Former members of Pearl Harbor And The Explosions, James Cotton, Steve Miller, The Dils, The George Porter All Stars, The Billy Nayer Show, just to name a few, the trio, when left to their own devices present an eclectic melange of original and cover songs that could be the soundtrack to a spy surf movie from the 60'S.

The Tum-Tum Trio
Featuring Tippy Canoe, Uni & her Ukelele and Mikie Lee Prasad. Unique solo sets culminating in a round-robin style cross pollination of all three artists bouncing songs, instruments and vocals off of each other. Each show is one-of-a-kind musical alchemy.
Tippy Canoe: Old-timey pop, rollicking rootsy country and jazz to dark latin sensuality and everything in-between.
Uni & her Ukelele: The neo-vintage, pop raconteur/chanteuse. Ding!
Mikie Lee Prasad: Acoustic guitar and vocal based Americana/Roots music.

Singer Songwriter Showcase
Hosted by and including Paul Manousos. "Singer-songwriter Paul Manousos plays piano and guitar, writes hooky, classic rock-influenced songs, and has a strong and listenable singing voice to top it all off. His latest CD, Common Thread, goes down smooth, like an undiscovered Van Morrison/Beatles album and is impressive from the first spin."
