SUMMARY:Geoff Achison and Kristin Markiton
DESCRIPTION:Two Great Blues Artist on One Stage! Geoff Achison has a reputation as a guitarist?s guitarist - sliding somewhere in between Eric Clapton and Stevie Ray Vaughn! Having taught himself to play in the isolation of rural Australia\, he has developed a blues/funk style all his own that can be delicate one moment and explosive the next. Unaware of how the sounds he was hearing on his limited record collection were produced\, he invented some of his own techniques - without the aid of pedals or gadgets. As a result\, watching this guy wrench sounds from his simple set-up can be something of a spectacle!\n\nPossessing a soulful voice that has evoked comparisons to Joe Cocker or Warren Haynes\, Achison is also an award winning songwriter to boot! Geoff?s live set features an infectious mix of catchy original tunes\, improvised jamming and inspired versions of blues & soul classics. He's toured regularly around the globe and won honors on 3 continents\, sharing stages and opening shows with such high calibre artists as Jorma Kaukonen & Hot Tuna\, John Mayall\, Clarence 'Gatemouth' Brown\, Hubert Sumlin\, Levon Helm and John Mayer as well as top Aussies 'Dutch' Tilders\, Phil Manning\, Jeff Lang and Tommy Emmanuel!  www.geoffachison.com \n\nKristin Markiton is the former front-woman of the international award wining blues band\, Delta Moon. She is an extremely versatile singer/songwriter/performer who was raised on Motown and folk music and fell in love with country blues after having been classically trained as a lyric coloratura. \n\nThe result is a fairly uncategorizeable voice which has been described as having "a sweetness reminiscent of Emmylou Harris"\, a "tough\, yearning\, heartland approach which recalls Melissa Etheridge" and at the same time a "slinky\, sensual voice that soars to the top of the funk". Kristin is often surrounded on both her records and her live performances by an all-star cast of the best musicians Atlanta has to offer - tonight it will be Geoff Achison!  www.kristinmarkition.com
