Monica Jane Hoelscher
The Snake Pit in Enaville, Idaho1480 Coeur Dalene River RdKingston, ID83839 Map
Monica Jane Hoelscher is a professional singer/songwriter from the Great Lakes State of Michigan who now resides in Wilmington, NC. She plays acoustic guitar accompanied by her voice which is often compared to Allison Krauss and Dolores O’Riordan, from The Cranberries.
Monica is a self taught musician. At the very young age of 7, she took interest in piano and began to create her own melodies.

I like to write songs that are concise… that I can break down to just vocals and guitar and it sounds complete.”
Monica has performed for thousands of people on board Royal Caribbean and Celebrity Infinity cruise ship. She has release two albums of all original music, “My Hurricane” and “Wildfire.” Wildfire was recorded in Nashville, TN with producer Jim Kimball. He has played guitar for Reba McEntire for over 20 years. Monica and Jim have a contract in hopes to get her songs out to some music supervisors, who then help get songs on TV shows or movies....

Alma
The Snake Pit in Enaville, Idaho1480 Coeur Dalene River RdKingston, ID83839 Map
Alma (say it like "Alamo") lives in Western North Carolina. She plays patchwork music: country, folk, and Appalachian roots sewn together to make something unique. Songwriting is cheaper than therapy, and old songs make her happy.
Music has taken her lots of places, from the hometown bars to church to the highway. She spent a while performing as an entertainer on a passenger train, and she wound up getting 3 yeses from ABC's American Idol Judges on Season 1 and being sent to the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood, CA. Music continues to give her stories to tell.
As a kid she'd spend summers in the Great Grandma's mountain house in Western NC. Her English teacher Mama took her to historical book readings and heritage events, and she fell in love with mountain culture and heritage - especially the music. She was the kid frolicking arounud the yard singing Scotch-Irish murder ballads, passed down through generations; songs about old-true loves and the occasional knife to the heart.
She started taking fiddle lessons around age 12, practicing old-time tunes outside because of the dying-cat noises, and then she went on to learn clawhamer banjo and guitar. She's played in lots of bands, but she's mostly a solo act these days.
Her musical influences include country gold, bluegrass, folk, old-time, americana, and blues. She attributes inspiration to artists such as Allison Krauss, Gillian Welch, Ola Belle Reed, Bobbie Gentry, Dolly Parton, Sheila Kay Adams, Emmylou Harris, Lucinda Williams, and so many more. Apparently she sounds a lot like Jewel.
She's super happy to be playing for ya'll.... See MoreSee Less
