Savannah
Meet 16 year-old Savannah Outen from Hillsboro, Oregon.

Savannah's myspace averages approximately three thousand plays per day. She has often been described as a child prodigy but genuinely refers to herself as just a normal teenage girl with a dream to sing. She has continuously won over the hearts of millions since she began performing live at the age of 2. At age 12, Savannah found her way to the finals of America’s Best New Talent and has been invited to perform the national anthem at various sporting events for teams such as the Oakland Raiders, LA Dodgers, Anaheim Angels, Seattle Mariners, Seattle SuperSonics, Seattle Storm, and the Portland Beavers. www.myspace.com/savannahoutenofficial

Jessica Lerner
Jessica Lerner, from San Diego, CA,  is so excited to be making her debut in Portland, Oregon.  Jessica's singer/songwriter musical style is unique as she writes and performs on piano and guitar. Jessica just released her self-titled CD, which will be sold at the concert, all profits going to the Cure JM Foundation.  Jessica's music speaks to a wide audience.  Jessica's writing style is very relatable and genuine as she shares her thoughts and experiences with the world.  Jessica's biggest goal is to reach as many people as she can and do good things with her music.  The best moments for Jessica are when someone buys her CD because they "need that song."  Since age 8, Jessica has been regularly performing in San Diego at the local malls, private venues and the Star Spangled Banner 10 times for the San Diego Padres.  Jessica's first music video of "Miracle'" is coming soon.    The Cure JM Benefit Concert is very dear to Jessica because her song "Miracle" inspired this concert and Jessica helped plan this wonderful event from the beginning.   For more information about Jessica Lerner, go to: www.myspace.com/Jessicalerner

Waiting In Vain
Waiting In Vain started out as a friendship between Ben and Dylan, who just happen to share a love for Reggae and Ska. Pretty soon Cayla joined the band as the drummer and everything sky-rocketed from there. After a couple of shows and the recording their EP, they still needed a bassist. Along came Matt Stolt (From Under Judgment), fitting their appetite for a great reggae bassist. Among achievements in the year of being together, our song "Karma" has played on 94.7 Alternative Portland. Also the song "The Spaces Between" was chosen to be on The Pier's Pacific NW Sampler. They played a handful of shows at The Hawthorne Theatre and the Satyricon (Portland, OR). They should be finishing their full length album by Summertime. www.myspace.com/waitinginvain0608

Cellar Door
Hailing from a dusty Portland Oregon basement, Cellar Door is the hybrid of a technically versed rhythm section, while having snappy, intelligent hooks. This pop rock alternative four piece places diversity and musicianship in the forefront while maintaining an energy that echoes loudly of the bygone grunge era of Portland yesteryear.

Innocent Rebellion
We are proud to say that we are a Christian rock band. But don’t be fooled, we can blow a speaker or two and have a great time doing it! 
We all met while playing for various worship bands at our home church, Evergreen Christian Center in Hillsboro, Oregon. The worship ministry is great, but we decided we could touch more lives by forming our own band, writing our own original songs and playing everywhere we were able. 
In the last year-and-a-half, we’ve been doing just that; playing everywhere from parks, coffee houses and parties to art festivals and, of course, churches. We even found time to record our first CD entitled “91:4” which was released in May 2009. To learn more about us or listen to our music visit us at www.myspace.com/innocentrebellion

They are honored to play the Cure JM benefit concert. The Augmentors strive to move you with their moody, intense, driving, energetic, and unique music.

Rosanne Sorboro
Event co-host - Let’s be honest; Rosanne is probably the only native Las Vegan you will ever meet.  She loves to play volleyball, basketball, softball, and poker because she likes to kick butt and win.  Her awesome family and friends are often the inspiration for her stand- up comedy and sketch comedy.  Even with the temptation of home delivery, she does her own grocery shopping.  She thinks jokes about your Mom are hilarious.  She has a fear of dehydration, but wine seems to help.  Rosanne was a genius dancer in a past life, and is an up and coming stand- up comedian in this one.  She thinks everyone should have at least a little bit of sparkle in their wardrobe, a nice bathrobe, and use sunscreen.

Charlie Wilson   Event host is excited to be once again in his hometown of Portland Oregon. In the past 4 years he has stage directed, auditioned, and taught over 50,000 dancers and singers in three different languages, and in 9 different countries around the world. Having performed worldwide on 8 tours with the performing group The Young Americans, featured in 3 film documentaries and performed in 2 television specials it is nice to be home once again.
