Tina! Janis! Aretha! Doña? That's right! There's a new one-name wonder in town! Also known as "The Boogie Woogie Woman" for her two fisted piano playing, Doña Oxford is fronting one of the hottest Rock & Roll bands of the 21st century! The word is out that when Doña sings, her vocal cool gets her audience all heated up!! It's all attitude, sultry good looks and a down and dirty beat that makes it happen when Doña (pronounced doan-ya) hits the stage!

Of English, Dutch, and German descent, Doña is the offspring of a trumpet playing Episcopal Priest father and a cabaret singer mom (her best pal). Born on June 2, this Gemini is a seasoned performer. She started playing piano at age five, on a one octave toy piano. She took lessons at school without her parents knowledge. By age 6 it was apparent that Doña was serious. Her mother bought her an upright Baldwin piano - her first real piano, and by 7 she was giving concerts at school.

Along the way, Doña took center stage with another talent - singing. Doña strengthened her pipes and learned her stage savvy with years of theatrical work; both regionally and Off-Broadway. With her theatrical interest, she went to New York City to study Drama at NYU, Tisch School of the Arts. But it was her lust for Blues and Rock & Roll that inspired Doña to leave the theater business and set out for the New York Nightclub Scene!

Info
MARCIA BALL – PEACE LOVE & BBQ A sensational, saucy singer and superb pianist...where Texas stomp-rock and Louisiana blues-swamp meet --USA Today “An irresistible, celebratory blend of rollicking, two-fisted New Orleans piano, Louisiana Swamp rock and smoldering Texas blues from a compelling storyteller.” --Boston Globe The simple mention of a Louisiana or Texas roadhouse conjures up images of a crowded dancehall filled wall-to-wall with rabid music fans rocking to a hotter-than-hot band playing a smoldering blend of swampy R&B, jumping blues and heart-wrenching ballads. Pianist/vocalist/songwriter Marcia Ball brings that spirit to every concert she plays and every song she records. Her music is mixed with equal parts simmering soul fervor and two-fisted piano pounding. Between her deeply emotive vocals and her incisive, often poignant songwriting, Ball is in a class by herself. Her groove-laden New Orleans R&B and driving Gulf Coast blues have made her a one-of-a-kind favorite of music fans all over the world. The Boston Herald says, “Piano pounding Marcia Ball plays masterful, red hot tracks from the Texas-Louisiana border. Her voice can break your heart with a ballad or break your back with a rocker.”

Bio:
A four time Asbury Music Award Nominee and a New Jersey native, 23 year old Justina Carubia has been playing guitar and writing her own songs since she was 18.  With the influences of classic and folk rock, Justina writes from personal experience and fictional stories.  She pens all her own tunes and delivers from the heart with her soft , yet soulful rock vocal approach.

In May of 2005 Justina released her five song, fully produced debut EP titled "Break of Day", and in December her single "Believe" which she recorded for the Lainie's Angels Foundation to raise charity for kids with cancer and blood disorders.  She recently recorded her long awaited follow-up EP "Last One Standing" which she co-produced.  A five song collection, "Last One Standing" contains more mature lyrics and is creatively produced.  Influences include The Beatles, Janis Joplin, Eric Clapton, Fleetwood Mac, Pat Benatar, Jewel, Fiona Apple, Sheryl Crow, and Michelle Branch.

"Justina's got the talent and the heart to go to the top.  This apparent ingenue has recently released "Break of Day", a startlingly mature sample of her virtuosity." -Cafe Improv

"Just a week after releasing her first 5-song EP titled "Break of Day", it has been receiving rave reviews.  There is a definite buzz accompanying this release, so come out and catch a rising star!" -The Indigo Coffeehouse

"Justina is a phenomenal talent, since her debut performance here, we knew we had witnessed something special.  She has wonderful lyrics that she transforms into great harmonious songs.  Justina has the making of star; we consider her as one of the sensational artists who is 'under the radar'." -Espresso Joe's

"Justina has pipes and attitude.  She rocks some nice back rhythm on acoustic guitar when the band is in full swing, and is on target in the stripped down guitar and vocal moments.  Good dynamics, focused band...if there were ever any doubts as to her ability to rock, they have been put to rest!"  -Rob Jones, The Court Tav
