"Local Music Fans Helped Make River Rock A Success"

At various times throughout the day on Saturday, almost 1,000 Chattanooga music fans checked out River Rock 2004, the first annual free fall music festival in Coolidge Park.

Sponsored by Torrent Records, LLC, and 96.5 The Mountain, the event featured both local and regional bands with a diversity of styles.

"We were very pleased with the response from the community this first year and are looking forward to an even bigger event in 2005," said Mark Childress, managing partner of Torrent Records. "The bands put on a tremendous show, and the city and local fans are very supportive."

Performers included local favorites Deiselhum and Little House, singer-songwriter Elise Berkes, Atlanta's Red Letter Agent, Nashville's Luna Halo and Torrent Records artist Proto.

Artists interested in performing at River Rock 2005 should contact Torrent Records at www.torrentrecords.com.

Bio

somewhere between dreams of happily ever after and the lingering pain of loss - that's where you have to look for reality.

always getting a bit ahead of herself, an adolescent elise started writing songs before even mastering an instrument. but dad saw that the days of dreamily studying the danelectros in musician's friend were not going to end anytime soon- so christmas brought a seafoam green miracle to their home that year. visual learner that she is, learning to play came complete with color coded flashcards, and late-night sessions with the brothers she had come to admire so much musically. early influences included pretty much everything that never got radio airplay by sixpence none the richer and sarah mclachlan.

these days, elise makes her home and her music under a stairwell in chattanooga, tn. in a few short years, the sounds that come from this little dynamo have evolved and grown tremendously. however, the simplicity and sincerity remain unaltered.
