Chris Isaak's varied career has included the hit songs "Wicked Game," "Somebody's Crying," and "Baby Did A Bad Bad Thing," appearances in several motion pictures and a critically acclaimed TV series. Throughout it all, Isaak has developed an effortless brand of stylish retro-cool, fed by his abiding respect for popular music's past with personal heroes like Roy Orbison and Buck Owens. In 2009, Isaak hosts his new TV show The Chris Isaak Hour on the BIO Channel, and he also released his first new studio album in seven years, Mr. Lucky. The album shows off Isaak's stellar songwriting, smooth baritone and tender falsetto.

Kristina Train

Opener Kristina Train's vocals alternates between gentle balladeering and powerful belting, her bluesy vibrato revealing the breadth and elegance of a young Dusty Springfield—a littlle bit London, a little bit Memphis. She'll release her debut album Spilt Milk this September.
