Richard Sleigh
Richard Sleigh has been exploring the harmonica from the inside out for over 30 years. He has performed with Taj Mahal, Maria Muldaur, Bo Diddley, Susan Werner, Dennis Gruenling, and many others. His studio work includes award winning films, TV, radio, and theatre soundtracks. As a soloist, he combines his fluid and highly developed rack playing with soulful vocals, guitar, and intricate solo harp flights. Richard’s music is American roots - ranging from rural and urban blues, fiddle tunes, swing, country, gospel, to early rock and roll. He has three solo releases - Steppin Out, The Joliet Session, and his most recent collection titled Celtic Instrumentals.
Kris Kehr
Kris Kehr started understanding the power of music right around the age of 4 when he heard ‘Help’ by the Beatles on the radio and it made him sad. When he was 11 he concluded that he could play guitar and has been making music ever since.
Kehr began Woobie Cat Records to oversee the release of his albums and continues to write and record as well as produce his weekly internet radio program “Black Mountain Underground.”
Andy Tolins
Andy Tolins is an award-winning guitarist, songwriter, and singer. His repertoire includes bluegrass, celtic, blues, rock & roll, and swing. Tolins sings and arranges his own and traditional fiddle songs, blues, and other roots-oriented music. His guitar technique has earned him a reputation as a fine soloist. Tolins plays guitar, national steel, mandolin, and dobro.
J.R. Mangan
Twenty-one years after he first settled in State College, J.R. Mangan is now a full-time local musician.
“When I got out of college, I thought, I’ll stay here for a year,” Mangan said. “But I never left.”
After years of performing in the area, Mangan has become such a part of the Penn State experience for some that the band has been invited to play at numerous alumni weddings in cases where couples have actually met at his shows.
