<p>Crowned
 "The Entertainer" by Mr. Las Vegas/Wayne Newton himself, on the E! 
Network's reality TV series, James Delisco has proved he is more than 
worthy of that title. After completing his one million dollar contract 
at the Las Vegas Hilton, where his show opened to rave reviews, 
"Delisco" continues to obtain critical acclaim in every market and venue
 on his recent world-wide tour.<br><br>An iconoclastic showroom 
performer with fantastic energy, Delisco emanates old school charm with 
contemporary charisma. Where classic quality meets edgy rock and soul 
style with undeniable stage presence, Delisco is the future of music and
 entertainment.<br><br>On the threshold of major stardom, this polished 
young talent and electrifying performer returns to the U.S. from Berlin,
 Germany, the Venetian Casino in Macau and opening the new Sands Casino 
in Singapore. He plays to sold out audiences everywhere he appears, 
which is a testament to both the mystery &amp; intrigue of Delisco.</p>
<p>Kelli Reisen, vocalist</p>
<p>Reisen
 can’t remember a time when she didn’t love the Lord, music or people! 
Her first foray onto the music scene was when she was fifteen years old 
and was highlighted on a children’s Christian album produced by Word 
Records, entitled, Welcome to the Human Race.<br><br>Her 
musical pursuit propelled her onward to Olivet Nazarene University so 
she could become a member of the widely acclaimed Orpheus Choir which 
was featured annually at Bill and Gloria Gaither’s Homecoming events in 
Indianapolis. She then went on to tour the nation with the international
 group The Discovery Singers, performing the musical presentation of the
 life of Fanny Crosby. After college she was presented with the 
incredible opportunity to sing the theme song and love song on two made 
for television movies for ABC After school specials, produced by Brent 
Havens. For many years Kelli was a Christian recording artist with the 
Word label working with producers Jon and Dino Elefante, Dan Posthuma 
and Don Koch. Her time with Word produced two albums, Dream of a Lifetime, and Someday,
 and a song on the Rock Power Praise Hymns album. She was also featured 
on a compilation lullaby album by discovery records, and sang background
 vocals on albums for other artist. These albums garnered her six top 
ten hits on the charts, numerous concerts with the top talent in 
Christian music, Larnelle Harris, Jars of Clay, Angelo and Veronica, 
Bryan Duncan, Bob Carlisle, Wayne Watson, For Him, Phillips Craig and 
Dean, Mark Lowry etc,, and provided her the platform to travel the 
country singing in many churches, colleges, women’s conferences, 
headlining conferences for Focus on the Family conferences and numerous 
appearances on Dr. Robert Schuler’s Crystal Cathedral.</p>
<p>Felicia Barton, vocalist</p>
<p>Entertaining
 20 million people, live, on American Idol 8, was a life-long dream for 
Felicia Barton. She grew up singing in churches, jazz groups, and 
performing in a number of musicals. In 2000, she was crowned Miss 
Virginia Beach and praised for her beauty, poise &amp; amazing voice. 
She blossomed as a Christian worship leader, writing and recording 2 
live CDs. In 2008, as a budding, local solo artist, she was received by 
standing-room-only crowds. She was selected to compete in American Idol 
and reached the top 8 performers. Since, she has been developing her 
music with some of Nashville's most respected writers and producers. 
Loved for her 'raspy, soulful tone' and authentic, positive lyrics, time
 will tell that her success on American Idol was only the beginning. 
Along with her husband, Loren Barton, and 3 year old son, Malachi, she 
has recently moved from her home in Virginia Beach, VA to Nashville, TN 
as she continues to pursue her love for writing and performing. </p>
