Check out a little bit about our guests:

World traveling singer/songwriter over the past decade, Luke's patience and persistence as a songwriter finally opened up doors he had spent years trying to knock down. His blend of Americana/Country/Folk wrapped in a singer/songwriter blanket has developed from writing hundreds of songs, and has propelled him to work with the greats that have brought us Coldplay and John Mayer. Will Luke be next? Luke also has a passion for incorporating philanthropy with the arts and has partnered up with the Mental Health Alliance to write their engaging theme song "We're All a Little Crazy" which debuted at #42 on iTunes.

Tired of playing by everyone else's rules, Sydney Franklin shook off the chains of traditional education and dropped-out of the prestigious Berklee School of Music to pursue her dreams and artistry on her own terms. With her debut EP coming out in a few weeks (February 23rd), what advice does Sydney have for other young aspiring women in the often male-centric music industry?
