Kindred The Family Soul is simply Aja Graydon and Fatin Dantzler; artists, songwriters, lovers, family. Both got their start as teenagers with Fatin producing his first released material with Bell Biv Devoe at 17 and Aja receiving her first recording contract from Delicious Vinyl at 14. In 1997 they were introduced via hip hop band, The Roots, production camp. Fatin, a hired gun to write songs for Aja’s solo project at the time. By the fall of 1998, they became husband and wife and while assuming the roles of a new couple and new parents, Fatin took a job selling appliances and Aja became a homemaker caring for their first-born, Aquil. After being unexpectedly let go from his job the couple contemplated the future. They&#8217;d developed a strong creative chemistry for Aja’s solo project so they decided to try performing as a team. Kindred The Family Soul was born.
Performing weekly at the famed “Black Lily” showcase at a small club called The Five Spot, Kindred developed a reputation for electric live performances. Hustling parents of a toddler by day and ripping stages by night. This amazing event would, along with Kindred, help foster the careers of Jazmine Sullivan, Floetry, Jaguar Wright, Musiq Soulchild and a host of others. A regular patron/performer at the Lily was Jill Scott. She was close to releasing her classic first album and decided to introduce the president of her then label, Hidden Beach, to her friends Aja and Fatin. This introduction would change everything.
In 2003 Kindred The Family Soul released their debut album Surrender to Love. “ Far Away” and “Stars” both became top ten urban adult contemporary hits and anthems for lovers everywhere. The album received a Soul Train Award and a BET Award nomination. The group began producing events and showcasing new talent as well. One such event was “The Upper Room” featuring a then unknown, John Legend and Jazmine Sullivan. All while also welcoming their 2nd child Diya into the world.
Their sophomore album, In this Life Together was released in 2005. The project&#8217;s lead Single “Where Would I Be (The Question)” was a wonderful follow-up, reaching the Top 10 on Urban AC Radio and also boasted the crowd favorite, “Woman First,” an anthem addressing the sacrifices of women for their family and relationships. This album solidified Kindred The Family Soul as a voice for families and couples, presenting a needed image of “Black Love” in an industry that rarely highlights it. Just prior to its release they would welcome their 3rd child, Nina.
The third album, The Arrival, was released in 2008. Singles like “House of Love” and “Just the Way You Are” continued the tradition of celebrating love and fortitude. Kindred began producing their own music videos and both songs were known for their touching visual stories. Both were mainstays on VH1 Soul and Centric. The title,“The Arrival” was a nod to the birth of the couples set of twin girls, Lanaa and Ain.
2009 was a year of change. The first Black President was in the midst of his first term, the country was in a financial slump and the group &#8211; despite three charting albums &#8211; found itself without a label deal. Kindred The Family Soul began documenting their journey through this climate of change in a web series called “Six Is It!”, named jokingly about expecting their sixth and final child, Deen.
In 2011 they released their first album with Purpose/Shanachie records, Love Has No Recession, an album detailing triumph over adversity and the enduring power of love. Critically acclaimed and compared in intent to the Marvin Gaye classic, “What&#8217;s Going On?,” the album featured the single&#8221;Magic,” and &#8220;You Got Love,” a surprising collaboration with Snoop Dogg, offering a sixteen bar verse about his love for his wife. The group also founded a media company, The Media Shack and produced 5 music videos for the album.
In 2013 Kindred digitally released a live album to celebrate the 10th anniversary of their debut Surrender To Love. It was a rare early recording of the group live in London performing every song on the then-just-released album.
Their fifth album, simply called “A Couple Friends” was released in 2014. Kindred along with Shanachie Records produced a short film directed by Jamal Hill, to accompany this album. The film follows the story of couples connected to Kindred The Family Soul and how they move through their challenges, with love and friendship as the anchor. The group also wrote their first children&#8217;s book, “Mama said, “Clean Up!”” based on a freestyle song performed by their children and featured on the album. 2014 also ushered in a commitment to community with the couple producing two annual events in their hometown of Philadelphia: Kindred The Family Games and Kindred The Family Reunion, both free to the public.
In Spring of 2015, they received an opportunity to be a part of a national commercial for Walmart. Highlighting the culture of the family reunion, Kindred The Family Soul and all six of their children were featured in the summer-long campaign. The commercial received over a million hits on YouTube and is still one of the most viewed ads ever produced by the retail giant.
Kindred released their 6th studio album, Legacy of Love, in August of 2016. The lead single hit Number-One on Soul charts in the UK as well as Top-40 on the AC Charts Stateside. Considered timely and much-needed, ”All my People” paints a vision of equality, peace and unity. In March 2017 the group started producing a web-based conversation /performance series called “Kindred Presents,” featuring artists, cultural icons, actors and other creatives.
Auntie &amp; Unc, their seventh full album dropped in 2021. Kindred explains, &#8220;Auntie &amp; Unc is a bit of a manifesto. A declarative statement of two black people who have loved and worked together for two decades. We are OG&#8217;s in this Black Love conversation and we have wisdom to share, but we embrace that life is an ever-teaching state of mind.&#8221;
2024 is off to a busy start for Kindred with the 20th anniversary re-release of their single “Surrender To Love,” with extensive touring planned to continue promoting not only their catalog of hits but also Black Love.

<h3>Jeremy Pennell</h3>
When Jeremy Pinnell released OH/KY in the summer of 2015 to stunned acclaim, it felt like an entire career compressed into one knock-out album. Hailed as, a “Mind-blowingly good” (Greg Vandy/KEXP) “ ”tutorial on classic country music” (Popmatters), Pinnell’s debut immediately differentiated as authentic and unflinching. Dogged touring through Europe and the States and celebrated radio sessions followed, cementing Pinnell’s position as a no-fuss master of his craft.
His 2017 album, Ties of Blood and Affection presented a canny lateral move. Instead of doubling down on the stark themes and values of his debut, the sophomore album found Pinnell finding comfort in his own skin, achieving the redemption only hinted at in his previous batch of haunted songs.
If the third time’s a charm, Pinnell is all shine and sparkle on Goodbye LA. Produced by Texan Jonathan Tyler, the tunes buff the wax and polish the chrome on Country music’s deeper roots. Rooted in his steady acoustic guitar, Pinnell’s songs are shot through with honest and classic elements. The rhythm section, all snap and shuffle, finds purpose in well-worn paths. The pedal steel and Telecaster stingers arrive perfectly on cue, winking at JP’s world-wise couplets. Here slippery organ insinuates gospel into the conversation. You can feel the room breathe and get a sense of these musicians eyeballing each other as their performances are committed to tape. And through it all comes this oaken identity, the devastating centerpiece of his work. Honest and careworn, Jeremy’s voice can touch on wry, jubilant, and debauched &#8211; all in a single line. At his best, Jeremy Pinnell chronicles the joy and sorrow of being human, which is the best that anyone could do.

<h3>Summer Dean</h3>
Summer Dean puts on a hell of a show. Armed with three albums, constant tours, and a hot five-piece band behind her, Summer struts onto every stage with the confidence and vulnerability of a songstress that has cemented her place among the top-rank Texas tunesmiths. Her live show takes the concert goer on a ride through heartache and hope as though her songs came from inside the chest of every person in the room. Whether with her full band or all by herself, listeners and watchers are bound to fall in love watching the authentic, funny, and honest storyteller perform her way into legendary status.
Dean has been steadily gaining momentum since the release of her break-out 2021 LP Bad Romantic. Critics hailed Romantic, with Texas Monthly saying Dean showed “deft skill at disarming listeners with her vulnerability,” while the Boot said Dean “spins vibrant tales of her blue-collar life, turning life’s ordinary moments into extraordinary ones.”
Dean was also just named the Texas Country Music Awards Female Artist of the Year and 2023 Ameripolitan Honky Tonk Female of the Year. She’s performed with an array of country aces, including Colter Wall, Marty Stuart, Asleep at the Wheel, Hayes Carll, Mike and the Moonpies and Charley Crockett.
Dean’s devotion to honesty in the making of The Biggest Life extended to its creation, with these 13 songs being recorded completely analog at the Bunker, Robison’s Lockhart studio, with a hand-picked band of collaborators. It’s a fitting approach for music that leaves nowhere to hide and spares no detail.

“Right place, right time-mullets and tight jeans!” Get ready to ride. Everybody loves a comeback and the resurgence of the 90’s country would not be complete without McBride &amp; The Ride triumphantly bursting back onto the scene. The original line up of Ray Herndon (vocals/guitar), Terry McBride (vocals/bass) and Billy Thomas (vocals/drums) have been in the studio recording new music and will take the stage to introduce fans to the new songs as well as delight them with the classics
The brainchild of legendary producer Tony Brown, then head of MCA Records, Brown made the introductions and the magic started happening right from their very first rehearsal. “Tony put the three of us together but had no idea that the harmony would be what it is. That was a surprise to all of us,” Herndon recalls of that first breathtaking blending of their voices.
The band garnered ACM and CMA nominations and released three acclaimed albums on MCA Records, Burnin’ Up The Road, Sacred Ground, and Hurry Sundown, spawning hit singles like &#8220;Love on the Loose, Heart on the Run,&#8221; “Sacred Ground,” &#8220;Going Out of My Mind,&#8221; “Just One Night.” Ultimately the band would produce 11 hits on the Billboard Country charts, including 5 Top-Five, before ​disbanding.
Over the last two decades, the three principles have thrived in their individual careers. Herndon has been Lyle Lovett’s lead guitarist since 1985 and has had songs cut by Kenny Chesney, Aaron Tippin, Lee Greenwood, Linda Davis and more. He continues to operate his family’s historic club, Handlebar J, in Scottsdale, Arizona.
McBride has had his songs recorded over 100 times, writing hits for Brooks &amp; Dunn, Reba McEntire, Easton Corbin, Cody Johnson and more. He toured with Brooks &amp; Dunn through most of their biggest years playing bass and writing songs.
Thomas moved to Nashville from Los Angeles in 1987 and immediately started working with Vince Gill along with many other country stars (Emmylou Harris, Patty Loveless, Steve Wariner &amp; Earl Scruggs). He’s continued as Gill’s singing drummer on the road and in the studio ever since, adding background vocals to many of his hits. In 2010 Thomas joined the Grammy-nominated Western Swing band, The Time Jumpers. You can catch him most Monday nights with them in Music City.
In 2023 the guys reunited to cut the EP Marlboros &amp; Avon, their first new music in nearly 30 years. The trio agrees that one of the most exciting parts of their relaunch is that they will be able to share their music with a whole new generation of country fans. “I believe we can be terrific ambassadors for that period of country music while again making an impact on the format,” Thomas shares. Much like neon, real country music, and denim-everything, the 90s are back. “It’s always been easy making music with Ray and Terry. Times have changed, but our fans haven’t. I still run into folks who caught our live show back in the 90s and rave about their experiences. I’m excited to ride again!”

Grand Ole Opry member Mandy Barnett, one of Nashville’s musical treasures who has showcased her mesmerizing voice on stages across the globe, started singing at 5 years old. She has been singing since.
Barnett’s Style is rooted in classic Country and Pop crooning of iconic singers and timeless sounds. She delves into a song with keen interpretive sense, getting right down to its emotional core and rendering a powerful performance through her “pipes of steel” (Los Angeles Times). As one record executive put it, “Mandy Barnett is a song’s best friend.”
She first gained national prominence as the original star of one of the first “jukebox” musicals, Always…Patsy Cline at Nashville’s famed Ryman Auditorium. Barnett, as Cline, performs on the original cast soundtrack album and is the only actress to have played the role on the historic Ryman stage where Cline’s legend began. These shows sold out nightly and received rave reviews.
Mandy’s critically lauded albums include I’ve Got a Right to Cry, named “Top Country Album” by Rolling Stone in the year of its release and produced by renowned Nashville Sound pioneer Owen Bradley (who also produced Loretta Lynn, Benda Lee and k.d. lang). Rolling Stone continued to honor this album, placing it in 2019 on two “Best Of” lists of seminal Country work.
With a string of acclaimed Country albums, such as her self-titled Warner Bros. debut, her Christmas celebration Winter Wonderland, the Cline-inspired Sweet Dreams and I Can’t Stop Loving You: The Songs of Don Gibson, there’s no doubt Barnett has mastered that genre and holds it dear to her heart. But Barnett is not one to be musically boxed in. Her 2018 Strange Conversation album, an Americana blend of roots, pop and R&amp;B, includes a duet with John Hiatt and a soulful rendition of Neil Sedaka’s “My World Keeps Slipping Away” which Sedaka himself sent to Mandy to record. Hailed by AllMusic as the “richest record of her career” and the Philadelphia Inquirer listed Strange Conversations among the best Country/Roots albums of 2018.
As further testament to her diversity, Barnett sang on the SpongeBob SquarePants album, The Best Day Ever (sharing the spotlight with a disparate array of artists including Brian Wilson, Tommy Ramone and Flaco Jimenez) and often incorporates a Great American Songbook standard into her live shows. When asked about her favorite composer, Barnett’s as likely to cite Cole Porter or George Gershwin as she is Willy Nelson or Dolly Parton.
In fact, along the lines of highlighting Barnett’s range. Her 2020 album A Nashville Songbook, an album of multi-generational Pop and Country gems produced by Fred Mollin (Johnny Matthis, Kris Kristofferson, Jimmy Webb, etc), was inspired by Barnett’s popular “Nashville Songbook” live show. 
Every Star Above, Barnett’s most recent album (also produced by Mollin), celebrates and reworks selections from Billie Holiday’s Lady In Satin, with original arrangements by the late legend Sammy Nestico. Variety magazine named Every Star Above one of the best albums of 2021.
Barnett is equally as comfortable on the Grand Ole Opry and stages with symphony orchestras, having recently performed solo concerts with the Nashville Symphony, the Detroit Symphony Orchestra, and the Ulster Orchestra in Belfast highlighting her “Nashville Songbook” repertoire. Barnett made her New York City cabaret debut at Feinstein’s/54 Below in 2019 with an acoustic version of her “Nashville Songbook.”
Barnett’s music has been featured in many major film and television soundtracks (most recently, in The CW Network’s series “The Flash”), including projects starring Clint Eastwood, Tommy Lee Jones, Martin Sheen, Reese Witherspoon, Matthew Broderick, Sigourney Weaver, Ellen Burstyn and Bill Paxton. Besides soundtrack work, Barnett often contributes tracks to other types of musical compilations, and she has appeared on “The Tonight Show,” “The Late Show,” “CBS Sunday Morning,” PBS’s “Sessions at West 54th,” PBS’s “Bluegrass Underground,” and numerous other programs.
In 2020, Barnett came full circle with her East Tennessee roots. She joined a select group of music luminaries running the gamut from Johnny Cash to Taylor Swift in being honored by the Tennessee Department of Tourist Development with a Tennessee Music Pathways marker. Erected in Barnett’s hometown, Crossville, the historic marker celebrates Barnett’s contributions in making Tennessee the “Soundtrack of America.”

From her home base in Boston, Lori McKenna has carved out an enviable niche for herself as one of Nashville&#8217;s most in-demand songwriters while maintaining a prolific and remarkably consistent career as a solo artist. By the time her songwriting took off in 2005, she had already released four strong independent albums of warmly crafted folk and Americana music, and as she began to rack up writing credits with country stars like Faith Hill, Carrie Underwood, and Keith Urban, fans found out about her own records.
Continuing into the 2010s, McKenna became a well-established, award-winning songwriter with several big hits under her belt including Tim McGraw&#8217;s &#8220;Humble and Kind&#8221; and Little Big Town&#8217;s &#8220;Girl Crush.&#8221; Starting with 2016&#8217;s The Bird &amp; the Rifle, she began a three-album collaboration with producer Dave Cobb that resulted in her first Grammy nomination for one of her albums. After releasing 2020&#8217;s The Balladeer, McKenna shifted her focus to a series of EPs and collaborative singles.
McKenna was raised in a musical family and wrote her first songs as a teenager, though it wasn&#8217;t until her late twenties that she began performing on Boston&#8217;s folk circuit. After releasing her debut, Paper Wings and Halo, in 2000, she signed with indie Signature Sounds and released three more albums over the next four years, including 2004&#8217;s acclaimed Bittertown. While her reputation as a quality songsmith had already netted her a publishing deal with Nashville&#8217;s Harlan Howard Music, her fortunes changed dramatically when country star Faith Hill covered three of McKenna&#8217;s songs on her 2005 album Fireflies. Hill&#8217;s album topped both the country and pop charts, and the increased exposure soon earned McKenna a record deal with Warner Bros., which reissued Bittertown later that year.
While the Warner deal would only yield one new album in 2007&#8217;s Unglamorous, Universal Music signed McKenna to a publishing deal the following year, and by the decade&#8217;s end, other major artists like Tim McGraw, Mandy Moore, and Vance Gilbert had recorded her songs. In addition to her successes as a songwriter, McKenna continued to record her own albums, earning acclaim for releases like Lorraine (2011), Massachusetts (2013), and Numbered Doors (2014).
As a songwriter, she remained in high demand, writing for Keith Urban, Hunter Hayes, Alison Krauss, and Little Big Town, among many others. Several of her songs proved to be major hits, with Hayes&#8217; &#8220;I Want Crazy&#8221; topping Billboard&#8217;s pop chart and Little Big Town&#8217;s country smash &#8220;Girl Crush&#8221; earning McKenna her first Grammy and CMA awards. Throughout her career, she has continued to call Boston home, commuting to and from Nashville to write and collaborate while choosing to live outside of Music City&#8217;s bubble.
After signing a new deal with Creative Nation in 2015, she hooked up with Nashville maverick Dave Cobb, whose organic production style has been parlayed into critically lauded albums by artists like Sturgill Simpson and Jason Isbell. The result was 2016&#8217;s more intimate The Bird &amp; the Rifle, which featured her own version of &#8220;Humble and Kind,&#8221; a country hit she&#8217;d provided to Tim McGraw earlier in the year. McGraw&#8217;s version also helped her earn a second consecutive CMA award for Song of the Year.
In 2018, she once again paired with Cobb for The Tree, a tonally similar outing that featured her son, Christopher McKenna, playing Mellotron on the song &#8220;The Lot Behind St. Mary&#8217;s.&#8221; Although her writing has frequently veered toward introspection, McKenna&#8217;s 11th album, The Balladeer, saw her reaching deep into her personal life for inspiration. Another Cobb collaboration, it was released in July 2020. McKenna ventured into holiday music on the 2021 EP Christmas Is Right Here, then started a series of collaborative EPs with fellow songwriters Luke Laird and Barry Dean. Released during the front part of 2023, the three volumes of The Songwriter Tapes featured updated versions of hit songs they had originally written for others. Later that year, McKenna collaborated with Caroline Spence on &#8220;The Next Good Time&#8221; and with Hillary Lindsey on &#8220;Killing Me” and again teamed up with Cobb to release the more electric, live-tracked album 1988.

After more than three decades of bringing his signature brand of country music to fans around the world, ‘90s country hitmaker Doug Stone has decided it’s time to hang up his cowboy hat, but not before giving his fans one last opportunity to catch a show and sing along to songs that shaped the 90s era of country music on his farewell tour. 
“I’ve been on the road for 34 years, and I’m still in pretty good shape,” says Stone. “I’ve missed a whole lot of family life. I’ve got a seven-year-old daughter now, and it’s time to come off the road and have a home life.
Now in 2024, thirty-four years, 8 Number One hits, 15 TopTen singles, and over 10 Million album sales later, the singer of timeless Country gold like “A Jukebox with a Country Song” &amp; “In a Different Light” is undertaking one final tour. For Stone, his years on the road have been an answered prayer, and he plans on stepping off the stage with the same gratitude with which he stepped onto it.
“I asked the Lord to allow me to do this more than 30 years ago. He’s let me, and I’ve had a lot of fun. I’ve given everything I’ve got to my fans, and it’s about time to give some to my family,” says Stone. “I just want to thank all the fans for letting me do this for a lifetime and loving the music.”

The Arcadian Wild is a four-piece indie folk/pop group from Nashville, TN. Led by songwriters Isaac Horn and Lincoln Mick and Bailey Warren on fiddle, The Arcadian Wild confidently inhabits and explores an intersection of genre, blending the traditional with the contemporary. Combining elements of progressive bluegrass, folk, and formal vocal music, The Arcadian Wild offer up songs of invitation; calls to come and see, to find refuge and rest, to journey and wonder, to laugh and cry, to share joy and community and sing along.
The band’s 2023 album Welcome marks the start of a captivating new chapter for the genre-bending trio, who returned to the studio with renewed purpose and insight after devoting the last few years to a series of critically acclaimed singles and EPs. Like much of the band’s catalog, the album blurs the lines between chamber folk and progressive bluegrass, drawing on everything from country and classical to pop and choral music with lush harmonies and dazzling fretwork, but this time around there’s a rawness to the writing, an embrace of candor and simplicity that cuts straight to the heart of things like never before. The result is perhaps the most arresting collection yet from a band known for its ability to stop listeners dead in their tracks, an exquisitely beautiful celebration of community, connection, and the power of belonging that feels tailor-made for these challenging times.

After Al Stewart’s US tour in 2019 with his band The Empty Pockets, he spent most of 2020 and 2021 sidelined due the COVID-19 pandemic. But in 2022, he came back full force with a string of sold-out shows in the United States and United Kingdom, and he even made his debut in Israel. On his current tour, he’ll continue his trek with several shows throughout the United States. He will be playing his old favorites, like “Year Of The Cat,” “Time Passages,” “On the Border” and “Modern Times,” along with selections from his deep catalogue spanning five decades as a key figure in British music.
The Scottish-born singer-songwriter has released nearly 20 introspective and lyrically powerful records featuring brilliant backing musicians (Jimmy Page, Phil Collins, Richard Thompson, Peter White, etc.). His biggest platinum successes, “Year Of The Cat” and “Time Passages”, were released in 1976 and 1978 respectively. He’s had several top 20 singles, including the above-mentioned titles, as well as “On the Border” and “Song On The Radio,”
In Al’s own Words: “I&#8217;m just a folk singer that is interested in history and wine that got lucky with some hit records! It&#8217;s as simple as that really. I was always a huge music fan and originally, I had wanted to be Brian Jones and then Bob Dylan, but those two jobs were already taken. And in many ways, I&#8217;m still pretty much the same troubadour that I was back in 1965. I still get a kick out of hearing the Zombies, Hendrix or They Might be Giants on the radio.”

For Suzy Bogguss, life is all about connection. 
​ 
She&#8217;s a living legend of country music, having earned eight Top 10 hits throughout the 1990s before exploring new influences — including jazz, western swing, and the Bakersfield sound — during the 21st century. From Grammy Award-winning performances to platinum-selling records, Suzy has proudly called her own shots for four decades, earning her stripes as a singer-songwriter, producer, and road warrior along the way. 
​ 
Most importantly, she&#8217;s maintained strong relationships with her friends and fans, from the soup nights she regularly hosts at her Tennessee home — evenings that feature not only food, but also jam sessions between dinner guests like Tommy Emmanuel, Keb’ Mo’, and Sam Bush — to her weekly livestream, &#8220;Wine Down Wednesday.&#8221; Launched in 2020, those livestreams strengthened Suzy&#8217;s bond with her audience during the Covid era, giving her the inspiration and confidence to create her newest album, Prayin&#8217; For Sunshine. 
​ 
&#8220;This is the first time I&#8217;ve written my whole album,&#8221; says Suzy, who found herself at home in 2020, her touring schedule brought to a halt by the pandemic. The previous years had found her releasing themed records like American Folk Songbook (a collection of folk standards) and Lucky (a tribute to Merle Haggard). Both albums were well-received, but Suzy couldn&#8217;t help feeling like something was missing. &#8220;I was asking myself, &#8216;Does anyone really want to hear where I&#8217;m at right now? Then we had the lockdown and I got so close to the people who watched my live streams every week, and I learned that they didn&#8217;t want to just hear the songs they already knew. They wanted new music. All of a sudden, I got the confidence to make a new record of my own songs. It was like someone lit a fire under me.&#8221; 
​ 
That fire burns brightly on Prayin&#8217; For Sunshine. Recorded at Suzy&#8217;s home, the album offers a mix of southern storytelling, gorgeous vocals, and organic instrumentation that showcases her country and Americana roots. It&#8217;s an eclectic and emotional project, with Suzy&#8217;s sharp songwriting balanced by spontaneous performances from the band. 
​ 
Initially, Suzy worked on Prayin&#8217; For Sunshine alone. &#8220;I played the songs on my guitar and focused on marrying the lyric to the melody,&#8221; she remembers. &#8220;Since every song was mine, I could arrange them however I wanted. When the band came over, I already knew exactly what I wanted to do with the songs, and I let the band fit themselves around me. It was such a new process for me, to have the tracks built around my performance…it was a real band vibe.&#8221;
It was a real family vibe, too, not unlike the atmosphere created by the soup nights Suzy has been hosting for the past decade. Those evenings are celebrated in her new cookbook, Suzy&#8217;s Soup Night, which pairs recipes with photos from her husband, songwriter Doug Crider. In the book&#8217;s intro, Suzy describes her get-togethers as times when &#8220;my home is filled with the joy of some of the best musicians in the world spontaneously playing together, friends laughing, and a big pot of soup on the stove at the center, bringing us together.&#8221; Although Suzy&#8217;s Soup Night and Prayin&#8217; For Sunshine are two separate projects, they&#8217;re bound together by a shared appreciation for the good stuff: music, storytelling, community, and the connections we make on our shared journey. 
​ 
&#8220;I&#8217;m feeling revitalized!&#8221; Suzy says. “I feel so present in my live shows now, in a way I haven’t in years. I love playing my old songs, but I have new things to share, too. I called the album Prayin&#8217; For Sunshine because I&#8217;ve always been an optimistic person, and there&#8217;s a need to be hopeful right now. I feel like the lockdown brought performers and their audiences closer than ever. People really reached out to one another, and there&#8217;s something heartening about all of us looking at things a little bit differently. There&#8217;s so much turmoil in the world right now, but I&#8217;ve found a community of people who can agree on things that really count, like music.&#8221;

Front porch melodies and lyrics grown out of the rocky topsoil of Eastern Kentucky’s Appalachian Mountains intertwine Sundy Best’s roots into the songs they sing. They are storytellers, musicians, friends, and the impetus of the ‘kin folk movement’ that organically connects a strong music-loving family that believes in solid, real and relatable songs.
They are crowd rockers and party starters. The band’s visceral sound and incredible live shows have gained them a loyal following of dedicated fans from the hills and hollers of Appalachia, all the way to the bustling one-way streets under downtown city lights across the south. There are mountains in their music- valleys of love lost and missing home, peaks of rowdy Saturday nights and the journey in between.
The guys have been friends since they were in elementary school. They both grew up singing in their church for fun while starring in high school sports in Prestonsburg, Kentucky. After college sports success for both, Kris in basketball, and Nick in football, the friendship continued in music as they began playing patio parties, restaurants and clubs, often playing 4-hour sets each night. Both prolific songwriters, they bring songs to each other and together create their own style and sound. In 2012 they decided to record some of these songs that they self-produced along with their friend and filmmaker Coleman Saunders, and independently released Door Without A Screen that year.
That same year music veteran Van Fletcher caught the buzz and began attending shows and quickly became a fan of the sound, the songs and of Nick and Kris. CMT discovered them early in 2013 and began playing their video “Home.” Entertainment One signed the duo in 2013 and re-released Door Without A Screen, adding seven songs including new ones, as well as fan favorites from their shows. The band ultimately landed 4 albums on the Country Charts before disbanding in 2018. Jamerson continued to release music on his own (and still has a solo project coming out later this year) , but at some point during the pandemic, Sundy Best caught a second wind, began gigging again and released Feel Good Country, which Saving Country Music declared as “​​one of the best-written affairs in 2023 so far, as well as hereafter.”

Sue Foley is a virtual triple threat as a lead guitarist, singer and songwriter. Foley spent her early childhood in Canada, mesmerized by her father’s guitar and started her professional career at sixteen. By twenty-one, she was living in Austin, TX and recording for Antone’s—the esteemed Blues label and historic nightclub that helped launch the career of Stevie Ray Vaughan. Foley just won the Blues Music Award for Traditional Blues Female Artist (Koko Taylor Award) in Memphis TN — an award she also won in 2022 and 2020. She was also recently honored with Guitarist of the Year and Blues Act of the Year at the 2023 Austin Music Awards, and Guitarist of the Year at the 2023 Maple Blues Awards.
Her latest album, Pinky’s Blues took home Best Traditional Blues Album at the 2022 Blues Music Awards. Foley has toured steadily with her band, working and sharing the stage with greats such as B.B. King, Buddy Guy, Jimmie Vaughan and Billy F Gibbons. She is the only female member of the famed Jungle Show which features Gibbons, Vaughan, B3 virtuoso Mike Flanigin and Chris ‘Whipper’ Layton. Her live shows are high energy, guitar-driven and steeped in the Texas blues sound she was schooled in.
“Foley has a killer voice, an impossibly alluring blend of sex and innocence to go with those blazing guitar chops.” (Philadelphia Inquirer)

Ray Wylie Hubbard is the secret handshake amongst those who know. Earthy, real, funky, unabashed, his records have been swapped and played on the road by everyone from Blackberry Smoke and Georgia Satellites to Black Stone Cherry. “Snake Farm” alone could be the red-blooded touring male’s reality-based point of connection.
That passion for the man who’s as much a renegade poet as a roadhouse saint brought together an eclectic mix of guests for Co-Starring, his first ever high-profile label release. Ringo Starr, Joe Walsh, the Black Crowes’ Chris Robinson, Ronnie Dunn, Don Was, Larkin Poe, Pam Tillis and The Cadillac Three were just a few who clamored to jam, sing and generally be in the studio with the wizened icon.
The Austin Music and Eric Church-inducted Texas Heritage Songwriters Hall of Famer was born in Soper, Oklahoma, went to high school with cosmic cowboy Michael Martin Murphey and spent his summers playing folk music in Red River, New Mexico. It all added to an iconoclastic, hell-bent for truths and textures in writing about the way outlaws live – and added to his outlier bona fides that he made 16 albums without ever signing to a major label.
That’s all about to change for the go-to songwriter for Lucinda Williams, Hayes Carll, Pat Green, Jerry Jeff Walker, Waylon Jennings, Slaid Cleaves and Willie Nelson. Whether it’s bluegrass/folk legend Peter Rowan on the tender “Hummingbird,” emerging Nashville renegade Ashley McBryde on the tough girl homage “Outlaw Blood,” SiriusXM femme fatales Paula Nelson and Elizabeth Cook on the randy “Drink ‘Til I See Double” or the trippy rocker Aaron Lee Tasjan on the elegiac “Rock Gods,” Co-Starring is a supple, musky affair.

Texas Singer-songwriter Radney Foster first gained attention as half of the duo Foster &amp; Lloyd (who, with “Crazy Over You” became the first duo in history to top the Country charts with their debut single), and established himself as a solo artist in the early 90’s with this critically acclaimed release Del Rio, Texas 1959.
Foster has written eight number-one hit singles including his own “Nobody Wins” and “Crazy Over You” with Foster &amp; Lloyd. His discography contains countless cuts by artists ranging anywhere from Country (Keith Urban, The Chicks, Brooks &amp; Dunn, Nitty Gritty Dirt Band) to contemporary pop (Marc Broussard, Hootie &amp; the Blowfish, Kenny Loggins, Los Lonely Boys, George Benson) and his songs have sold 50 million copies worldwide. He was recently inducted into the Texas Heritage Songwriters Hall of Fame.
His most recent project For You To See Stars is in two parts; a book of short fiction and a companion CD by the same name.
Foster has appeared in film, TV and stage as a host of CMT Crossroads, the film Beauty Mark and on stage in the acclaimed musical Troubadour.

Years before her first single Break Down Here turned her into a country headliner, Julie Roberts was a young girl with a dream in rural South Carolina, raised on the sounds of traditional country music, blues, and old-school soul. &#8220;The radio was our escape,&#8221; she remembers. “Every guitar lick, every melody, every bit of hurt in someone&#8217;s voice became ingrained in my head.&#8221; After Break Down Here, Roberts followed with classics such as Wake Up Older, Men and Mascara, and Rain on a Tin Roof. She sang the Good Morning America theme song, did national ads for Clinique, had a featured photo spread in Maxim Magazine, and signed her story to Lifetime Channel for a movie. Then, after selling over a million records, she took a step back to deal with family and some medical issues. In 2022, Julie re-entered music with what many are referring to as her career record, the best since her self-titled debut, singing about love, loss, roots, and redemption in a voice that&#8217;s never sounded bigger. Produced by Shooter Jennings and Erin Enderlin, “Ain’t in No Hurry” features 14 songs across a variety of styles, including duets with Jamey Johnson and Randy Houser. Every song highlights her trademark energy and a celebration of authentic country music and passion.

At any given time, you’re likely to find Jim Lauderdale making music, whether he’s laying down a new track in the studio or working through a spontaneous melody at his home in Nashville. And if he’s not actively crafting new music, he’s certainly thinking about it. “It&#8217;s a constant challenge to try to keep making better and better records, write better and better songs. I still always feel like I&#8217;m a developing artist,” he says. This may be a surprising sentiment from a man who’s won two Grammys and 14 AMAs, released 34 full-length albums, and taken home the Americana Music Association’s coveted Wagonmaster Award. But forthcoming album Game Changer is convincing evidence that the North Carolina native is only continuing to hone his craft.
He’s been a vital part of the country music ecosystem since 1991, when he released his debut album and began penning songs for an impressively long roster of country music greats. “When I was a teenager wanting to be a bluegrass banjo player, I never would have imagined that I would get to work with people like Ralph Stanley, Robert Hunter, Loretta Lynn, George Jones, Emmylou Harris, Elvis Costello, Lucinda Williams and John Oates ,” he muses. “Getting to work with them inspires me greatly to this day, and I know it always will.”
Jim has penned songs for a variety of artists, including George Strait (9 total), Blake Shelton, Patty Loveless, Lee Ann Wommack, Vince Gill, Mark Chestnutt, Elvis Costello, The Chicks and Gary Allen. He’s collaborated with Dr. Ralph Stanley, Robert Hunter, North Mississippi All-Stars, Nick Lowe, legendary mandolin master Roland White and fellow Nashville songwriting titan Buddy Miller, with whom he’s cohosted The Buddy &amp; Jim Radio Show, broadcast on Sirius XM Outlaw Country since 2012.

A timeless voice outlasts eras. It feels just as at home in the sixties as it does in the TikTok age. It also resounds louder as time goes on. Haley Reinhart brandishes such a voice. The expansive scope of her range comes into full focus on her 4th album, Lo-Fi Soul. In many ways, Haley began working towards this album and her artistry as a child. Mom and Dad share a &#8220;Midnight Band,&#8221; and unsurprisingly, their daughter would sing before she could talk. She spent countless hours engaged in rhyming games with her mother or locked into a call-and-response as a baby with her father.
In 2009, Haley was the first songstress ever to join her high school jazz band where they performed at both Montreux and Umbria jazz festivals. Her fascination with all things classic continued as she became a fan of The Beatles and Janis Joplin, to Ella Fitzgerald and Sly &amp; The Family Stone. These influences also led her to record a full album at Sunset Sound, paying homage to classic rock and pop hits from the late sixties titled, What’s That Sound. Haley plays regularly with Robby Krieger of The Doors among other rock legends; she continues to keep her rock &#8216;n&#8217; roll roots intact.
The double platinum-certified Chicago-born/Los Angeles-based singer and songwriter exudes an empowering level of charisma and confidence earned by a quiet, decade-long grind. Haley landed third place and became a fan favorite on season 10 of American Idol. She recently returned to AI, this time as a mentor, coaching contestants singing in the Soul Genre. Her dynamic presence powered four solo albums— Listen Up! Better, What’s That Sound? and Lo-Fi Soul. Haley has been known to leave her mark on countless films and commercials singing in the new Mazda ad, Chase Bank, as well as shows including Love Island, Gossip Girl, Nashville, Riverdale, The Wilds, America’s Got Talent, Dancing with the Stars, and the list goes on&#8230;
Meanwhile, her take on the Elvis Presley classic, Can’t Help Falling In Love generated over 325 million Spotify streams and 100 million YouTube views within two years of its release. What started as a version sung for an Extra Gum Commercial, turned out to be a chart-topping radio hit and touring sensation. Haley’s remake of the song peaked at No. 17 on the Billboard Adult Contemporary chart and No. 31 on the Billboard Adult Pop Airplay chart.
Haley has also embraced collaborating regularly with other talented musicians. She is featured on Postmodern Jukebox’s highest-viewed videos on YouTube (over 300 million views). Haley has also dueted with legendary star Jeff Goldblum on two tracks from his chart-topping jazz standards collection, The Capitol Studios Sessions. In 2019, she continued pushing boundaries by lending her voice and songwriting skills to Vicetone’s EDM dance hit, Something Strange as well as an EDM version of Radiohead’s Creep with DJ Naeleck in 2022.
Expanding her oeuvre, Haley voices a young boy named Bill Murphy on the Netflix hit animated series based on comedian Bill Burr’s childhood &#8211; F Is For Family (seasons one through five out now). She made her acting debut in the #1 hit Robert Rodriguez film on Netflix titled, We Can Be Heroes, where she plays a superhero whose voice is her power.
Both 2022 and 2023 were banner years for Haley. In September 2022, Haley’s newest EP, &#8216;Off The Ground,&#8217; was released worldwide. The extended play features seven original songs all either written or co-written by Haley. From Fall 2022 to Fall 2023, Haley headlined her “Off The Ground Tour”. She played to rave reviews in over 100 theaters and rock rooms throughout North America.
In 2024, Haley has taken her career to another level. After spending the first half of the year writing and recording a new album, Haley will embark on her headline tour, which will run from May to November 2024. The show is just beginning.

For over 40 years Glenn Jones has been using his gift to touch others in a way that only his voice can do. Just one listen to the proclaimed “Ambassador of Love” and you will know why the powerhouse vocalist and love song perfectionist has withstood the test of time.
Although he initially made his mark in the Gospel arena, Jones&#8217; voice caught the ear of acclaimed musician Norman Connors, with whom he toured and ultimately began performing R&amp;B music. Having officially made the transition from Gospel to R&amp;B, Jones joined the roster at RCA Records. Four years later, he signed with Jive Records and enjoyed success with his self-titled album, which spawned the hit singles, “We&#8217;ve Only Just Begun (The Romance Is Not Over)” and “Stay.” His move to Atlantic Records produced contemporary up-tempo hits “Here I Go Again” and “I&#8217;ve Been Searching (Nobody Like You)”. During 1998, Jones signed with SAR for the independent release of “It&#8217;s Time”, which sold nearly 200,000 copies. In addition, the album included the hit single “Baby Come Home”, a Top 5 R&amp;B single that was one of the Top Ten Most Played Records for 2000, according to Billboard Monitor.
No stranger to pen and paper, Jones received a coveted Stellar Award for his crafty lyrics, superior vocals and for lending his production talents to the gospel quartet, Canton Spirituals (Verity Records), garnering favorites, including “Never Let Go” and “They Need to Belong”. In conjunction with his writing, producing, recording and performance schedule, Jones added acting to his repertoire. Between album projects, he joined the casts of both “The Devil Made Me Do It” and “When a Woman&#8217;s Fed Up”, touring across the nation for nearly two years.
In 2024 Glenn Jones is still one of the most sought-after live performers in the industry. This God-gifted vocalist has established a level of integrity and exemplary characteristics that are seldom found in this evolving industry. He is living proof of a vocal talent; an unblemished level of integrity and an unwavering faith. There is no doubt that the Ambassador of Love will always stay true to his talent, himself, and most importantly his God.

It isn&#8217;t often when a country singer has the rock-solid guts of Dust Bowl reveries, the jacked-up locomotion of the early Bakersfield country sound and the more modern-minted energy of Los Angeles&#8217; honky-tonk hijinks all rolled into one righteous attack. But that&#8217;s George Ducas&#8217; soul to share. On his new album, LONG WAY FROM HOME, there is a distinct feeling of a new history being born. Teaming with Platinum producer/guitarist Pete Anderson, Ducas is able to seamlessly connect all those elements with such a natural flair that it can be a bit overwhelming when the sound is flying at full tilt.
On his previous albums, it was obvious that something serious has always been happening with the man&#8217;s music. It could be felt in the rhythms the songs featured, in the lyrics of someone who takes songwriting seriously, and maybe most of all in the voice of an all-time great country music singer.
Ducas has had multiple Billboard chart hits of his own, including the breakout Top 10 “Lipstick Promises”, and has even written hit records for all-timers like George Jones, Garth Brooks, The Chicks, and Trisha Yearwood and been nominated for a Grammy Award, but he’s never made an album like LONG WAY FROM HOME. Now, it is as if everything has coalesced into an undeniable force which happens once or twice a decade in country music. And so out of Los Angeles, California, the journey begins with a LONG WAY FROM HOME.
