12 p.m. - Jess Sides
Jess is an extraordinary singer/songwriter. Uplifting, inspired, and from the heart. This is what life and music is all about for Jess."My original music is about staying up and finding love (especially self-love) while coping with the paradox of living a meaningful life. It is a mixture of a lot of influences: R&B, Soul, Rock, Folk, and Pop, and Classical. Every song is new, fresh, and exciting."

2 p.m. - Sean O'Donnell
Seán O’Donnell, a Pittsburgh-area native, started playing the bagpipes at age 7, and his obsession with music spread from there. After learning his first guitar chords from his father, he began spending unhealthy amounts of time making layered, two-track recordings on his parents’ multi-deck cassette player.Today, his original recordings combine a DIY ethic and influences spanning decades and genres, but can be vaguely pinned down in the psych-folk vein. In his live performances, Seán trades in whistles and bells for passionate vocals and a distortion pedal. Imagine the Clancy Brothers covering the Violent Femmes, and you’ll start to get the picture.
