Raison d'etre
Raison d’etre (Thomas Burks & Stephen Pavlik) has been making music together for over a year. They play various musical styles, all based on their combined history.

Stephen was born and raised in Pittsburgh, Pa., and has been influenced by just about every musical genre, including classical and jazz. Together, they have a very eclectic portfolio of music from other artists and their compositions.

Tim Brady
Tim Brady is a singer/songwriter from the Monterey Bay area and leader of the locally award winning Santa Cruz band Cement Ship. The acoustic guitar style, singing tone and original songs from Tim seem to fit a wide array of crowds and genres, but maintains a natural and stripped down approach for the sound. Honest and raw, sweet and smoky, dynamic like the sea. The band’s namesake is taken from local landmark the SS Palo Alto, and the music has been described as ‘Americana Soul’ or ‘Beach Folk’.

Rory Lynch
Rory Lynch is a singer/songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and composer in Santa Cruz, CA. He migrated to the West Coast after a stint in NYC, headlining shows at venues like The Bitter End and Pianos.
