The local star is featured in a lineup of such superstars Keith Urban, Trisha Yearwood, Gretchen Wilson and Leann Rimes.

The twenty year old Wolff, whose rock-infused country delivery and head-turning looks draw easy comparisons to Shania Twain and Gretchen Wilson, is taking time off from recording her debut album, scheduled to premiere in September, to appear at one of the nation's biggest country music reviews for the summer. She is recording at Adler's new state-of-the-art "studioA" digital recording studio at the Lakeside Legacy Arts Park in Crystal Lake .

Adler, whose album credits include "The Garage Album" and the "Groundhog Day" movie soundtrack, is also a digital recording specialist whose studioA is also a showroom for audio products sold through macsales.com.
