Growing up listening to everything from Hank Williams to Johnny Paycheck led him to fall in love with the soulful stories behind country music. The young artist quickly used these influences to find his fit in the genre. Read started performing in choirs and local bands at a young age\, and at age 22 he began performing locally as a solo artist. Overnight it seemed\, he had a dedicated fan base in his home state. As he continued to grow as an artist\, Read began writing in between performances. Putting personal experiences to paper came naturally\, “I really enjoy writing music simply because I believe I can connect with people… Words can’t describe the high you feel when someone says your music has gotten them through something. That alone is a greater honor than any dollar compensation\,” says Southall. Read wrote\, recorded\, and independently released his first album\, Six String Sorrow\, in 2015 and recently released Borrowed Time with his band. With overdriven guitars and heavy drums\, the Read Southall Band aims to deliver a rock and roll experience at every show. \nAbout Tyler Lance Walker Gill: \nListen | Watch Video \nTyler Lance Walker Gill is a country singer/songwriter from Bullitt County\, KY. Gill spent the Saturday nights of his childhood in a country music jamboree in Mt. Washington\, KY\, where his mother sang country classics with the house band. That’s when the honky tonk seed was planted deep in his brain\, almost certainly ruining his life forever. \nWay back in the year 2015\, Gill decided to try his hand at writing his own songs in the style of all his outlaw country heroes. Tyler has performed to sold out audiences with well-known artists\, including Jim James and Patrick Hallahan of My Morning Jacket\, Craig Pfunder of VHS or Beta\, Joan Shelley\, and Ben Sollee. He has opened for artists such as Shovels & Rope\, Mike & The Moonpies\, and even weirdos like Marc Rebillet. \nGill is currently in the post production phase of his first studio album. The twelve song record\, recorded at La La Land\, features a number of the region’s best musicians including Will Oldham (aka Bonnie “Prince” Billy) and 10-time IBMA Fiddle Player of the Year and Grammy nominated Michael Cleveland — with release date planned for early 2020. Tyler’s band\, the Wolfm’n features Chris Rodahaffer\, Jake Groves\, Sean Jennings\, Billy Lease\, and Christo Foros. \nGill is a talented singer and writer. However\, he won’t win the Pulitzer for poetry any time soon. Tyler writes drinkin’ songs for drinkin’ people. TLWG may not be the next Prine\, but he may be the next Gary Stewart. \nIf these were different times\, perhaps TLWG would already have a slew of hits all over the radio. Unfortunately\, the radio doesn’t play country music anymore. On the bright side\, who needs the radio now? Audiences are begging for authentic country music. That’s what Tyler Lance Walker Gill does\, and he will do so until it kills him. \nAbout Chris Jones & The Flycatchers: \nListen | Watch Video\n\nA little bit Rock N’ Roll\, a little bit Americana\, and a whole lot of damn good singer/songwriter material. Chris Jones and The Flycatchers are a fairly new band that has just begun to hit its stride both on stage and in the studio. Songs For Red\, the powerful debut album\, is comprised of ten tracks that will connect to a wide audience of music lovers. Lyrically\, Chris explores many aspects of life and tells stories that can be visualized with greater depth through the accompanying instrumentation.

SUMMARY:The Wood Brothers w/ Nicki Bluhm
DESCRIPTION:In a career chock full of highlights\, The Wood Brothers hold a special place in their hearts for their performances at Levon Helm’s legendary Midnight Ramble. As repeat special guests at Helm’s famed Woodstock barn\, the trio—guitarist Oliver Wood\, bassist Chris Wood\, and drummer Jano Rix— developed a cherished friendship with the late icon that transcended simple musical collaboration and left an indelible mark on their songs and their lives. That shared history made it all the more emo- tional when The Wood Brothers returned to the barn on August 19\, 2016\, for their first Ramble since Helm’s passing. Captured pristinely on their new album\, ‘Live At The Barn\,’ the band’s sold-out performance that night spanned their career and showcased the kind of singularly eclectic and electrifying performance style that’s earned them devoted legions of fans around the world. \n“We’re huge fans of Levon’s and count him as a big influence\,” says Oliver\, who named his son for Helm. “Since we actually got to know him\, his influence was more than musical—it was personal. He was one of those unique and powerful personalities\, and I’ll always remember how gracious he was. We also got to know his daughter Amy quite well and have had great tours and collaborations with her. She’s a beautiful soul just like her dad\, and we have fond memories of playing with both of them in that barn.” \nLive At The Barn follows 2015’s critically acclaimed Paradise\, which the band recorded at Dan Auerbach’s Easy Eye studio in their adopted hometown of Nashville\, TN. Hailed by Rolling Stone for songwriting “that hits both the heart and head” and praised by American Songwriter for its “spry\, soulful folk-rock\,” the album debuted at no. 1 on the Billboard Heatseekers Chart and launched The Wood Brothers into the most successful year of their career\, with performances everywhere from Bonnaroo to Red Rocks to Carnegie Hall. \nNPR’s World Cafe raved that “there is so much warmth\, soul and musicianship at a Wood Brothers show\, it’s no surprise that the band’s audience keeps growing\,” and Live At The Barn is no exception. Over the course of the album’s nine tracks\, the band careens from soul to folk to funk to blues to rock\, mixing acoustic and electric instruments and effortlessly blending eras and regions of American music. While the album documents their remarkably adventurous musicianship and tight interplay\, it also manages to capture their extraordinary relationship with their fans\, an essential ingredient in the magic of any Wood Brothers concert. On “I Got Loaded\,” the exuberant audience joins in a rousing call and response\, while the bluesy groove of “Tried And Tempted” elicits whoops and hollers from listeners overcome by the energy in the room. The Wood Brothers can effectively transform any venue into a revival tent with their exhilarating performances\, but there’s something singular about playing in that barn. \n“It’s so intimate and casual that it feels less like a concert and more like a living room jam\,” says Oliver. “The spirit in there is strong\, from the history and the intent that Levon had when he built the place to all the great music and musicians that have played there.” \nWith Live At The Barn\, The Wood Brothers weave their own little moment into the rich and ever expanding tapestry of Levon’s barn\, while at the same time tipping their cap to the influences that came before them. It’s only fitting\, then\, that the record ends with The Band’s “Ophelia\,” a mainstay of The Wood Brothers’ live show from a time well before any of them ever imagined performing\, let alone recording an album\, in such an historic space. \n“We’re just proud and honored and humbled that this album was made in the barn\,” says Oliver. “I’d like to think we’re part of the same lineage as The Band. We certainly draw from a lot of the same roots\, and they’ve always been an inspiration. Their music reminds us to be ourselves.” \n  \nAbout Nicki Bluhm \nCalifornia native Nicki Bluhm is a singer\, songwriter and performer. In 2008 Bluhm released her first album\, Toby’s Song and with its release put together her band The Gramblers. Nicki went on to release her second effort Driftwood (2012) establishing her and the band as a nationally touring act. While playing shows around the country she and the band decided to pass the time and long drives filming what became their viral “Van Sessions” covering nostalgic songs of their past. In the aftermath\, Bluhm and The Gramblers became headliners\, touring constantly throughout North America\, including festivals like Bonnaroo\, Outside Lands\, Newport Folk and Telluride Bluegrass. \nThe band continued to record and put out two albums including their self titled Nicki Bluhm and The Gramblers (2013) and their most recent effort Loved Wild Lost (2015)\, launching them on an extended US tour and their debut European tour. The Chicago Tribune wrote “Nicki has filled a void in music with her brand of vintage-tinged rocking country soul – music that’s like an enchanting friend you’ve known for a short while\, but feels like you’ve known forever.” \nAt the completion of their 2016 Loved Wild Lost tour\, Nicki was asked to join the The Infamous Stringdusters in support of their album Ladies and Gentlemen. That project led to a collaboration with Ryan Adams at Telluride Bluegrass\, Newport Folk and on Stephen Colbert’s The Late Show. Nicki has also had the honor of singing as a featured vocalist with musicians including Warren Haynes and Gov’t Mule\, Karl Denson\, Boz Scaggs\, Anders Osborne\, Bonnie Raitt\, Phil Lesh\, Jackie Green\, and many others. \nIn early 2017\, Nicki wrote a song called “Remember Love Wins”. She recorded and released it\, with an accompanying video\, in a seven-day burst of creative energy. It received a nod from Rolling Stone saying: “‘Remember Love Wins’\, like Pete Seeger singing ‘We Shall Overcome\,’ hits not just on the struggle ahead\, but our ability to eventually come out on the right side of history.” Also in 2017\, Nicki was also the voice of “Sarah” on the tender duet “No Wrong Way Home” in the short animated film Pearl\, which was nominated for an Oscar.  \nThe future holds new songs\, a new album and new shows. With no set release date yet\, you can look forward to catching an early glimpse of new material with Nicki and an acoustic guitar in venues across the country in early 2018.

SUMMARY:Echosmith w/ Banners\, The Score & Jena Rose
DESCRIPTION:Our dreams drive us. They’re why we build cities\, create art\, and pursue love.In 2013\, teenage siblings from Southern California\, ECHOSMITH\, brought a lifelong dream to fruition with the release of their debut albumTalking Dreams.As soon as they could hold instruments\, they began playing music together as kids. They traded the living room for Farmers Markets and open mic nights\, while quietly honing their songwriting chops. Those chops were on full-display in the breakout single “Cool Kids\,” which became a runaway success. Supporting Talking Dreams\, they performed around the globe and enchanted audiences everywhere. As those adventures unfolded\, they grew up\, both as people and musicians\, and that growth shines through their 2017 sophomore album\,Inside A Dream[Warner Bros. Records].“We describe our new album as dreamy pop\,” explains frontwoman Sydney. “These songs explore different aspects of our lives—love\, adventure\, heartache\, and living out our dreams. On our first record\, we were simply dreaming of the future\,andwe’re inside of that dreamnow. We’ve lived so much life in a short period of time. I was 15 when we recorded Talking Dreams\, and now I’m 20. This amazing journey of connecting with fans and different cultures allover the world completelychanged our lives.”Driven bySydney Sierota\, Noah Sierota [bass\, percussion\, backing vocals]\, Graham Sierota [drums]\, and Jamie Sierota [guitar]\,Talking Dreams earned a prestigious RIAA gold certification\,yieldingthe double-platinum breakout smash “Cool Kids\,” which notched a quarter-of-a-billion Spotify streams\, and the platinum-certified “Bright.”They took over radio airwaves and performed across television everywhere from Ellen to The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallontwice. Meanwhile\, tastemaker praise came courtesy of Elle\, Rolling Stone\, Nylon\, and more. Simultaneously\, Sydney stood out as a positive cultural force\, whether acting as a brand ambassador for Coach\, designing a line for Hollister\, or dueting on stage with Taylor Swift.Along the way\, the band faced a major change together.After bringing their dream to life\, co-founder\, guitarist\, and big brother Jamie left ECHOSMITH\, transitioning focus to his wife and newborn baby.“We had to come to grips with thefact that Jamie left the band\, so we had to find ourselves as a trio instead of a quartet\,” admits Noah. “The process helped us recognizewhat we really wanted to do musically.”“At that point\, we never had another musician on stage with us\,” says the frontwoman. “Thatliterally forced us on a journey of having to discover thissound. We still had electric guitars\, but they weren’t the center of the music anymore. The keyboards\, pads\, percussion\, and vocals became the focal point. We began recording and writingconstantly at the same time.We wanted to write as honestly as possible. There were no narratives; it was all life experiences and truth.”In order to bring that vision to life\, the group utilized vintage synths\, keys\, and drum machines\, carefully emphasizing each detail and “making sure we loved every single note and sound.” \nAs a result\, Inside A Dreamis awash in shimmering synths\, airy guitars\, and heavenly vocals. Its eleven anthems wouldn’t be out of place blasting from an eighties transistor radio during an episode Stranger Thingsor booming across massive North American festival grounds as the sun sets for a headline gig. “Inside a dreamis the culmination of a year-and-a-half of tirelessly working to define who we are\,” continues Noah. “We not only grew asmusicians but aspeople. The stories we’ve told on this album are our stories that we’re living right now.”Noah’s finger-picked acoustic guitar on“Goodbye” entwines with Sydney’s breathy delivery before bouncing into a danceable refraincolored by island-style keys and heavy bass. It also represents another evolution.“This song was written out of pure frustration with another person who couldn’t makeup hismind\,” reveals Sydney. “That indecision was affecting us\, so the message is\, ‘Good luck finding yourself. Goodbye. I have to move on with my life regardless of your opinion.’ It’s a bit darker for us\, but I think a lot of people can relate to that.”Co-written with an old family friend Leah Haywood\, opener “Get Into My Car” gleefully nods to new wave influences like The Cure and Joy Division with its cinematic lyricism\, shiny keyboards\, and lush refrain\, “Get into my car. Get into my life. Get into my heart. You know what I like.”“It talks about how sometimes you have negative voices in your head\, but then you find that person who makes them go away\,” she says. “That’s totally happening in my relationship.”For “Crazy Love\,” they teamed up with a longtime inspiration\, OneRepublic’s RyanTedder\,to make a love song about “what it feels like to be in the crazy exciting love where you get to dance together and do things you see in the movies.”The arena-size drums of “Future Me” propel the equivalent of the grade school exercise of writing a letter to your future self.“Everyone Cries” tackles the craziness of the world head-on.At the heart of the record\, ECHOSMITH cling to the message that drove them from the start which is their mission statement “to spread hope and love through music to the whole world.”“Music is one ofthe few things that can unite people\,” concludes Noah. “We hope that’s something we can be a part of.”“We’ve really gotten to understand the depth of that mission statement\,” Sydney leaves off. “We were so blessed for ‘Cool Kids’ to blow up and see theworld. We got to realize the depth of spreading love\, how important it actually is\, and the lack of love in the world. Our message has stayed the same\, but we understand it more. We go deeper. Life is hard\, but you can find the joy no matter what. That’s what we’re here to show people.”In the end\, Inside A Dreamhas the power to motivate millions to follow their own dreams as ECHOSMITH did.

SUMMARY:Judah And The Lion w/ Tall Heights & Colony House
DESCRIPTION:Years before forming one of Nashville’s most genre-bending bands\, the membersof Judah & the Lion grew up in separate corners of the U.S.\, listening to everytype of music that came their way. They loved it all: the twang of folk\, the beat ofhip-hop\, the drive of rock & roll\, the punch of pop. Later\, after college brought allfour musicians to Tennessee\, it only made sense to combine those differentbackgrounds —and different sounds —together.With their second full-length albumFolk Hop N Roll\, the guys shine a light on theplace where their influences overlap. It’s a wide-ranging sound\, with fuzz bass\,hip-hop percussion\, distorted banjo riffs\, and super-sized melodies all stirred intothe same mixing pot.”There’s no boundaries\,” says front man Judah Akers\, who shares the band’slineup with drummer Spencer Cross\, mandolin player Brian Macdonald\, andbanjo wiz Nate Zuercher. “We wanted to make something raw\, something withattitude. We all grew up loving these hip-hop beats\, sowhy not make an albumthat has the grit of Run DMC or Beastie Boys\, along with all the folk instrumentsthat we play?”Like Kids These Days—the band’s debut record\, which climbed to number fouron the Billboard Folk Chart and number two on the genre-wide Heatseekerschart after its release in September 2014 —Folk Hop N Rollwas produced byaward winner Dave Cobb (Jason Isbell\, Sturgill Simpson\, Chris Stapleton). Cobbcaptured the band’s new songs in a series of quick\, inspired takes\, aiming forperformances that sounded real and raw rather than polished and perfect.Everything was done in just two weeks. The goal was to fuel the album with thesame electricity that fills the band’s live show.An independent band whose success has arrived not on the back of some bigbudgetmajor label\, but through the band’s own touring\, Judah & the Lion havebuilt a large\, loyal fanbase on the road. They played 150 shows in 2015 alone\,stretching their gigs all across America and Scandinavia. Along the way\, theyshared stages with artists like Mat Kearney\, Drew Holcomb\, and Ben Rector.That sort ofdrive —the commitment to chasing down their dreams\, one encoreat a time —also fuels the lyrics that appear on Folk Hop N Roll\, a record whosesongs spin stories of struggle\, triumph\, and all points in between.”This record was made for the live show\,” Akers promises. “Our shows are allabout the experience we share with our fans. We know that people workeveryday jobs or go to school\, and they’re dealing with life\, and yet they’re stillchoosing to spend the night with us. We don’t take that lightly. We give them anexperience. We throw an absolute rage. And all the songs were made with that inmind. They’re fun\, carefree\, and youthful\, and we live our lives that way\, too.”Anthemic and wildly creative\, Folk Hop N Rollis unlike anything else in modernmusic. It’s a rule-breaking record\, with Judah & the Lion creating a sound thatbelongs entirely to them. From the earthy stomp of roots music to the boldbounce of hip-hop\, Folk Hop N Rollcasts a wide net\, proof that Judah & the Lion—who are now four releases into their career —have developed quite the roar.Judah & the Lion followed the release of Folk Hop N Roll with a massive tour spanning most of 2016. Late in the year\, after being named iHeartRadio’s Artist on the Verge\, their single “Take It All Back” began to climb the ranks at Alternative Radio\, eventually culminating in a three week stint in the #1 spot to kick off 2017. In tandem with their first #1 song\, Judah &the Lion also kicked off a tour as support for Twenty One Pilots which brought them to arenas all across the US.  \nInspired by how their genre-blending style was connecting with fans\, Judah & the Lion headed back into the studio in early 2017 to record 4 brand new songs dubbedthe Going to Mars Collection\, which\, when combined with Folk Hop N Roll\,make up Folk Hop N Roll Deluxe. In support of the Deluxe Edition\, the band embarked on The Going to Mars Tour this Spring and Fall –taking them on their biggest headlining run to date. In between\, they hit the road for select dates with Kaleo and hit amphitheaters this summer with Jimmy Eat World and Incubus. The rebooted version of the album includes the band’s follow up to “Take It All Back\,” the equally high energy and anthemic “Suit and Jacket” which debuted on Jimmy Kimmel Live! this September and is currently Top 5 at Alternative Radio. With no intention of slowing down anytime soon\, Judah & the Lion will embark onyet another massive headlining run in 2018!

SUMMARY:Walk The Moon w/ Company of Thieves
DESCRIPTION:“It’s okay to play\,” insists Nicholas Petricca\, lead singer\, songwriter\, and keyboardist of Ohio quartet Walk the Moon. It’s a hard point to argue after a listen to the lead single off their album I Want! I Want!\, dance-rock extravaganza “Anna Sun.” I Want! I Want! has you dancing quick. Very quick. So it is no surprise that the response to the band has been just as immediate. Surrounding a reactive SXSW appearance\, the band has already been featured as Nylon Magazine’s Band Crush\, as a Hot New Band by SPIN Magazine\, as a New York Post band “You Must Know\,” and in the Spotlight of Last Call with Carson Daly. Walk the Moon is poised for an explosive rise. \nWalk the Moon shows are nothing short of electric. Petricca\, with bassist Kevin Ray\, guitarist Eli Maiman and drummer Sean Waugaman\, (all Ohio natives) streak\, dot and smear their faces in paint before every performance. Eager crowds predictably join in the fun and by the end\, even the most staunch skeptics are in the colorful mix. Respected regulars in the Cincinnati and Columbus club scenes\, the boys\, all in their early twenties\, have garnered notable respect from fans and bands alike in their first few ventures to major markets. Walk the Moon combine impressive musicianship with what the New York Post deems their “unrestrainable love for performing.” It is a truly contagious mix.  \nMatching what NME’s Jaimie Hodgson called “air strike choruses” with careful songwriting\, Walk the Moon are dynamic – noticeably more than a “buzz band.” They cite Talking Heads\, The Police and The Killers as inspiration\, both in writing and performing\, not to mention a tribute to Bowie with a thumping rendition of “Let’s Dance.” I Want! I Want! is thoughtful and youthful at once\, a perfect reflection of the band. Walk the Moon may very soon grow out of the clubs they play now (they’ve already sold out in advance of their first headlining New York show)\, but they are a band you don’t want to grow up all the way. After all\, they possess an enviable spirit\, one devoted to just plain having fun. And who doesn’t like fun?

SUMMARY:Greensky Bluegrass w/ Billy Strings
DESCRIPTION:Greensky Bluegrass is Anders Beck (dobro)\, Michael Arlen Bont (banjo)\, Dave Bruzza (guitar)\, Mike Devol (upright bass) and Paul Hoffman (mandolin). \nFor more than a decade and a half\, the members of Greensky Bluegrass have created their own version of bluegrass music\, mixing the acoustic stomp of a stringband with the rule-breaking spirit of rock & roll. They redefine that sound once again with their sixth album\, Shouted\, Written Down & Quoted. \nLike the band’s own name\, Shouted\, Written Down & Quoted is a collection of opposites\, full of dark psychedelic swirls\, bright bursts of acoustic guitar\, soundscapes\, solos\, freethinking improvisation\, and plenty of sharp\, focused songwriting. It’s wild and wide-ranging\, showing off the diversity Greensky Bluegrass brings to every live show. At the same time\, Shouted\, Written Down & Quoted is unmistakably a studio album\, recorded during two different sessions — one at Echo Mountain Studio in Asheville\, North Carolina; the other at the Mountain House Recording Studio in Nedarland\, Colorado — that comprise the band’s longest block of recording time ever. The result is an 11-track album whose songs cast a wide net\, mixing the full-throttle energy of a Greensky Bluegrass concert with the nuanced approach of a band that’s still eager to explore. \n“You can call us an acoustic ensemble\, or a drum-less rock band\, or a rock & roll bluegrass band\,” says mandolin player Paul Hoffman\, who\, along with guitarist Dave Bruzza\, handles most of the album’s writing duties. “All of that shifting identity has taught us to cover a lot of ground. There’s a flow to this album\, just like there’s a flow to our setlists. There are some aggressive\, rocking moments. Some bouncy\, funky moments. An acoustic think piece or two. It’s a balance of moods and textures that we create as a band\, almost like a mix tape.” \nFormed in 2000 in Kalamazoo\, Michigan\, Greensky Bluegrass kicked off their career playing living rooms and open mic nights across the Midwest. By 2005\, they were touring nationally\, and by 2006\, they were playing the first in a long series of appearances at the annual Telluride Bluegrass Festival. Bandmates Hoffman\, Bruzza\, dobro player Anders Beck\, banjoist Michael Arlen Bont\, and upright bassist Mike Devol spent most of the following decade on the road\, fine-tuning a live show modeled not after the toned-down production of traditional bluegrass music\, but the full-on spectacle of rock. \n“We play two sets of music every night with a big light show\, and really care about creating a large scale production\,” notes Bruzza\, adding that\, “the goal isn’t just to play important music. We want to cultivate an experience\, where people can escape from their everyday lives for a minute and put their worries aside.” \nPlaying as many as 175 shows per year\, Greensky Bluegrass have graduated to headlining status at some of the country’s most iconic venues\, selling out amphitheaters like Red Rocks and world-class auditoriums like the Ryman. They’ve become a regular name on the festival circuit\, too\, adding Bonnaroo\, the New Orleans Jazz Festival\, Austin City Limits\, Forecastle\, and Outside Lands to their touring schedule. Supported by a grassroots audience whose members often travel for hours to see the band\, Greensky Bluegrass are still a proudly independent act\, enjoying the success of a major-label act — including a Number One debut on the Billboard Bluegrass chart for their fifth album\, 2014’s If Sorrows Swim — without giving up complete control of their own business. \nReleased on the band’s label\, Big Blue Zoo\, Shouted\, Written Down & Quoted kicks off with “Miss September\,” a song that splits its focus between Hoffman’s mid-tempo melodies and the band’s instrumental solos. Most of the album’s tracks strike a similar balance\, showcasing a group whose vocal hooks and flat-picking skills share the spotlight equally. Meanwhile\, the guys stretch their legs on “Living Over” — an improvised\, seven-minute knockout that’s already become a live staple — and show surprising restraint with “While Waiting\,” a slower song whose ebb-and-flow arrangement often finds no more than two bandmates playing at once. “Room Without a Roof” features some of the group’s most layered production to date\, with electric instruments adding some thick sonic padding\, while “More of Me” cranks up the drama\, with Hoffman singing about heartache over a bed of minor-key guitar arpeggios. \n“We tend to have a darker sense to ours songs than most acoustic bands\,” Bruzza adds\, “but we still have light moments\, too. We’re trying to explore the textures and sounds we can make\, while still having the instrumentation of a bluegrass band. There aren’t many rules. We’ll run a dobro though an amp on a song like ‘Past My Prime.’ We can get pretty epic. This album is a crazy carnival one minute\, and it’s a psychedelic Pink Floyd jam the next.” \nEqual parts dark\, driving\, and dynamic\, Shouted\, Written Down & Quoted is Greensky Bluegrass at their best\, fusing the fiery fretwork of their live shows with the focus of a true songwriting outfit.

SUMMARY:Kate Voegele & Tyler Hilton
DESCRIPTION:KATE VOEGELE \nHailing from a little suburb of Cleveland\, Ohio\, Kate Voegele first picked up a guitar at age 15. Influenced by the rock and roll history of the city and her father’s songwriting\, she began to pen her own songs from the minute she learned to play her first three chords. Voegele embraced this newfound passion\, recording her first EP during her freshman year of high school\, and soon after landed gigs alongside artists like Counting Crows and John Mayer. Those shows quickly led to attention from labels in New York and LA\, and Kate spent the majority of her high school years diving headfirst into a career in music.  \nAfter high school\, Voegele decided to attend Ohio’s Miami University\, where she quickly found new inspiration\, and simultaneously found herself uploading song after song to her MySpace page. Kate managed to get the attention of the social network’s founder\, Tom Anderson\, and just a few weeks later\, she became MySpace Records’ first signed artist. In spring of 2007 Voegele finished recording her first full-length record with Marshall Altman in LA and decided to swap her text books in for a tour bus and a year full of shows throughout the US. \nOver the next couple of years Voegele toured the country playing hundreds of shows. While traveling through LA\, Kate auditioned on a whim and would eventually land the role of Mia Catalano on the CW show\, “One Tree Hill.” What was supposed to be a two-episode run became a four-season recurrence\, and Kate found herself performing eleven of her original songs to millions of viewers over the course of the show. Record sales jumped dramatically after Voegele’s first appearance on the show\, and she was subsequently upstreamed to Interscope Records in January of 2008. At this point Kate toured internationally with artists like Natasha Bedingfield and Jordin Sparks. She split her time between the road and the television set\, and released a second full-length\, “A Fine Mess\,” in spring of 2009.  \nAfter her first two records sold over 500\,000 units\, Voegele signed with ATO Records in 2011\, releasing “Gravity Happens.” She spent the next two years continuing to tour the US and Europe\, writing new songs from airplane window seats and ultimately embarking on a new chapter in her life. \nIn fall of 2013\, Voegele moved her home base from LA to Nashville\, getting back to her songwriter roots. Being in Music City has given Kate the opportunity to work with writers like Nathan Chapman and Liz Rose\, and open up opportunities to work with the country’s best creative talents. With over a dozen new songs in tow\, Voegele is planning an EP in for late fall ’14\, followed by her fourth full-length album slated for next spring. \n  \nTYLER HILTON \nSinger songwriter and actor Tyler Hilton is a true crossover success story. He began his musical career at the age of eighteen after singing Johnny Lang’s “Breakin’ Me” over the phone to a pair of KLOS DJs. His voice caught the ear of Maverick Records\, and was signed immediately. After the release of his wildly successful first album “The Tracks Of Tyler Hilton”\, Hilton began his career in film. After musical appearances on One Tree Hill\, Tyler had a stint playing Chris Keller on the show. After One Tree Hill he appeared in the dark comedy “Charlie Bartlett\,” and symbolically played the part of a young Elvis Presley in the academy award winning “Walk The Line”.
