Skyelor Anderson

Born in Memphis, Skyelor Anderson has been making a name for himself in the country scene, blending soul, gospel, and country into a sound that’s all his own. A former X Factor contestant, he has opened for major acts like Jamey Johnson, Brothers Osborne, and Jon Pardi, proving he belongs on the biggest stages.

Ben Kadlecek 

A Southern Rock/Alternative Country Artist from the Texas Hill Country town of Dripping Springs.  A piano player since the age of seven, Ben’s unique gift is the fact that he can command the stage behind both a keyboard and a guitar. He treats the craft of songwriting like a puzzle, trying to find the best way to make the pieces fit while weaving a meaningful story throughout the song. His first major cut as a songwriter is one he previously released on his own project “Brazos County Bound”.  Amen is the lead single from Nashville recording artist Jacob Bryant’s 2022 album “Barstool Preacher”.  Ben was busy in 2022 with singles “Ghosts” released in January and finding its way to BMI’s Texas Top Ten playlist and “Tell Me” landing on Spotify’s Fresh Finds Country playlist following in February. In August 2023, Ben relocated to Nashville, Tennessee full time.  Since moving he has been busy writing and recording new music.  A five song project released in march 2024 followed by a single “Hell Mary” in October. 2025 is already looking to be a breakout year for the young singer/songwriter.

Craig Campbell

Country hitmaker Craig Campbell has long been admired for his patience and persistence in an industry that all too often relies on overnight success. After landing in Nashville from Lyons, Georgia, his undeniable talent and charm landed him steady gigs as a keyboard player for Luke Bryan and Tracy Byrd. With smooth chops and hot blooded stage presence, it wasn’t long before Campbell broke out into stardom of his own with hits like “Family Man” and “Outta My Head” soaring into the Top 15 on the Billboard Country Charts. Showing off his down-home flair in singles like “Fish” and his Top 10 smash “Keep Them Kisses Comin”, Campbell became a boot-stompin’, crowd pleasing favorite. His critically acclaimed ballad, “Outskirts of Heaven” was performed on NBC’s TODAY show and praised by Rolling Stone for its uplifting message. A regular on the Grand Ole Opry, Campbell also wowed audiences around the country on Luke Bryan’s highly successful Huntin’, Fishin’, and Lovin’ Everyday Tour.

In 2018, he released See You Try, a seven-song EP on Broken Bow Records. 2020 has brought on a partnership with EMPIRE and the release of new music on his own accord, starting with his romantic ballad, “It’s About Time”. The let loose anthem, “All My Friends Drink Beer” followed and now he is showing off his country pride with “Flyin’ My Country Flag.”

2023 was an ambitious time of music for Campbell, who released the 16-song The Lost Files: Exhibit A and the 17-song Exhibit B, the second of which landed on the first ballot of the ACM Awards.

2024 brought Class Of  ’89. Where Craig reinvented six classic Country tracks that are special to him, including “Killin’ Time,” “Too Cold At Home” and “On The Other Hand,” and re-recorded an album  of his charting singles, titled Almost Greatest Hits.

With a new album of original material Craig Campbell shows no signs of slowing down.
