Tony Matterhorn

Tony Matterhorn is a popular Jamaican dancehall deejay. Matterhorn's worldwide popularity came in 2006, when he made a somewhat controversial song called "Dutty Wine" (Smash Riddim). The song is also a dance performed by young women, and many "dutty wining" competitions take place in Jamaica. The success of "Dutty Wine" has allowed Matterhorn's latest single "Goodas Fi Dem" (Gully Slime Riddim) to get significant airplay in Jamaica, North America and parts of the UK.

Joel

Joel Laureano simply known as "JOEL" - was born in Miami Beach, Florida. Joel is a former member of the Puerto Rican teen group Explosion. Blessed with charisma, charm and multicultural appeal this performer is refreshingly humble about his success and grateful that hard work, talent and fortune have taken him so far. Joel attended school in Miami during his early years, and feels very comfortable in both English and Spanish. So when he states that his favorite songs are romantic ballads, he is talking about equal preference for singing in either of the two languages.

Jonny

Jonny are a band from Nagoya, Japan that started life as a Weezer covers band but quickly built up a solid catalogue of original songs. They self-released a mini-album called Jonny which they followed up with the double-A side Unclefucker / Radio. The unfortunately titled Unclefucker contains one of the catchiest riffs ever to come out of a Fender and is still a live favourite, inciting bouncing and dancing in all.
