Chayce Beckham is one of the most buzzed about newcomers in country music today, having won over millions of hearts while competing on Season 19 of American Idol. From the first audition, superstar Katy Perry highlighted how Chayce’s gravely vocals sound like “the heart of America.” Armed with a determination to make something of himself and the unwavering support of his family, Chayce auditioned for the competition show after undergoing a particularly difficult year to ultimately become the first-ever show winner to claim the title with an original song—kickstarting his journey to fulfilling his lifelong dream of becoming a singer, songwriter and entertainer.

Following his first time onstage after performing in his fifth-grade talent show, the southern Californian began teaching himself guitar—eventually finding his way into a Reggae band (while earning his wages at a construction equipment rental company). Influenced by artists such as Chris Stapleton, Tyler Childers, and Kolton Moore & The Clever Few, and knowing that country music was where his heart called home, Chayce turned to Instagram as a creative outlet for his more intimate songs, sharing his original material.

With his family, his hometown of Apple Valley and now America behind him, the mellow 24-year-old with the alluring rasp recently released his debut song, “23.” The song is a semi-autobiographical account of his struggles with alcohol and of the lows it can take a person. After its May release, the song quickly earned the top spot on both the iTunes Country and all genre charts. Now signed to 19 Recordings in partnership with BBR Music Group/Wheelhouse Records and finding his home in Nashville, Chayce is ready to dig into new music and share his signature sound with his legions of fans.

Jilly and Ryan’s compelling song-writing, dynamic vocal harmonies and stunning musicianship have them poised for a breakthrough in the music industry.

Fredrik is a rock/fusion guitar player living in the south of Sweden. He works as a solo artist, session player, clinician and guitar teacher.

Fredrik got interested in the guitar after watching a Guns N’ Roses live concert on Swedish television. A couple of days later his parents bought him his first electric guitar. The rest is history…

In 2011, Fredrik released his debut solo album “Silhouettes” which, according to many critics, was an innovative style of instrumental guitar music. It was followed up in 2017 by his second solo album entitled “Static Alteration”.

In September 2020, Fredrik started the progressive rock/fusion band M3 alongside drummer Carl Williams and bass player Simon Hall. They are currently writing music for their first album.

The Brook & The Bluff is a Birmingham-born, Nashville-based band that has quickly become recognized by its evocative blend of vocal harmony, soulful air and groovitational pull. These elements are readily apparent in the group’s releases, which have helped spur the band forward in their musical pursuits. What started as a duo of Alec & Joseph transformed into the dynamic live act with John & Fred filling out the band.

The quartet’s early music was widely successful – from charting on Spotify’s US and Canada Viral 50 Playlists to sold out shows across the country, the band has had an exhilarating launch. The Brook & The Bluff’s debut full length album, FIRST PLACE, was released in late 2019 and the band continues to grow with thrilling live shows across the country.

The brain child of a future banker and a drop out bartender, The Narrowbacks are a fresh voice for songs and stories old and new. After some late night sing songs, a couple whiskeys and a few lost jobs we came up with a young punk attitude that found itself running through the veins of an old time folk band. The Narrowbacks: American First, Irish Always.

Nearly three years into their genre-bending career, Larry and band TOGETHER make “Ledfoot Larry”.
