THAD COCKRELL, CAMERON MARION and SETH HALL October 24, 2008

"From the first measure, you hear the unmistakable sound of the pure and uncompromised spirit of an artist who just wants to sing what’s in his heart. And it rocks you right down to your soul..."--Puremusic.com

V21 Productions is proud to present THAD COCKRELL, live on Friday, October 24. Thad hails from the old school of country music the days before Nashville went pop, and will be performing an acoustic set at V21.

"Cockrell’s gotta be the guy who found that perfect pop sensibility Paul Simon seems to have lost somewhere along the way." - The Tennessean

Cameron Marion is the 2008 Carolina Music Awards Female Country Artist of the Year. In October of 2005, Cameron picked up and moved from her hometown in NC to Orlando, Florida, after auditioning and making one of three spots in an all-girl pop/urban trio so named TKO (Total Knock Outs), which then transplanted her to Hollywood, CA. TKO was headed up by Angel Carter (reality star on the E! Channel's "House of Carters", and sister to Backstreet Boy, Nick and brother, Aaron Carter), but after release of a single in 2007, a hiatus from the group led to Cameron returning to the south to pursue her solo project where her roots lie in country fused music.

Seth Hall records under the moniker The Middle Eight. Since childhood, music has been a constant part of Seth's life. He journeyed from his hometown of Raleigh, North Carolina to Athens, Georgia, forming 70's power pop band The Modfathers (with fellow North Carolinian Douglas Porter Jr. ). After 5 years of recording and touring with The Modfathers and a number of other bands (Pacific UV, The Sunshine Fix, Fabulous Bird, Great Lakes), he journeyed north to New York City where he spent a year writing and performing. He's back in Raleigh now, and ready to take the stage at V21.
