DEK of Hearts
DEK of Hearts is a powerhouse country-pop trio blending country, pop, and bluegrass influences with soaring three-part harmonies. Featured on Season 28 of NBC’s The Voice, they earned a rare 4-chair turn that famously put Reba McEntire on the floor before advancing to the Top 3 of the season. Their journey has resonated with audiences nationwide, generating more than 26 million social media views and earning features in People Magazine, American Songwriter, NBC’s Today Show, and EntertainmentNOW. Formed after graduating from Trevecca Nazarene University in Nashville, DEK of Hearts officially debuted in 2024 and has quickly become one of country music’s rising groups. Winners of the 2025 Tennessee Songwriters Week competition, they performed at the iconic Bluebird Cafe before making their Grand Ole Opry debut in May 2026. The trio has also shared the stage with Brett Young, Carly Pearce, Rhonda Vincent, and Niko Moon across the United States and Canada. With compelling harmonies, dynamic performances, and heartfelt storytelling, DEK of Hearts continues to redefine the modern country-pop trio.
Abby Bowers
Abby is a singer-songwriter from the midwest whose sound is shaped by the artists she grew up hearing; a blend of pop, Soul, Country and Folk from her parent’s eclectic record collection.
After years of traveling from city to city as a model, Abby took a leap of faith, moving to Nashville in 2020. Nashville quickly became home and the city would ultimately become the inspiration for the songs she always wanted to write.
Abby made her Americanafest debut in 2026 and in January 2027, Abby will release her debut EP, Tennessee, Too. The 5 song collection captures a season of change; leaving behind a life she once knew, finding her footing again and navigating the unexpected ways love can reshape a person. The EP features a duet with Lukas Nelson as well as songs co-written with award-winning songwriters Arron Raitiere and Jon Decious.
Avery Roberson
North Carolina native, Avery Roberson, realized his love of music and acquired his talent for entertainment from his father and grandfather. Music was all around Avery growing up, and Dad, Tony, played in a country music band called the Hutchins Brothers. They had a Top 100 hit in the late 80s. As a result, Avery picked up the guitar and started singing at an early age. It didn’t take long for him to fall in love with Country Music.
Avery got his break when NBC’s The Voice cast him in their 20th Season. He finished in the top 28, and the experience solidified his thirst for the stage. Since then, Avery has been writing, spending time in the studio, and playing at live events such as the Carolina Country Music Festival. He released his first single, “Ringtone.” which debuted on iTunes Top 100 Country Chart, followed by “Lord Have Mercy,” “Forever On Your Lips,” “Home Sweet Home,” and “Always Something.” The song “Alive” is his most famous song yet, with over 1.5 million streams.
