Sunny Sweeney
The mastery of holes in the wall, major label stint, andserious songwriting chops make Sunny Sweeney somethingof a rarity: an artist with barroom cred, mainstreamvalidation, and songs meaty enough for listening rooms. Or,as Rolling Stone put it: “Sweeney is one of the rareentertainers who can hold her own at CMA Fest as well asAmericanaFest.”Just as comfortable commanding a stadium stage on tourwith Bob Seger as she is pouring her heart out from alistening-room stool, she is an outlier: A humble East Texaskid with super-star chops, singing her own songs made up ofequal parts wit, soul, and hard truth. Seven albums into acareer that has earned praise from Rolling Stone, NPR,American Songwriter, and more, Sunny has drawn a loyalfollowing, experienced the business from every angle, andultimately, embraced her independence––it’s smart countrymusic that likes to have its rock and honky tonk, too, and isthat much better for it.Sweeney will release a new studio album in 2025 producedby Sweeney and Harley Husbands.

Taylor Hunnicutt w/ Carri Smithey Band
Taylor Hunnicutt makes old-school southern music for the modern world. She’s a proud daughter of Alabama, writing songs that nod to the state’s tradition of country storytelling, rock ‘n’ roll rebellion, and guitar-driven grit. Sharpened by a touring schedule that’s kept her on the road for roughly 200 days a year, she makes her full-length debut with Alabama Sound — an album that unfolds like a love letter to the American South, written by a road warrior who’s spent most of the decade far away from home. “It’s a little country, a little singer/songwriter, a little Americana, and a lot of soulful southern rock,” says Hunnicutt, an opera-trained vocalist who began writing songs after dropping out of music school, landing a waitressing job at a blues juke joint, and sitting in with the bands that came through town. She’s no longer the guest artist, though — she’s the main act, and Alabama Sound showcases her high-energy, hellraising brand of southern stomp, country-rock twang, and amplified attitude.
“Behind the Guitar” Acoustic Tour with BELLES and Special Guest Charly Reynolds
With stunning vocals and lyrics as rich as the soil of her native Nebraska, singer-songwriter Kelli Rachel Belles has amassed over 70M cumulative views and streams of her original songs on all platforms. With a direct fan reach of 1M, country music lovers have found in her a young woman who tells stories of love, heartbreak and hardships with meaning, wit, and unflinching honesty, much like her inspirations Loretta Lynn and June Carter Cash. Having just inked a deal with Deluge Music Publishing in Nashville, and East Music Row Records, Belles announced her second club headlining tour, The Trust Issues Tour, this fall with shows in 14 major cities across the US. “Belles crystal clear vocals and compelling songwriting verify she’s a promising new artist with a bright future ahead,” CMT.com. Charly Reynolds, a charismatic 24-year-old singer-songwriter born and raised in the sunshine state of Florida, is making her place in country music. She released her debut 6 song EP Perfect Timing in June, featuring the upbeat summer anthem “Top Off,” the timely worktape version of “One Day at a Time” release and the melodramatic “Flowers.” She celebrated with two sold-out album release shows in Nashville, TN and Orlando, FL. Reynolds hit the road in the fall for her headlining Nashville Hits The Roof tour at Tin Roof’s across the southeast. Charly played Country Thunder in Florida in October alongside Cody Johnson, Parker McCollum and JoDee Messina. Her version of “Neon Moon” was featured in the Season 5 finale of FOX’s provocative medical drama THE RESIDENT and recently released as a single in late October this year. Reynolds has performed alongside artists as Maddie & Tae, Walker Hayes, Lainey Wilson, Elle King and Brett Eldridge. In 2024 among 5 singles, she plans to release a full length album in the fall. She has an exclusive worldwide booking deal with Wasserman Music.
The Piedmont Boys w/ Addison Johnson
“Arguably the most underrated and overlooked band in the Outlaw country realm, if you like Whitey Morgan and artists of that ilk, and music that reminds you of Waylon and Merle, these guys must be in your rotation.” —- ‘Saving Country Music’ The Piedmont Boys started out in Greenville, SC over a decade ago by frontman Greg Payne. They’ve played thousands of shows, logged thousands of miles, released four albums, toured half the continental U.S., shared stages with everyone from HANK JR, Eric Church to Cody Jinks..hell, they’ve even played rodeos from Oregon to Texas. But wherever they go, the refrain of the fans who come up to them remains the same: “I never liked country music until I heard y’all.”What these folks must be talking about is the watered-down pop-country stuff you hear on the radio nowadays, because if you don’t like REAL country…Merle, Willie, Waylon, Johnny…you won’t like The Piedmont Boys.If you don’t like against-the-grain, outlaw brand, whiskey-soaked, blue-collar honky-tonk music, the kind where the volume and the energy are dead ringers for rock & roll but the sound is gritty hard-country, you won’t like The Piedmont Boys. If you don’t like a live show that’s pedal-to-the-floorboard, rock the place down to the dirt and drain every drop of sweat from every human being in the house, you won’t like The Piedmont Boys. If all that sounds good to ya, welcome aboard!! BIG THANKS to all our fans for listening!!
Noah Thompson (full band)
Granny bought me cigarettes when I was fifteen When rent came round and times got hard Daddy taught me how to clip the wings off some green Sometimes you gotta make your own light in the dark – “Upbringing” by Noah Thompson Hailing from the hollers of Eastern Kentucky, Noah Thompson learned early on that while life is tough, survival is even tougher. Growing up in a house where addiction was prevalent meant when it came to necessities, sometimes the ends didn’t always meet. Thompson spent his childhood learning survival and life skills while most others his age were more focused on the books. He did things with his parents that kids probably shouldn’t be doing but all of those experiences built the grit and resilience that is the cornerstone of who he is today. Life was precious, but life was a struggle. It wasn’t about learning the Golden Rule, it was about learning how to survive. It wasn’t the easiest situation or way of life to break free from but, with a combination of God-given talent and a little bit of luck, Thompson’s road is much brighter today than it was just a few short years ago. As tumultuous as his childhood home may have been, it was a house flush with music ranging from Ryan Adams to Zakk Wylde to Three Doors Down to David Gray. His love for music came from his father who bought Noah a guitar when he was just 13 years old.
