<p>“Wonderful, colorful arrangements and warm, human sounding vocals&#8230;.top notch,” —Don Campau, DJ at No PigeonHoles Radio.&#8221;</p>
<p>Singing about faith, love and loss, San Francisco songwriter Deborah Crooks is an intimate and edgy artist whose lyric driven and soul-wise music has drawn comparison to Lucinda Williams, Jesse Sykes and The Cowboy Junkies. Widely published as an essayist and journalist, her lyrics are honed by a lifetime of writing, while her music draws on folk, rock, Americana and the blues. Her first full length CD &#8220;Adding Water to the Ashes,&#8221; (2008) garnered favorable reviews and led to her receiving a Bay Bridged Recording Grant to record at Tiny Telephone Studios. The result is the new EP “It’s All Up to You” featuring 7 new tracks that range from acoustic pop to folk-rock to blues. Deborah has also showcased at the 2006 Millennium Music Conference, the 2005 Rocker Girl Magazine Music Convention, during SXSW, at the 2007 Harmony Festival and 2009&#8217;s California Music Fest. In 2010, she also appeared as a featured speaker on purpose and creativity at both MacWorld and SXSW.</p>

—Rich Freedman, Vallejo Times-Herald</p>
<p>Possessing a wide emotional range and a storyteller&#8217;s appeal, Amber&#8217;s style has been compared to artists as varies as Stevie Nicks, Sheryle Crow, Rickie Lee Jones and Janis Joplin. Fusing folk-rock, country and blues, she released her 3rd CD, &#8216;Still Dreamin&#8217; in 2010. Two Tracks from her CD were finalists in the Third Annual Fame Games Effigy Awards presented by Tony Cowell (Simon&#8217;s older, wiser brother and head of CowellMedia) and Amber was recently featured on San Francisco&#8217;s KRON TV&#8217;s Best of the Bay. Amber has played at many events and venues, has a weekly residency at Downtown Joe&#8217;s in Napa, and has hosted a weekly music television segment on Napa Valley TV &#8220;Another Late Night Show Early.&#8221;</p>

<p>The Yes-Go&#8217;s<br />
<a href="http://www.myspace.com/theyesgos">http://www.myspace.com/theyesgos</a><br />
The Yes Go&#8217;s were started by Sophie V writing music &amp; playing songs on the guitar. In 2003, Lester Moore joined as drummer &amp; back-up vox. With the addition of Mimi on lead vocals and Barbara on bass that summer, we became &#8220;Wednesday Night&#8221;. 5 days before our 1st gig, Mimi &amp; Barbara (our Hungarian Hotties) were not allowed to stay in the U.S.A. (visa probs!) &amp; we played our 1st show as a duo called Sik Suzan. In 2004, Blue Lew (Rotton Core), joined the band on bass &amp; b.vox. We played shows off/on and had lots of fun, but we (BL. not inc.) drank too much, and we still didn&#8217;t really have an identity. Through Blue Lew&#8217;s departure in Summer 2006, it was back to a duo &amp;  the new name of The Yes Go&#8217;s fall &#8216;06 when the multi-facetd Djuna Gray became our bass player. It&#8217;s been balls to the walls ever since and The Yes Go&#8217;s love to play (alot) &amp; can be found playing with many local &amp; touring bands. We are continually amazed at the talent we see at all of S.F.&#8217;s venues. We are proud to share the bill with &amp; be awed by such killer bands. Go out and see some shows cause we support local venues and killer music as well, cheers. [myspace]</p>
