Based in Orlando, FL, VoicePlay performs their own incredible brand of

entertainment across the country and around the world. What began quite literally as a street corner bar-bershop act has now evolved into an internationally acclaimed tour-ing sensation.

VoicePlay is unlike any the-atrical experi-ence available today, recreat-ing the orches-trated sound of an entire musi-cal production

with nothing but the human voice.The cast of VoicePlay has taken

the timeless sound of vocal music and turned it completely on it’s head.Re-imagined as a full stage show, amazing, humorous, and vertigo-inducing harmonies pepper Voice-Play’s music-without-music sound

as it ping-pongs between eras and styles, channel-ing the breadth of the musical landscape and lacing it withinventive and of-ten hilarious on-stage theatrics.

As seen on NBC’s the sing-offOriginal. Imaginative. Ridiculous. Origimagidiculous.

EARL ELKINS, JR.The soaring tenor voice heard on most of the leads in VoicePlay’s songs belong to none other than Earl Elkins, Jr. Involved in organized musical groupings at

a very early age, Earl has literally traveled the globe in pursuit of the ultimate vocal challenge. Earl’s rock opera tenor voice has been heard from England to Japan while he was touring as an ambassador of the city of Orlando, with then Mayor, Glenda Hood.Earl also plays a large part in creating original concepts. Many of the melodies and alternate harmonies heard in VoicePlay’s catchy tunes come from Earl’s spontaneous noodeling around, and end up being some of the most creative spots in VoicePlay’s albums and live performances. When not working with VoicePlay, Earl can be seen performing on several world class cruise lines and around Orlando including Crush at Disney’s Animal Kingdom’s Finding Nemo, The Musical. And if he’s not there, check the free weight station at the local Gold’s gym.As well as vocal talent, Earl also possesses instrumental talent as a French horn and trumpet player. He has been with VoicePlay since its inception in the beginning of 2000. With his powerful voice and commanding stage presence, he is an undeniable asset to the cast.

GEOFF CASTELLUCCIGeoff Castellucci was born in Alexandria, VA and with well over 10,000 professional a cappella performances to his credit, has been singing since he can

remember. His earliest musical memories are of playing the piano at his grandfather’s house when he was just five years old and break-dancing for home-movies. Recognizing musical talent and terrible dance skills, Geoff’s parents enrolled him in classical and jazz piano training. From that doorway to music, Geoff branched out to vocals and guitar, but still loves to play the keys.Geoff got his first taste of a cappella through singing in the middle school choir, but didn’t really develop as a “bass man” until high school when he co-founded VoicePlay (then 42Five) with Layne, Earl, and former members Scott Porter (yes, THAT Scott Porter) and Michael Kilgore.

Although Geoff’s first love was music, he married his second in the summer of 2007 and enjoys nothing more than spending time at home with his beautiful and talented wife Kathy— although she sometimes takes a back seat to his other loves which include an unhealthy addiction to Twinkies, Diet Coke, Alton Brown, Starbucks coffee, South Park, William Shatner, and anything with an Apple logo on it.The brainchild behind many of VoicePlay’s onstage antics, Geoff finds his creative outlet in penning arrangements for the act and coming up with new and innovative ways to embarrass the cast on stage. When not working with VoicePlay, Geoff can be seen making the rounds at Orlando area theme parks, including a very rumbly Frankenstein and Elwood Blues at Universal Studios Florida.

LAYNE STEINBorn on Dec 16th in Orlando, Florida, Layne Stein has been singing since his earliest years in school, and like Geoff and Earl, was originally trained as an

instrumentalist, playing the violin for 14 years before joining VoicePlay. After realizing he could spit to make money, he quickly learned and mastered the art of vocal percussion. All of those weird-funky-amazing-wow sound effects and drum lines come straight from his very tired mouth.From an artistic context, Layne can be considered the epicenter of production for the group, including production on all of VoicePlay’s albums. Layne is also one of the main writers for VoicePlay but doesn’t limit himself to any particular genre or style. He has penned and produced for a number of artists, some local, some large through his recording studio Rayne’s Room and is quickly becoming known as THE last word in vocal and instrumental recording.In addition to his many and varied musical interests, Layne also holds a degree in computer engineering from the University of Central Florida, which has helped to buttress his expertise and taught him the value of continued education and the constant pursuit of a better recording.When not performing with the cast of VoicePlay, Layne can be seen behind a console in his studio or behind a

mixing board running sound for a live show. Also, Layne has appeared in national commercials for the food network and in long lines at Burger King, anxiously awaiting the return of the Shaq Pack.

ELIEZER “ELI” JACOBSONOn a surprisingly cool August evening, Eliezer Jacobson arrived to Florida aboard an interplanetary spacecraft from

the Zeta Galaxy. He already knew what his mission would be even though he was only seconds old. Today his part in the VoicePlay lineup furthers the fulfillment of that epic mission.After his arrival he spent his early years in a small town just outside of Orlando, FL. Though the people of that town thought him an outcast, they also found themselves strangely and uncontrollably drawn to his magnetic charisma and classically handsome looks. Like most of the other guys, it was in high school that Eli discovered a cappella as well as his other loves, writing and recording, Soul, and Rock n’ Roll. From the age of 15 he has been actively working toward completing his epic mission spending most of his time either in studios or on stage.Throughout his career Eli has fronted many a rock band and has either been fully responsible or collaborative in the production and writing of hundreds of songs internationally and possibly interplanetary and interdimensionally. To better further his mission’s efforts he also went to school to earn his bachelor’s degree in business management while still seeing much of this Earth world as he continued work in the music and entertainment industry.

VoicePlay is where clarity lies for Eliezer. He counts himself lucky for having been a part of it for so long and sees only a bright future ahead. While responsible for some of the quirky furturistic musical ideas as well as left field conversations, he is also well known for his powerful galactic soulful rock vocals. In fulfilling his title as the group’s Director of All Things Awesome he puts his degree, artist management experience, and advanced alien understanding to good use. This is the right path. This is the road to mission completion… Stay Tuned!

TONY WAKIMBorn April 3 on a dark and stormy night, Tony has been performing since he can re-member. He also shares an unprecedented love for feature

animation and studied and trained at the Rhode Island School of Art and Design. When 2-D Animation (hand-drawn) was retired in 2003, Tony focused his sights on the other love of his life, performing. His credits have ranged from original pop music, to theatrical tours, to the Prince of Darkness himself, Dracula.From the age of 17, Tony has worked for “The Mouse” (as he is affectionately known) touring, dancing, and in recent years even provided the voice to a familiar “Street Rat” with a magic lamp. Through all the endeavors of his career however, nothing has challenged him or brought as much fulfillment as performing with the extraordinary talents of the cast of VoicePlay. Having said that, his love of performing has been known to be eclipsed by anything produced by Max Martin, Barnes and Noble, classic movies and his hopeless addiction to Starbucks.

18 South’s music is created by a wide array of influences. The organic

and earthy quality of their sound rings with overtones of Blues, Bluegrass, Jazz and Gospel. It lends itself perfectly to their stripped down acoustic approach that is truly “Americana.” The Band member résumé’s read like an Encyclopedia of Musical History and once you see them live, you’ll know why they are individually some the most well-respected musicians on the scene today.

Larry Atamanuik (drums) and Mike Bub (doghouse bass) hold down a deep and unmovable groove behind Jimmy Wallace’s rich vocals and slamming New Orleans-style piano that in turn gives Guthrie Trapp the opportunity to freely express his fluid and versatile guitar style. With Jon Randall’s mournful tenor vocals and solid guitar playing, the band provides a perfect venue for Jessi Alexander to nail the audience to the wall with her smoky heart wrenching vocals.

18 South was born in the dining room of a house on the quiet Nashville Street, 18th Avenue South. The band is the coming together of six musicians whose one common desire is to create a band defined by nothing other than its music. 18 South’s music reflects the divergent musicianship and

experiences of its individual members.

Texas native Jon Randall Stewart got his start playing bluegrass around the Dallas area. Having moved to Nashville over 20 years ago, he has become one of Music City’s top session players, singers and producers. A Grammy and CMA award winner, Jon’s career has run the gamut of touring the world with Emmylou Harris and Sam Bush, to releasing several major label albums, to writing the smash hit ‘Whiskey Lullaby’ with Grand Ole Opry legend and Country Music Hall of Fame member, Bill Anderson. In 18 South, Jon brings all of his talents to the front: his pure tenor lead and harmony voice, distinctive acoustic guitar and mandolin playing and his songwriting.

Jessi Alexander was raised in Jackson, Tennessee. The argument could be made that Jackson lies at the crossroads of American Roots music and her style represents the best of Memphis and Nashville. Jessi made the country charts with the critically acclaimed Sony/BMG album, ‘Honeysuckle Sweet’. Additionally, she has become an in demand studio vocalist and songwriter. Her song ‘The Climb’, co-written with John Mabe and recorded by Miley Cyrus, had a run of 15 weeks at #1 on the Billboard Pop Chart. Jessi brings to 18 South not only great songs but also delivers them with a voice, as one might imagine, country, bluesy and drenched in southern soul.

Keyboardist Jimmy Wallace is a road veteran as well as an ace studio player. He is equally at home on piano and B-3 organ. Jimmy’s playing is a definite reflection of his Louisiana roots. Additionally, Jimmy is a soulful vocalist and songwriter. 18 South performs several of his compositions including one from a series of songs he is currently writing based on the characters of the Peanuts comic strip and animations.

Guthrie Trapp came to Nashville from the Gulf Coast. With the ability to play many different acoustic and electric styles, he is at ease in any genre of music. Guthrie is one of the most in demand guitarists in Nashville. From Bluegrass to Blues, Rock, Jazz and Country, Guthrie’s playing covers it all. The last few years have seen Guthrie performing with Patty Loveless on her ‘Mountain Soul II’ tour as well as the challenging dynamics and genre bending sounds of the Jerry Douglas Band.

Larry Atamanuik is the official groove master of 18 South. Cutting his teeth in the Toronto club scene as a teen, Larry first reached the national spotlight as a member of the seminal rock band Seatrain. A drummer sensitive to the dynamics of acoustic instruments, Larry has been the first-call for many Nashville artists including Emmylou Harris, Sam Bush, Alison Krauss and Union Station and the Alison Brown Quintet.

Bassist Mike Bub is a 20-year veteran of the music scene in Nashville. In addition to spending 13 years with the Grammy award winning Del McCoury Band, Mike has had the opportunity to work and record with many of bluegrass music’s first generation artists. The past few years have seen Mike stretching his boundaries on the upright bass touring with Vince Gill, Peter Rowan, Tony Rice, Tim O’Brien, Shawn Camp and Danny Barnes.

For more than 40 years, Dwight Lenox’s rich tenor voice and dynamic presence has capti-

vated audiences around the country.Growing up in New York,

Dwight honed his talent in the church choir. He went on to study and perform musical styles as di-verse as country and rock ‘n’ roll. But his gospel roots, combined with such childhood influences as-Nancy Wilson, Nat Cole and Sarah Vaughn, made jazz a natural show-case for his talent.

From blues to ballads and jazz to swing, Dwight shines. His impecca-ble instincts and mellow sound have garnered the attention of some of the finest musicians in the industry. He’s performed with Sammy Tucker and renowned organist Hank Marr. He’s been showcased alongside the likes of Freddie Hubbard, Bobbie Humphrys, Ramsey Lewis and Her-bie Mann. And as featured vocalist

with the 17-piece Columbus Jazz Orchestra, he’s shared the stage with Harold Jones and Carmen Bradford.

Dwight’s fluid style lends itself to a vast repertoire from Nat King Cole, Frank Sinatra, James Ingram, Stevie Wonder, Lou Rawls and many more. But his raw abilities are uniquely evidenced in his perfor-mance of original music. He’s sung on numerous recordings, including works for commercial and corporate use. He’s an accomplished studio session singer. And not surprising-ly, Dwight is a talented songwriter himself.

Performing at galas, fund rais-ers, private parties and clubs with his own band The Lenox Avenue Express. Dwight’s career has taken him from New York to LA to the heart of the Midwest. Once you hear this gifted vocalist, you’ll agree that this is the start of a long, and suc-cessful musical journey.

It’s a common misconception that income from ticket sales is sufficient to operate a performing arts facility such as the Ogle Center. Ticket sales cover only 25% of the Ogle Center’s operating expenses. It’s also a common misconception that the Ogle Center is fully funded by Indiana University, and therefore by the state of Indiana and its taxpayers. While we do receive financial support from Indiana University — and IU Southeast in particular — we could not function on that support alone. In addition to ticket revenue and support from the university, the Ogle Center, the IU Southeast Music and Theatre Departments depend on the generosity of businesses and individuals to continue and strengthen arts programming in our community. If you have enjoyed past performances at the Ogle Center, please consider making a contribution to our annual programming fund. If you are a regular contributor to the Fund for the Arts, you can earmark your donation for the Ogle Center.

FRIENDS OF THE OGLE CENTERThe Ogle Center’s community of donors, Friends of the Ogle Center, join corporate, philanthropic, and cultural leaders in ensuring the Ogle Center continues to thrive as a presenter of world-class performing arts in southern Indiana. Your financial support is vital to the operation of this community treasure and helps foster educational opportunities for IU Southeast and community members alike.Your gift to the Ogle Center may be designated to either our Operations Support Fund, which supports the annual operations of the Ogle Center, or to the Ogle Center Endowment Fund. A gift to the endowment is a lasting gift. The income from the endowment helps defray the costs of programs brought to the Ogle Center for presentation to the University and to the public. In addition, income may be used to purchase art works for the IU Southeast campus, provide scholarships for students at IU Southeast in the arts, or generally enhance the role of the arts in the region served by IU Southeast.

Contributions help the Ogle Center to:• Ensure the level of excellence and variety in programming• Maintain affordable ticket prices• Provide for the ongoing restoration of the Ogle Center’s art collection• Provide future funding needs for the maintenance of the Ogle Center to ensure that it remains the premier performing arts facility

in southern Indiana for future generations.
