About Lady=0D=0A=
=0D=0A=
Achingly sweet yet equally powerful, the voice of Nicole Wray – a.k.a. Lady – is one of the touchstones of contemporary pop and club music. Discovered at age 17 by Missy Elliot, Lady’s first-ever single, “Make it Hot,” went gold. After more collaborations with Missy, Cam’ron, Kid Cudi, and the Black Keys, Lady had begun to transform from a teenager to a musically sophisticated performer and songwriter. Now in her mid 20s, Lady has just recorded Lady, a dance-friendly combination of a Memphis-style soul groove with hip-hop beats and the slinky rhythms of modern R&B. Touring widely in support of her new CD, Lady has become a powerful neosoul vocal sensation. Her band consists of Marcaelis Sanders bass, Stanley Collins guitar, John Key keyboard, Remey Williams drums, and Teeya Skipper background vocals. =0D=0A=

About David Ward=0D=0A=
=0D=0A=
One of the hottest new stars in the world of electronica is Vancouver’s David Ward, whose recent CD Golden Future Time is a melding of electro, art-rock, disco, funk, prog rock, and even some R&B – pure genius! His voice is reminiscent of Jeff Buckley crossed with Stevie Wonder. There’s a smooth-as-silk quality to Ward’s enchanting musical universe, which is made up of ambient pulses, stately synth washes, and a soundscape similar to that of classic Pink Floyd … with even a hint or two of Andrew Lloyd Webber. With songs whose themes are inspired by George Orwell as much as Quentin Tarantino, Ward is a unique and visionary artist who is otherworldly, maturely eccentric, daringly different, and boldly imaginative.=0D=0A=
