NICK FRESH

"Armed with an indelible love and encyclopedic knowledge of music, NickFRESH
has a way with audiences exciting them with his incredible mixing and
entertainment skills! Born and raised in Jacksonville, Nick's love for music
was cultivated at a very early age as he was always surrounded by all kinds
of music. It wasn't until he was four that he was in classical training and
music theory for piano and by eight, he was already mixing with two
turntables for family and friends. Nick picked up the trumpet and accordion
as he thinks of himself as a 'casual autodidact.' As the years progressed,
Nick also played in a few local rock bands and started work at Clear Channel
(his first job) as an on-air radio personality throughout high school and
college. It was during this time that Nick created SoulTrainFans, a fan
community that was responsible for reuniting former dancers of the show and
putting vintage episodes of the iconic television show back on the air
(amongst other things). STF is still is online to this day and Nick
considers that one of his greatest achievements thus far.

NickFRESH now performs his various musical skills in and out of town. Very

passionate about the various styles and sounds of music he showcases, he has
been known to actually get into the crowd with partygoers and dance in
spurts during his live mixes - just one of the characteristics of a
NickFRESH party you definitely should not miss."

JEANECE LYLES

Jeanece Lyles, 24, entered this plane as an artistic visionary. Inspired by the teachings of life and the human experience in its various layers, Lyles expresses her interpretations of life and humanity through abstract visual art and writing. As a youth, Lyles began using visual art and writing as an alternate Universe to relieve stress and to make sense of life when it seemed irrational. As an adult, Lyles uses her gifts to subjectively express Self while simultaneously connecting with others in a positive way, exploring the subjects of introspection and human interaction amongst others.

Lyles has exhibited in several shows locally including New Beginnings at the Women's Center of Jacksonville (2010), Through Our Eyes at the Ritz Theatre and Museum (2008 and 2009) and the annual Student Holiday Show at FCCJ’s Kent Campus (2005). She has also judged Congresswoman Corrine Brown’s annual Congressional Art Contest for high school students for two consecutive years (2008 and 2009).

Lyles graduated Magna Cum Laude from the University of North Florida in 2008, receiving a B.A. in English with a philosophy minor.

LEE MILLER

"I was born drawing & creating my own books. When I was 10, I was shown the paintings of my sister's boyfriend's brother (but not his brother's girlfriend's roommate). His name was John Nickle. He went on to do kid's books like The Ant Bully. He inspired me to start painting with his fantasy landscapes & is still one of my favorite modern surrealists. My sister & I particularly liked what we called "Flamenters", little carrot men that always appeared in John's stuff. Those fascinated me. Throughout middle school & highschool I rarely got allowances, I supplemented my income drawing things for other kids. Pictures of boy bands, comics, caricatures of teachers, whatever anyone wanted. I was a peddler, every school's black-market nightmare. It got me in trouble more than once, but a dollar a picture is hard to resist. As a teen, I took painting lessons from an elderly German lady who taught me technique. We would spend time after lessons talking...why did Pollock's paintings look like he was drunk (Answer: "He vas!"), what was living in WWII Germany like ("It vas crazee, like Heetler"). After high school I went to Waycross Junior College for my Liberal Arts AA & apprenticed under Jerry Luke, a superb artist & a great mentor. From him I learned I can do whatever the hell I want. Machine guns and butterflies. These are the people who have influenced me more than anyone, the symbiosis that youth makes possible. My work is often dark, but I'm not humorless. My output tends to be surrealist, dadaist, abstract, because this has been the nature of my life. There are mistakes in life, but as Bob Ross says, there are no mistakes in art. Things change, but this has always been a constant. It never leaves. It's consistent. More consistent than my bios."

TUFFY

Jacksonville Florida's Tuffy has been slowly building momentum and fans over the past couple years and based on recent performances, looks poised to continue expanding their popularity. Formed by principal song writers Sean Madgett and Howie Winkler, Tuffy started as a 2 piece recording project for the long time friends who recorded low-fi, layering vocals and multiple instruments. Upon playing some well received shows in and around Jacksonville, the 2 piece decided to fill out the live sound with a full band. They got some friends to help out and they've been going strong for the last couple years building a loyal fanbase in the process. Tuffy's songs sound chaotic yet melodic with layered harmonies and just enough space between the notes. They are often compared to bands ranging from Pavement, to Sonic Youth, to My Morning Jacket, but they have a sound all their own. The current line up of five friends includes Winkler and Madgett on vocals and guitar, local comedian Joel Land on bass, Earol Aguilar and his spaced out guitars, and Spencer Romani rounding up the line up on drums. They have released sporadic D.I.Y. albums and tried to make sure the people who wanted copies of the songs were able to get them, but the best way to experience Tuffy is to see a live show. After sharing the stage with such artists as, Phosphorescent, Black Kids, Tracy Shedd, Captured by Robots, The One AM Radio, Islands, and The Trachtenburg Family Slideshow Players, the band joined forces with local Jacksonville DIY upstarts Infintesmal Records. The band is currently putting the finishing touches on their summer 2010 and is putting together an east coast tour to support the release.
