The Hall Sisters

A Premier Country Pop Act

The Hall Sisters over the last few years have established themselves as one of the premier acts in the country pop genre. With multiple CD releases and new material in the works, the ensemble has also maintained a robust touring schedule. They have performed on notable stages such as The Grand Ole Opry, Carnegie Hall, and Dollywood. In 2022, they delighted audiences at the Stanly County Concert Association.

Latin Swing Entertainment

Tropical Music Band

Latin Swing Entertainment, established in Raleigh, North Carolina in January 2019, is a vibrant tropical music band that specializes in a wide range of Latin genres including Salsa, Merengue, Cumbia, and Bachata. The band was founded by trumpet player and musical director Sandry E Romero Miller, who embarked on his musical journey in 1998 at the Music Conservatory “Jose Luis Paz” in Maracaibo, Venezuela. This early start led him to join the National System of Youth and Children’s Orchestras of Venezuela, famously known as “El Sistema”.
