Torrey Mercer
Location: Paddock Area
Time: 2:30pm - 3:00pm
Info: Torrey Mercer is an LGBTQ+ award-winning pop artist with natural jazz tones in her voice comparable to Adam Levine or Lady Gaga, with the thought-provoking lyrical punch of twenty-one pilots or Sia. Her greatest accomplishments to date include performing on a national antibullying music tour across the U.S, performing for a pre-season NFL game with a crowd of 60,000+ people, getting her song "Looking Glass" featured on the popular YouTube series "The Most Popular Girls in School" (with a channel subscriber count of 860,000+), and recently getting a licensing contract for music off her debut EP, "Exhale" with Jingle Punks in New York.
Torrey created her debut EP as a culmination record under the influence of a few different producers, and her intent with the record was to create songs with deeper lyrical meaning about the hardships she has faced in her life.
Thea Austin
formally from SNAP!
Location: Paddock Stage
Time: 4:00pm - 4:45pm
Info: Thea Austin fits many categories: sultry diva, powerful vocalist, producer, lyricist, stunning beauty and international performer. Yet her music defies categorization and crosses all boundaries. She has been fronting bands, among them the Pop/Dance group SNAP, and honing her vocal skills since she was in
her early teens.
After working on a solo project. She sensed Thea's talent and introduced her to the SNAP organization. Thea was whisked to Germany to begin work on Snap's album The Madman's Return together with the rapper Turbo B. She not only sang, but co-authored many of the cuts.
As the lead singer of Snap she took the world by storm with her first single, "Colour of Love" (Composed by Thea) soared into the Top Ten across Europe and reestablished Snap as a force to be reckoned with.
The second single the Thea composed was the iconic Pop, Dance hit called "Rhythm Is A Dancer". The song instantly took a firm grasp on the number one position on numerous charts ALL around the world.
After Michael Jackson witnessed Thea work the stage, it came as no surprise that he asked her to be his opening act for the Dangerous Tour and HBO Special, where she played to more than 70,000 fans nightly.
Thea had a huge international dance hit with the song "I Can't Get Enough" under the name of SOULSEARCHER.
The song had massive crossover appeal from dance clubs to radio as it slammed in at #8 on the UK National Pop Charts and topped the US Dance Charts as well.
Her follow-up single "Do It To Me Again", which Thea co-wrote, went to #1 on the UK Club Charts and was a Top 20 hit on the UK Pop Charts. It should come as no surprise that Thea continued her winning streak, this time under the name PUSAKA, when she co-wrote the massive dance hit "You're The Worse Thing for Me (I'm Addicted)" with her friends, Chris Cox and DJ Irene.

One of the greatest legacies in music history can be summed up by just three letters—TLC.
Date: June 6, 2020
Time: 7:30pm
Location: Corona Grandstand Stage
Tickets: TLC Concert Tickets
Info:
Those characters merely hint at the talent of Tionne “T-Boz” Watkins, Rozonda “Chilli” Thomas, and the late Lisa “Left Eye” Lopes, but they immediately evoke an unparalleled journey nonetheless. That journey encompasses immortal anthems such as “Waterfalls,” “Creep,” “No Scrubs,” and “Unpretty,” to name a few, as well as sales of 70 million records worldwide, four GRAMMY®️Awards, two RIAA diamond-certified albums among a total of four multiplatinum albums, ten Top 10 singles, and four Number 1 singles. Meanwhile, the VH1 original film CrazySexyCool: The TLC Story chronicled their rise and broke records as the highest-rated television film premiere of 2013 and the highest-rated original premiere on the network between consistent touring.
Given the legacy behind this timeless moniker, it’s fitting the undisputed “best-selling American girl-group of all-time” chose the name TLC for their fifth and first album in 15 years. At the end of the day, it’s TLC through and through, and there’s nothing more CrazySexyCool than that.
