An Evening with the Sarkissian's
Kevin Sarkissian started playing guitar and writing music in his teenage years. He was heavily influenced by the songs of Bob Dylan, Paul Simon and The Beatles. Kevin compares writing a song to taking a picture. Some people use a camera to capture a special moment in their lives, he writes a song. To date he has written over 100 songs - some serious, some humorous - yet always from the heart.
They say as we grow in life, we often acquire traits from those who nurture us along the way.  32 year old singer-song writer Dan Sarkissian embodies this theory, proving one's musical journey can be greatly enhanced when one's upbringing bleeds musical synergy.  A veteran to the stage, Sarkissian has been performing for nearly half his life.  Born into a real world Partridge family, he combines his folk upbringing with youthful exuberance and a soulful vibe to consume and captivate audiences throughout the tri-state area.

Bogey Phillips
The four members of Bogey Phillips met while working as commercial fishermen on the same expedition on an ocean vessel somewhere in the Mid Atlantic.

Their band would play folk standards of Ireland and America, Acoustic Rock Music, and original compositions. One especially dreary morning these dreams became a reality. George, Brad, Archie, and Phil decided to stage a mutiny by jumping ship and sailing on a small lifeboat together to the shores of America. The lifeboat landed in the great city of Philadelphia, and Bogey Phillips together came ashore and brought their music to the people of the city.
