The following are the biographies of the artists, courtesy of the Palace Theatre:
Karen Zimmer, a Norwalk singer/songwriter, blends elements of folk, blues and country with a hint of pop to create her unique sound. Her first original song, "My Angel", was based on an old poem she had written years earlier. She is currently working on an album at the Factory Underground Studios in Norwalk
Singer/songwriter/violinist Ada Pasternak was born in Moscow and immigrated to the U.S. at the age of six. Ada was classically trained on the violin, winning numerous competitions and awards. In 2007 Ada was awarded the Presidential Scholarship to Berklee College of Music. It was there, after experiencing her first love and heartbreak, that Ada discovered her ability and passion for singing and writing songs. Currently hailing from Connecticut, Canyon is a 28- year-old vocal powerhouse. She is known by those that have seen her perform to be a captivating singer/songwriter with haunting and heart-wrenchingly honest songs. Performing with just an acoustic guitar, her catchy vocal melodies will immediately grab your attention while the intimate lyrics and stories she tells will keep your ears guessing. Known for performing with an intensely raw passion and conviction, her sound will cut you deep and hit a nerve. Joe Robinson plays guitar like Ali boxed, like Einstein knew theoretical physics and like Hitchcock made movies. The gifted young virtuoso and 2008 winner of Australia’s Got Talent has defined himself as a budding pop-world visionary, deftly walking a tightrope between the instrumental music that put him in the spotlight and a unique fusion of vocally based rock, blues, jazz, country and R&B that’s entirely his own.
