1999 Atlanta champions

LiveWire

LiveWire is the pre-eminent vocal rock sensation out of Atlanta, GA. Since 1998, these seven talented musicians have been thrilling Atlanta TV, Radio and live audiences with their unique *rock-band-without-the-band* sound: they perform musically accurate arrangements of rock songs with only one instrument - the human voice. Their shows combine jaw-dropping musicality, contagious high energy, and a pinch or three of wackiness.

They have entertained thousands of people around the Atlanta area, appeared all over the Atlanta media - from morning news magazine appearances on the local NBC and FOX affiliates to news appearances on FOX, CBS, and ABC to radio appearances on 99X (WNNX FM - Atlanta's modern rock radio station) and Magic 96.7 (WMKJ-FM) - and are just as comfortable performing in a raucous club setting as they are in an intimate corporate cocktail party.
