Karl Stoll and the Danger Zone is an award winning, butt-rockin’, electrifyin’, houserockin’ roots rock & blues band from Northern Virginia.

This band is rockin’!

For more than 20 years, The Danger Zone has been playing a unique mix of danceable Americana roots rock featuring the sounds of Chicago, New Orleans, Memphis, Texas and DC, plus a collection of original songs being played on radio stations across the country.
The band has appeared on NPR’s “A Prairie Home Companion with Garrison Keillor” to an audience of 15 million listeners!

Rebecca Porter embodies the soulful, lonesome sound of the Shenandoah Valley. After a decade of honing her craft as the frontwoman of local cover bands, she transformed pandemic loneliness into two EPs – “Prime Rainbow Conditions” and “Queen of the Local”, the latter of which was successfully crowdfunded in March 2023. With completely independent legwork, Porter’s music is making rounds nationally and internationally. Audiences react wonderfully to Porter’s fusion of honky tonk and singer-songwriter sounds performed solo or with her band, The Rhinestone Roses. Most recently, Porter was inducted into Rissi Palmer’s Color Me Country Class of 2024.

Melanie Pearl is a solo act who has performed across the Shenandoah Valley for the past 10 years with her keyboard, ukulele, and mic in tow. With a deep passion for music and a penchant for connecting with others, Melanie has curated a large repertoire of music curtailing each set to different audiences and their requests.

Most describe her style as “popular hits throughout the decades” as she performs many of the great hit songs from artists like Janis Joplin, Dolly Parton, Amy Winehouse, Adele, and several others.

You can find Melanie playing at venues like Valerie Hill Vineyard & Winery, The Half Note Lounge, Bear Chase Brewing Co., Briede Family Vineyards, and other establishments across the northern Virginia area.
