Teri has performed at various clubs and coffee houses around New York City. She performed for Oxygen Media as part of their national "tank tour" and was recently part of a live webcast radio show for Culturebodega.com.

    Bob Barlow is a singer/songwriter whose unique fusion of folk, pop and edgy optimism creates a truly memorable musical experience. Whether he’s singing about peace, love or orthodontia, listeners invariably end up smiling from ear to ear, tapping their toes and feeling a whole lot better about pretty much everything!
