn Strangers is gearing up to release their self-titled, debut full-length album recorded at John Prine's Nashville studio, The Butcher Shoppe and produced by Grammy winner Phil Madeira.

Blue Jean was formed in late 2009 by singer/guitarist Chris Hallett and bassist Dustin Schoof after a decade of cutting their teeth on the Lehigh Valley and Pocono indie rock circuits. The pair decided to pool their collective talents into one tour de force of rock.
The band's debut album, "Goodnight Tonight," was released in 2011. Their follow-up, "Alchemy," dropped in October 2014.
