On the Main Stage

   

AA County Dance Conservatory

founded in September 2002 in Deale, Maryland by J. Davis Hobdy. The goal of County Dance Conservatory is to provide quality, professional dance instruction for all ages. Specializing in jazz, modern and tap, the school also provides a strong foundation in ballet technique. Our goal for the recreational dancer is to gain self-confidence through the physical and mental accomplishments that come from positive dance instruction. The staff will provide the more serious student with the knowledge and training necessary to prepare for a career in dance.

Opal Skye

Arkansas native Skye Pollard landed in Baltimore in the fall of 2007 with little more than an acoustic guitar and a dream. The singer/songwriter enrolled in Towson University. After a jam session to which Pollard invited electric violinist Ashley Dodson, Opal Skye was born. Pollard and Dodson became fast friends and began playing with different musicians in the area. Looking to round out and add depth to their sound, Pollard and Dodson asked vocalist Jennifer Ansara to join the group. Having played at several venues including Recher Theatre, Towson University, Baltimore and Chesapeake Pride, Opal Skye has set out to make a name for themselves in the Baltimore Music Scene. When not on stage, Opal Skye can be found hard at work writing and preparing music for their first cd, which will feature their debut single "Down this Broken Road."

Angie Miller 

 Following in the footsteps of Americana songwriters such as Joni Mitchell and James Taylor, Angie mixes a smart pop style into modern folk rock tunes and introspective ballads that hook the listener into the story being told in each song. As Waazzup Magazine says, "Her music, which is both playful and thoughtful, mixes folk ballads and sultry standards, and alternative acoustic pop." Angie's music cuts straight to the heart and comfortably slides up next to your own experiences and memories like a good conversation..
