| As you head towards future successes, the ring that
signifies this success should say as much about who you
are and what makes you one-of-kind as it does about your
degree. No matter how you define yourself or how you define
success, your college class ring expresses some of the best
things that make you you.
Balfour will tailor-make your ring to reflect you and
your sensibilities. |

French-American jazz songstress Madeleine Peyroux makes her Luckman debut with her full arsenal of delicately sultry compositions and renditions. With hits such as Careless Love and Don't Wait Too Long, Madeleine Peyroux has earned her spot amongst jazz/blues divas such as Billie Holiday and Ella Fitzgerald - artists to whom she is often compared. With a warm, perfect blend of melancholy and carefree ingrained in her music, Ms. Peyroux's voice is as chillingly vivid as it is a powerhouse of emotion.

The Tindersticks will perform in a cinematic seating style, bringing together the music with the evocative images that inspired it.

Comprised of a talented team of producers who fuse traditional Mexican music with contemporary electronica, the Nortec Collective is one of the hottest musical groups to come out of Mexico in recent years. Based primarily in Tijuana, Mexico, the Nortec Collective's headlining artists Bostich & Fussible build musical bridges where others build walls. An energetic blend of Norteño and techno, words from which they draw their name, the Nortec Collective's musical mastery is magical.
