 ANN ARBOR, MI. (Top40 Charts/ Borders PR) - Who: Lifehouse is singer-songwriter Jason Wade, drummer Rick Woolstenhulme and bassist Bryce Soderberg - all still in their mid-20s. Their multi-platinum 2000 debut, "No Name Face," produced "Hanging by a Moment," a number one alternative hit which crossed over to become Top 40's Most Played Song, while 2005's self-titled platinum effort yielded "You and Me," a giant hit ballad that set a record by spending more than 60 weeks on "Billboard's" Hot 100 chart. Their latest CD is "Who We Are." Los Angeles based R&B vocalist Colbie Caillat is a singer and songwriter who became a sensation on the social networking site. Last October when she had 6,240 friends, "Rolling Stone Magazine" highlighted her as one of the top female artists on MySpace.com. Ultimately, Caillat became the number one unsigned artist for over four months and her number of friends swelled to more than 100,000. Her profile has been visited over three million times and has more than 10 million plays. Caillat's debut CD is "Coco" on Universal Republic. Armed with her acoustic guitar and her dusky vocals, she evokes the same gentle, yet spirited style of her musical influences John Mayer, Bob Marley, Lauryn Hill and The Weepies. What: Special live musical performances by Lifehouse and Caillat followed by both artists signing their latest CDs.
