Torch Barbershop came about as a result of Jason Johnson’s experimentation on his own hair back in 1989 after his favorite barber was no longer available. Even though then Jason was only 14 years old then, he began cutting his own hair. At first he has some flaws but over time, the artistic nature in Jason took over, and he began perfecting his craft as a Barber. He kept experimenting on his cuts and styles. Pretty soon all his friends became impressed by his razor linings and started asking him if he could cut their hair. That’s when Jason knew he could become a superb barber. He has been cutting as a licensed barber for close to 14 years now. He runs Torch Barbershop at 7817 Unit C North 2nd St. Machesney Park, IL, near the corner of Harlem Rd. and North 2nd St. Torch gets its name from the core belief Jason and his team at the barbershop stand for, ‘Teaching Others Responsibility, Character, and Honor’. This barbershop is not your typical location ran by your everyday barbers. At Torch, they strive to brand themselves as a barbershop with higher standards of doing business, interacting with people, and playing the role of counselor in their customer’s lives. They are also their customers’ friends, and at times the only friends some of their customers have. Torch Barbershop also gives back to the community in the form of free haircuts to kids during the back to school seasons. They also have occasional school supplies drives that help underprivileged youth gain the tools they need to have a productive school life. They are also lifesavers for that crucial business meeting, photo shoot, event or a job interview. Torch Barbershop makes it their responsibility to make sure you look the part and your best.

Do you remember your first sip of coffee? Chances are you either had a great experience, or you pursed your lips and wondered ‘how can adults drink this?’ When I was in college I would carry my own coffee creamer around in my backpack. I carried it around so that I could tolerate the taste of university java. I would pour some into my cup, and then other’s cups as well. I did not know it at the time, but I was building community. A space where conversations took place, stories shared, testimony’s heard. All centered around, coffee. Cafè Amorè was created between my shifts as a police officer. My appreciation for coffee has grown exponentially through the police academy, working nights, and mommying to my joy filled little human I get to call, my son. Like Jesus, coffee has provided me a safe place to go when I need a break, or a boost of energy to drive my purpose.  Cafè Amorè will be collaborating with local non-profit agencies to provide survivors of trauma, domestic violence, and substance abuse a chance to work voluntarily to gain work experience. As a police officer, I have had many interactions with survivors of such. It would be ignorant of myself to believe the interactions alone, would be enough to motivate survivors to rebuild their lives with positive relationships, and begin anew. It simply does not work that way. It takes time and consistency, as many survivors of trauma or addiction relapse to their previous lifestyles within the first year. Cafè Amorè is more than a place of employment that serves phenomenal lattès. It is a place where everyone has a seat at the table.That’s the purpose of Cafè Amorè. A safe haven where community is built on principles of: self-love, healing, authenticity, and rebuilding. So many of us have survived strongholds on our lives that have left us feeling defeated, unloved, or invaluable. The reality is, you, are welcome at Cafè Amorè. Together we will grow sipping one lattè at a time.

What happens when a classically trained musician crosses paths with a roots-music maven? The answer is ‘Trinadora.’ Our music is a mélange of standards and original compositions in genres that include jazz, blues, classic country, early rock-n-roll, and just about any other ingredient you can think of. We season our vocals with keyboard, ocarina, concertina, harmonica, and guitar accompaniment. Curious about our name? Our duo is named for Janel's ocarina and Ron's guitar. A 'trinadora' is a bird native to Argentina, known for its unique song filled with trills. In Peruvian slang, 'trinadora' means 'guitar.' The word 'trinadora' is Spanish and derives from the verb 'trinar' which means 'to trill.'

Primetime Audio Video was originally called Stateline Satellite, a distributor & installer of Dish Network & DirecTV Satellite TV services, when we first opened our doors almost 20 years ago.

Vincent Records is an independent record label located in Rockford, IL. Our mission is to help local and independent artists express their talents by allowing them to do what they do best and letting us do all the rest. In an era where technology is advancing by the second, the music business is not susceptible to this change. In less than 40 years, we’ve gone from playing vinyl records to hear the top tunes to now having any song at the touch of our mobile phone. Artists are born to continue to create and help affect the emotions of others, but it becomes harder to do this when styles of business change with technological advances. This is where Vincent Records will be there for you. We can help you share your music with the world by playing live and selling your recordings. All you have to do is be an artist and we will do all the rest.
