2013 Performers

God Des & She

God Des and She were first seen on the Showtime television series “The L Word” performing their provocative track “Lick It” and had a number one video on MTV LOGO for 15 weeks with their song “Love You Better”. Since then they have toured worldwide, sharing the stage with artists including Lady Gaga, Salt n’ Pepa, and SIA, and have released three albums to critical acclaim. They just released their 4th album “United States of God Des and She” in February 2013, which can be heard here: www.god-desandshe.com

Beverly McClellan

Rock ‘n’ roll is built on a foundation of great vocalists, and Beverly McClellan is quickly becoming its newest cornerstone. NBC-TV’s The Voice introduced her to the world as a singer of stunning power and range with the presence and ability to draw comparisons to Etta James, Janis Joplin, Bonnie Raitt and Melissa Etheridge, to name just a few of the great torchbearers whose legacies she evokes. Now McClellan’s debut international release Fear Nothing presents her as a true and original artist — a songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and dynamic presence with the ability, authority and desire to carve her own place in music history.

Jamie Anderson

Touring since the eighties, singer-songwriter-parking lot attendant Jamie Anderson has played her warm and witty songs in hundreds of coffeehouses, concert halls, colleges and festivals in four countries and forty seven states. She has ten recordings including her newest, Better Than Chocolate. Her music has been featured on Good Morning America, the Dr. Demento radio show, NPR’s Car Talk, and stations all over the world. Jamie loves being a musician, so she doesn’t really park cars, but her mama said she should have something to fall back on.

Jamie’s a confused folk singer who doesn’t settle in just one genre. She’s country without the big hair, bluegrass without the whiny tenor, blues without selling her soul and rock without the dirty t-shirt. She’ll show you why it’s never a good idea to dump a songwriter in “Her Problem Now” and who her greatest musical inspiration is in ”My Dad Loves to Sing”. “Beautiful” is a tender ballad about body image, “Three Bridges” is a thoughtful tune about finding strength while “Grace” is a story about two girls falling in love at church camp. Hallelujah.

Mimi Gonzalez

Mimi Gonzalez is a writer, a stand-up comic, a freelance journalist and a Michigan-raised Latina. She calls her life of constant travel “Wonder Lust.” It’s been said “she never met a stranger” and always finds a point on the human spectrum on which to alight. She’s been a morning show co-host on radio in New York, her articles have appeared in national magazines from The Advocate, to On Our Backs to a monthly column in GET-RI. She’s been around the world to entertain the troops and maintains a full annual schedule of national and international stand-up performances including colleges, Prides, Festivals and the Olivia travel company.  Touring appearances now include speaking, lecturing and comedy-centered approaches to living the integrated life of a sole-proprieter, a recession-thriver and a Spanish-surnamed woman whose greatest feat of Spanish speaking is pronouncing her own name.

Karen Williams

Karen Williams has been an out lesbian stand-up comedian for 25 years. She started in the California Bay Area in the 1980′s and performed at women’s music festivals and toured the country doing her one-woman show. She was one of the stars of Laughing Matters and her one-woman show ”I Need a Snack” was featured on Logo. Karen currently lives in the Cleveland area and teaches stand-up comedy at Cleveland State University. She is the President and CEO of HaHA Institute (International Institute of Humor and Healing.) Lesbian Life caught up with Karen where she was one of the featured performers on a recent Olivia cruise.

Diana Chittester

Imitating a four-piece band with a single acoustic guitar, Diana’s percussive attack incorporates driving bass lines while pounding out explosive rhythms and attention grabbing leads. Her unique blend of swiftfinger-picking and intricate strumming techniques combined with an array of alternate and open tunings gives Diana’s guitar a voice of its own. She accompanies her powerful instrument with an intelligent lyrical approach filled with poetic wordplay and metaphors. Not afraid to address topics taboo to society, Diana’s lyrical content examines desired and undesired sexual encounters, the politics of religion and the paternal influences over a young woman. Diana’s music has been compared to the percussive styles of Ani Difranco and Tommy Emmanuel with the lyrical edge of Alanis Morissette and Tom Waits.

Wednesday Wine

Wednesday Wine is a fun loving working Rock Band consisting of five women on a mission; to bring people together, serve our community and raise good vibrations through music, covering a mixture of original tunes and the best of those great classic rock songs we all know and love. Wednesday Wine plays classic rock originals and covers including songs by Neil Young, Tom Petty, Buffalo Springfield, The Rolling Stones, Melissia Ethridge, Joan Jett, CSNY, Creedence Clearwater Revival and more. We’re diverse in both look and style! :) Come on out and dance!!

Taryn & Linda

Taryn Valpey and Linda Chaney’s musical journey began, together in 2011. Prior to the two of them creating their musical magic, Linda, who was born and raised in Hamilton Ohio, has been singing since she was five years old. She has music in her veins and had been blessing the ears of many with her beautiful vocal renditions ever since she started to sing. For Taryn, she was born and raised in Boston, but came to Cincinnati five years ago and has quietly been teaching herself the guitar for the last five years. Her natural talent shines through as soon as she hits the first note. Since then, these two incredibly talented women have been sharing their innovative sounds of tunes new and old with many local pubs in the Greater Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky areas, and have generated quite a following. They are now in the process of creating originals.
