There is a grit that seems to seep from every note Lewis Brice sings.
Brice started making substantial waves in the industry with 2010’s “Ordinary Girl.” He competed on CMT’s Can You Duet? snagging a top ten spot after beating thousands of his fellow music-makers. He took the lead role in brother Lee Brice’s “I Drive Your Truck” music video and took home a British CMA Award for “International Song of the Year” for his heartfelt song “Blessed.” With more outstanding original tracks such as, “It’s You (I’ve Been Looking for)” “Summertime Vibes&#8221;, &#8221; Messin with my mind&#8221; and “Call Me Yours,” Brice has surpassed over Fifty Million streams across the digital platforms.
He has received accolades from the likes of Rolling Stone and Billboard and has shared the stage with acts like Luke Bryan, Dierks Bently, Hank Williams Jr. Gary Allan and Lee Brice just to name a few.
But make no mistake – Brice is nowhere close to tying a shiny bow on life just yet. “I can still write songs about broken hearts and promises…because I&#8217;ve been there. But I&#8217;ve also got a lot of life experiences to share, both good and bad.” With Lewis Brice, the glass is always half full. As in his song inspired by Matthew McConaughey’s quote, “Let me tell you this, the older you do get, the more rules they’re gonna try to get you to follow. You just gotta keep livin man, L.I.V.I.N.

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.

From humble beginnings in rural South Carolina to country stardom with hits like Break Down Here, Julie Roberts has returned with Ain’t in No Hurry—a powerful, career-defining album that blends soul, roots, and resilience in her most authentic voice yet.

With a guitar slung over his shoulder and the amps turned up full tilt, Anthony Gomes electrifies blues and rock at a 21st century crossroads of his own. The Canadian vocalist, guitarist, songwriter and producer wails with all the force of a hurricane in the Mississippi Delta and enough fret-burning fireworks to leave his strings in flames. Over the years, he’s toppled the Billboard Blues Chart at #1, earned the endorsement of legends such as B.B. King, tallied tens of millions of streams, and packed shows on multiple continents. In April 2025, Anthony Gomes is back with his much-anticipated 14th studio album, Praise the Loud, set for release on Rat Pak Records.
“I’ve learned how to embrace my voice as a guitarist and as a singer,” he states. “I understand who I am, and I use my strengths to my advantage. I have a blues soul and a rock ‘n’ roll heart. I love to jump back and forth between both with a modern day approach. When I play rock, it’s got a little more dust on it.&#8221;
Born and raised in Toronto, Ontario, he fell in love with music as a kid, listening to everyone from Muddy Waters and Jimi Hendrix to Jeff Beck and Eddie Van Halen. At 14 years old, Anthony gravitated to the guitar and his relationship with the instrument was born. After grinding it out, his chops caught the attention of B.B. King’s bus driver at a jam night. Blown away, the driver introduced him to B.B. who invited him to open up a string of tour dates in 2005. Gaining invaluable knowledge from “The King,” he went on to share the stage with the likes of Buddy Guy, Robert Plant, Joe Bonamassa, Heart, Sammy Hagar, Kenny Wayne Shepherd, and more. Along the way, his concert attendees have included Academy® Award winner Morgan Freeman, JohnGoodman, and Vince Vaughn as well as Eric Clapton, to name a few.
2022’s High Voltage Blues vaulted to #1 on the iTunes Top Blues Albums Chart, #1 on Amazon Music’s New Release Blues Chart and debuted at #1 on the Billboard Blues chart. It remained on the Billboard Blues chart for 58 consecutive weeks, landing on &#8216;Billboard&#8217;s Top 15 Blues Albums of the Year&#8217; for both 2023 and 2024.
Meanwhile, Total Guitar listed Gomes as &#8216;One of the 100 Greatest Blues Guitarists of All Time&#8217; in 2024. Guitar World readers voted him one of “The 30 Best Blues Guitarists in the World Today” in 2019, and the publication noted, “Gomes is another power player who is at his best when his gear is in the scorched earth between blues and rock.”
Anthony&#8217;s latest release, 2025&#8217;s Praise the Loud, delivers 12 fresh studio tracks that showcase Anthony’s musical evolution while staying true to the no-holds-barred sound that has earned him a global fanbase.
Reflecting on the new album, Anthony shares, “On Praise the Loud, we pushed our musical boundaries in every direction. We wanted it to rock harder than anything we’ve done before, but at the same time, we wanted it to have a deeper, more soulful blues feel. When people ask me what I sound like, I say, ‘If B.B. King was in AC/DC, that’s what it would be’. That’s Praise The Loud in a nutshell.”
Gomes cites the track &#8216;Rock &amp; Roll Bluesman&#8217; as the thesis of the album. &#8220;My favorite line on the album comes from the song ‘Rock &amp; Roll Bluesman’: ‘I don’t care if they love or hate us, gonna turn it up so they won’t forget us.’ That lyric captures the spirit of the album—declaring that we’re playing blues rock on our own terms, no matter what.”
From the powerful rhythms of the album opener “Praise the Loud” to the ZZ Top-inspired groove of “Netflix &amp; Chill,” Anthony tackles a range of emotions and topics with his signature blend of layered harmonies, infectious rhythms, and blues-infused grooves. Tracks like “Meet My Maker,” “Black Diamond Heavy,” and “Electric Blues Crusade” highlight nhis ability to stretch his creative boundaries and expand his lyrical scope, while songs like “Love Song Gone Wrong” and “In the Name of the Blues” showcase his unmistakable blues guitar mastery. Produced by Peter Carson/Anthony Gomes and mixed by Chris Collier, Praise the Loud packs the punch and energy fans have come to expect from this world-class blues artist.
In the end, Anthony Gomes is just the kind of guitar hero we need for today.
“I still believe in a world of guitar heroes,” he smiles. “I strive for a world where you don’t have to be 19 years old to sell a lot of records and tickets and to make a statement. I’m one of those people who doesn’t think rock, or the blues is dead. I’m looking for fresh ways to bring them together. I’m at the table rolling the dice all in the name of blues and rock ‘n’ roll. I know there’s never been a more exciting time for music, and I’m here for the journey.”

During the creative explosion that was Country music in the 1990s Suzy Bogguss sold over 4 million albums with sparkling radio hits like “Outbound Plane”, “Someday Soon”, “Letting Go,” “Drive South,” and “Hey Cinderella.”  But you can’t peg Suzy that easily… In the midst of her mainstream Country popularity she took time off to make a duets album with the legendary Chet Atkins. In 2003 she made an album of modern swing music with Ray Benson of Asleep At The Wheel. An album of original music in 2007 landed her at number 4 on the jazz charts. Her folk music roots show through in her frequent appearances on public radio’s A Prairie Home Companion, in the Grammy she earned for her work on Beautiful Dreamer: The Songs of Stephen Foster, and in her critically acclaimed album and book project from 2011, American Folk Songbook. In 2014 she released Lucky, a collection of songs written by Merle Haggard and interpreted through Suzy’s crystal vocals from the female point of view. Her latest offering, Prayin’ For Sunshine, is an Americana tour de force with all songs written by Bogguss. She continues to tour the world, both on her own and with fellow country radio divas Terri Clark and Pam Tills as “Chicks With Hits” and more recently, with Kathy Mattea on their Together At Last tour. So yes, you can call her a country singer if you want, but really that’s just the beginning.

Brei Carter
 In the heart of Monroe, Louisiana, amidst the nurturing embrace of the Deep South, Brei Carter was born into a world where faith, music, and love intertwine like the roots of ancient oaks. Raised on a rich diet of gospel hymns from the Lone Star Missionary Baptist Church, the soul-stirring melodies of Charley Pride and Loretta Lynn, and the powerful voice of Aretha Franklin, Brei’s life was been rooted in strong southern tradition and unwavering familial devotion. This foundation, layered with the sacred words of the Bible, became the bedrock of her journey.
But Brei’s path was anything but ordinary. With a relentless spirit, she pursued education with the same fervor she held for music, earning a Bachelor’s in Business from the University of Louisiana in Monroe, a Master’s in International Relations from Webster University, and a Doctorate in Theology from New Foundation Theological Seminary. Her service in the U.S. Army, both as an enlisted soldier and an officer, further shaped her resilience and dedication.
Upon setting her boots in Nashville, Brei Carter carved a niche for herself as an exquisite country soul singer-songwriter, blending the threads of country, soul, and southern pop into an electrifying tapestry of sound. Her debut single, “Gave Him A Girl,” captured hearts with its charm, earning praise for its catchy sincerity. Esteemed voices in the music world, including Music Row Magazine’s Robert K. Oermann and platforms like TBN-TV’s Huckabee, RFD-TV’s Market Day Report, The Bluegrass Situation and Billboard have all recognized her unique blend of storytelling and melody.
Brei’s journey through music is a testament to the power of dreams and the courage to chase them. Her first album, Brand New Country, not only paid homage to her roots with a beloved cover of Charley Pride’s “Kiss an Angel Good Mornin’,” but also narrated her indomitable spirit in “Stronger Than That.” The release of “Straight Up Country Crazy” in 2023 revealed the vibrancy and depth of her character, while her Twinkling Tales of Christmas EP brought warmth and joy to the holiday season.
Daya Dorado
Raised in Texas in a Mexican household, Daya Dorado’s take on Country music is a fusion of those two cultures. Her self-proclaimed “Tex-Mex Country” combines classic Texan Country music with Norteño Mexican rhythms to create a music of resistance and storytelling. Awarded the National Association of Latino Arts and Cultures (NALAC) Artist Grant in 2023, as well as Rissi Palmer’s Color Me Country Artist Grant in 2021, Daya has been able to push forward in her artistic journey to represent Latina women in Country music in a way that is genuine and true to who she is. Her influences include Linda Ronstadt, Joan Sebastian, Freddy Fender, Juan Gabriel, George Strait, Bee Gees, and Selena. Her songwriting, both in Spanish and English, reflects her trials in love and life, as well as stories of her community. Her signature accordion playing is symbolic of her Norteño Mexican roots.
Trae Taylor
Trae Tayulor is a Country music singer and songwriter from central Virginia. After serving in the United States Army Trae moved to Nashville to pursue a dream that has turned into a fulltime job. Having gone from jumping out of C-130’s to writing some of the catchiest Country music you could ever hear, Trae has become a fixture on Nashville’s writer’s round scene and also performs with a full band.
The Outsiders Round Hosts:
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, holds a residency at Chief’s on Broadway and tours regularly with his band.
Ben Kadlecek
Ben is a Southern Rock/Alternative Country Artist from the Texas Hill Country town of Dripping Springs.  A piano player since the age of seven, Ben&#8217;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 &#8220;Brazos County Bound&#8221;.  Amen is the lead single from Nashville recording artist Jacob Bryant&#8217;s 2022 album &#8220;Barstool Preacher&#8221;.  Ben was busy in 2022 with singles &#8220;Ghosts&#8221; released in January and finding its way to BMI&#8217;s Texas Top Ten playlist and &#8220;Tell Me&#8221; landing on Spotify&#8217;s Fresh Finds Country playlist following in February. In August 2023, Ben relocated to Nashville, Tennessee fulltime.  Since moving he has been busy writing and recording new music.  A five song project released in March 2024 followed by a single &#8220;Hell Mary&#8221; in October. 2025 is already looking to be a breakout year for the young singer/songwriter.

Jessica Nixon
The Nashville Lady A beauty pageant, a dare and one talented young woman. If you have been to any of the Nashville rounds, chances are you have heard this powerhouse. A Tennessee native, Jessica began singing at the age of 4 and began writing by the time she was 14. “Music helped me deal with the harsh realities around me, and I knew when I began writing that making music and performing was my dream life.” She entered a local beauty pageant in her hometown on a dare… and won. An unexpected path that opened many doors for her. Using her new platform to promote domestic violence awareness, Jessica lobbied and helped write legislation promoting stiffer consequences for repeat offenders. Moving to Nashville after attaining her Doctorate in Pharmacy, she had the opportunity to open for some acts that you will probably recognize, including Aaron Tippin, Dustin Lynch and Shenandoah to name a few. Her first Nashville project was produced by her mentor Linda Davis (Does He Love you with Reba McEntire) whom she was also given the opportunity to be an opener for. “I was lucky enough to be mentored early on in my writing career by some wonderful people. Kim Williams, Larry Shell… and of course Linda.” From projects involving Lady A’s Hillary Scott to Lance Carpenter, Nixon is a talent we cannot wait to share with the world.

Maggie Rose hosts candid conversations with her female musical heroes about their lives in and out of music, challenging the status quo, and changing the game for those coming up behind them. August&#8217;s special guest is  S.G. Goodman!
Live podcast taped in front of live audience and live-streamed on Volume.com
Maggie Rose
Hailed for her &#8220;multi-genre talents&#8221; by Billboard and deemed a &#8220;star&#8221; by Rolling Stone, acclaimed singer-songwriter Maggie Rose has released her ambitious new album No One Gets Out Alive. Hearkening back to early &#8217;70s Laurel Canyon, the music deals in both dark and uplifting themes- disillusionment in relationships, ageism, female empowerment and living in the moment, among them, with Maggie&#8217;s big, soulful voice taking center stage. Maggie successfully straddles the worlds of pop, rock, soul, Americana and folk, unencumbered by genre specifics. Recorded with a dream team including members of Jason Isbell&#8217;s 400 Unit, Alabama Shakes and Gregg Allman&#8217;s band, the record was produced by GRAMMY-Award winner Ben Tanner, mixed by Bobby Holland and arranged by conductor Don Hart (Phish, Lyle Lovett). A respected fixture of the Nashville community, Maggie has played the iconic Grand Ole Opry over 100 times and marquee festivals including Austin City Limits, Bonnaroo, and Newport Folk Fest. A true road warrior, she has shared the stage with the likes of Kelly Clarkson, Tedeschi Trucks Band, Heart, Joan Jett, Eric Church, Gov&#8217;t Mule, The Mavericks, Fitz &amp; The Tantrums, St. Paul &amp; The Broken Bones and The Revivalists among others.
S.G. Goodman
S.G. Goodman returns from the Western Kentucky bottomland with her third studio album, ‘Planting by the Signs,&#8217; out everywhere on 6/20/25. Her first album in three years, it is a reminder of the Kentucky born and raised singer-songwriter’s razor-sharp lyricism, singular voice and seamless blend of indie rock and subtle rural influences. &#8216;Planting by the Signs&#8217; finds Goodman exploring themes in the only way she knows; with a fresh musical and lyrical perspective, vivid, incisive detail, and a heaping dose of empathy and compassion. Lead single &#8220;<a href="https://open.spotify.com/album/0BqQBhMGK7Wc9MuslsWsUf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Fire Sign</a>&#8221; is out now.
S.G. Goodman catapulted onto the scene in 2020 with her debut album <a href="https://open.spotify.com/album/157xeDtGxPmnZIQfdJjQFT" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Old Time Feeling</a> – possibly the worst time to emerge, and yet, her talent was undeniable. She immediately garnered attention from NPR, Rolling Stone, and more, and took her show on the road across the world, gaining fans and followers, even landing a fan in <a href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/13ZEDW6vyBF12HYcZRr4EV" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Tyler Childers</a>, who covered her song &#8220;<a href="https://open.spotify.com/track/4sYhsIGQV2DRzYuTIBSoFN" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Space And Time</a>.&#8221;
In 2022, she released <a href="https://open.spotify.com/album/5fXIv2d6FP5hSTYThKREZH" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Teeth Marks</a>, a critical darling that leveled her up, gaining praise from the New York Times, landing her an NPR Tiny Desk, landing on Pitchfork and NPR’s Best Of lists, and earning her the Best Emerging Artist Award at the 2023 Americana Awards. After nearly three years of promotion on the road, Goodman decamped to the Nutt House in Sheffield, AL, in the fall of 2024 to create &#8216;Planting by the Signs,&#8217; her best record to date.

Maggie Rose hosts candid conversations with her female musical heroes about their lives in and out of music. August&#8217;s special guest is S.G. Goodman.

With a nod to the past and a wink to the future from behind their sunglasses, Baltimore&#8217;s The Dirty Grass Players have been pushing the leading edge of bluegrass music since 2015.
As convincing on a 10 minute jam as they are on a 2 minute classic, they find an intersection between progress and tradition that in one set could inspire Flatt &amp; Scruggs to reunite and then break up all over again. With harmonies to please any purist, compositions fresh enough to have been written tomorrow, and improvisations that fearlessly stride to the end of every limb, this band can play as clean as anybody but isn&#8217;t afraid to get a little dirty.
After starting with jams between founders Ben Kolakowski (guitar) and Ryan Rogers (mandolin), DGP quickly made a name in the Baltimore scene before hitting the road. Since then, they&#8217;ve toured the US and Europe and made appearances at festivals like Grey Fox, DelFest, Dark Star Jubilee, ROMP, Bristol Rhythm &amp; Roots, and the Rotterdam Bluegrass Festival. With Connor Murray on bass since 2021 and the addition of Sam Guthridge on banjo in 2024, a reinvigorated lineup is on the road and coming your way.
With two albums and a slew of singles, their latest full-length, “Shiny Side Up”, was produced by Travelin&#8217; McCourys guitarist Cody Kilby and reveals a band probing the possibilities of bluegrass with dark themes and adventurous playing. In its praise of the album, Bluegrass Unlimited says, “Shiny Side Up validates the arrival of the Dirty Grass Players onto the scene and shows bluegrass is in good hands going forward.&#8221; Their first single with the new lineup, a cover of “Voodoo Child (Slight Return)” by Jimi Hendrix, reimagines the rock classic with a driving bluegrass arrangement which makes a compelling argument that sometimes looking to the roots is the most inventive approach a band can take.

He started playing a livestream show via his Facebook page every week called “Friday Night Quarantunes” and has amassed thousands of views and many new fans because of this.

Join us in The Neon Steeple for the Uncle B&#8217;s Drunk with Power String Band Show featuring Bryan Simpson with Nathan Belt, Leah Blevins, Alex Lambert, Aniston Pate and more!
Uncle B&#8217;s Drunk With Power String Band Show is Bryan Simpson&#8217;s irreverent trippy-trad tent revival of a musical experience currently in residence in the Neon Steeple at Chief&#8217;s on Broadway in Nashville, Tennessee. Aka. the Damned Ole Opry &#8211; the variety show features a wildly talented slew of colorful and creative musicians, singers, and songwriters that tear things down to the stud level all in the way of a grand ole time.
Each month, Uncle B’s honors a legendary record with renditions of classic songs performed on banjos, fiddles and mandolins. It’s hay bales and hell yeahs! Imagine Billy Strings meets Barnum and Bailey. Hee Haw and Half Baked had a baby. It’s best witnessed instead of discussed. Come lay eyes on it.
This Month the Drunk with Power String Band play Tyler Childers’ Purgatory with special guests Leah Blevins, Alex Lambert, Aniston Pate, Nathan Belt and more!
Nathan Belt
Country music traditionalist and Texas native Nathan Belt honed his skills across the North Texas Opry circuit, later moving to Tennessee and becoming a fixture in Nashville’s music scene since the early 2000s after signing his first major publishing deal.  An incredible solo vocalist and also lead singer/frontman of the fan-favorite band Nathan Belt &amp; the Buckles, Nathan can be found sharing his love of traditional, classic Country music in well-known music venues all over Nashville, Robert&#8217;s Western World, The Nashville Palace, Chief&#8217;s on Broadway, Acme Feed &amp; Seed  and Music City Bar &amp; Grill in Music Valley to name a few. He’s currently a featured performer and host on Nashville’s famous General Jackson Showboat, too.  Nathan’s love and respect for classic Country is front and center with his recent singles &#8220;Clean Livin&#8217; Is Killin&#8217; Me&#8221; and &#8220;I Can&#8217;t Stand No More&#8221;. And there&#8217;s a lot more where that came from, with new self-penned music he&#8217;ll be releasing throughout 2025.
Leah Blevins
Imbued with the grit of vintage country music and the grace of gospel, Leah Blevins’ debut album is a scrapbook of sorts, a collage of feelings and memories from a decade spent working in the big city of Nashville while missing the small town she left behind. “It’s a timestamp of my twenties,” says the Sandy Hook, Kentucky, native. “Here are all the stories and all the experiences from that decade. Here are all the mixed emotions I’ve felt about things I’ve gone through and people I’ve met along the way.” First Time Feeling turns tribulations into what Blevins calls “bundles of triumphs,” which lend weight to her well-observed lyrics and gravity to her soulful vocals. “It’s about coming into womanhood, but it’s more than just a coming-of-age story. It’s me discovering that I’m capable of writing a song on my own. I’m capable of staying sober. I’m capable of all these things that once felt so far out of reach. Within those walls these songs had to be unapologetically honest.”
Solon Holt
<div class="elementToProof">From red brick streets to red dirt roads, Solon Holt began his musical journey at a young age in the Piney Woods of East Texas. As the youngest of four boys in a family with a rich musical heritage, Solon was determined to make his mark musically from a very early age. His exposure to musical genres of all types was vast, including classical, blues, jazz, folk, pop, traditional country, and bluegrass; however, it was his experience as a teen in an all-black church playing gospel music every Sunday that helped curate his soulful sound.</div>
<div class="elementToProof">During his freshman year at the University of Mississippi, Solon was quickly recognized for his abilities as a vocalist and guitar player, as well as his ability to command a crowd. It was at this time that Solon was first noticed by a major record label, with contract negotiations tabled in order to allow him time to write and further develop his sound.</div>
<div></div>
<div class="elementToProof">To this end, Solon moved to Nashville during the summer following his freshman year, and has been enthusiastically received by the Nashville community. Weaving together his passion for bluegrass with the soulful spirit of gospel, Solon has brought his intense and unreserved sound to the world of country and Americana music. His “home away from home” sits within the walls of Universal Music Publishing Group writing and producing music alongside some of Nashville’s greatest songwriters.</div>
Aniston Pate
Aniston Pate is an American Country Singer/Songwriter, born and raised in Dalhart, TX. She is currently pursuing artistry and songwriting while attending Belmont University. She finds inspiration in Texas red dirt country artists like Wade Bowen &amp; Randy Rogers as well as women like Miranda Lambert and Lainey Wilson. Since moving to Nashville she has frequented popular writer’s rounds, played rowdy downtown shows, and written with some of Nashville’s best songwriters on music row. Aniston’s music is natural, honest, and about real life. She will tug on your heart strings one minute and have you wanting to two-step the next! When listening you&#8217;ll find a mix of honest lyrics and a real and raw sound.
Bryan Simpson
Modern American eclectic singer-songwriter Bryan Simpson is an artist whose sound unnervingly explores an evocative amalgamation of southern folk, bluegrass, classic country and indie eclecticism, with the playful swagger, relatable storytelling, and thoughtful introspection of his heroes which include John Hartford, Tom T Hall, Jeff Tweedy, and of course Bob Dylan.
Bryan’s songs have netted praise from all corners: The Huffington Post wrote “Bryan’s original undertakings are reminiscent of the whimsical and whip-smart work by David Byrne and Jim James”. While SeattlePi claims Simpson’s music echoes “Bowie, and Beck in the melodies, moods, and arrangements. The quest is entertaining and thought-provoking.” His genre-spanning career has included making records and touring as a singer/songwriter with luminaries as diverse as The Black Keys’ Dan Auerbach, bluegrass giant Ricky Skaggs and Mumford and Sons. Since leaving his hometown of Ft Worth Texas with only a fiddle, guitar, mandolin and a box fan to his name, Simpson has had many of his original songs recorded by country music standouts like Blake Shelton, Tim McGraw, Hailey Whitters, Kenny Chesney, George Strait, Brandy Clark, Old Dominion, Stephen Wilson Jr., with several of them ending up with a number 1 beside their name on the Billboard and Music Row charts . He has also been awarded NSAI’s prestigious award of “10 Songs I wish I’d Written”. His songs have easily totaled over 500 million streams at this point.
This year Simpson released his first record under his own name. “The Oldest”, released in April, is a concise 11 songs in length, produced by Eddie Spear (Zach Bryan/Brandi Carlisle) and takes Simpson’s shade tree kaleidoscopic storytelling center stage.

Think Texas Gulf Coast meets Muscle Shoals &#8212; songs carved and weaved by hand with a storyteller’s heart &#8212; that is the magic of Shinyribs.
We will maybe never know what Shinyribs is. Sometimes, it’s a sprawling multi-piece ensemble slapping the air until it grooves; sometimes he’s a somber subtle songwriter pouring poetry on the ground from a cup half full. Either way it’s always the house-party-meets-library that is, Kevin Russell.
Raised in Beaumont, TX, and Shreveport, LA—the cradle of swamp pop, Leadbelly, and bayou R&amp;B—Russell distills those regional sounds into something both timeless and immediate, dripping from his fingers like honey, salt &amp; fat. Think Texas Gulf Coast meets Muscle Shoals,songs carved and weaved by hand with a storyteller’s heart.
Shinyribs evolved from a solo residency Russell began under that moniker in the mid-2000s,after an incident in a Houston club, playing a private party for a group of welders where he bought a homeless woman a plate of ribs. “Her name was Roberta,” says Russell. “She was a high priestess of transistor radios and an almost forgotten music she called ‘Chilibump.’ For that plate of Ribs that night she gave me in return a name, Shinyribs and a road map to the mysterious big thicket sounds I had only heard of from old timers and time travelers.”
With Leaving Time produced by David Beck (Texan Weekend, Blue Healer), Russell parks the party bus behind the venue and sits in a lawn chair in the street lights with the bugs and a dingy moon. Joined by extraordinary bassist, arranger and co-producer, Mason Hankamer, keyboardist Johnny Keys(Uncle Lucius), drummer Dees Stribling and Mr. Beck singing gourd-like harmonies while handling multiple Instrumental touches, Leaving Time is a departure and an arrival showcase of Russell’s long evolution as a classic Texas songwriter. The songs reconnect with Russell’s literary roots, the folk and country influences that shaped his work with The Gourds, and the ever-present irreverence guiding his musical journey since his early years.
Kevin Russell &#8211; Shinyribs &#8211; invites you into his junkyard of juke, his shack of shakin’ souls, for a Sunday evening sit down, a slow sound for a sweet night. When the time is just right forLeaving, let ya mind wander into believing.
It’s Leaving Time.

Join acclaimed solo artist and Grammy-winning songwriter Kendell Marvel for an evening of storytelling in the Neon Steeple.
Get ready for a funky good time when Martha High’s Funky Divas, backed by the Fred Wesley and The New JBs, perform a power-packed show of hots and standards from those who played and sang with the Godfather of Soul, James Brown.
Martha Harvin began singing in The Four Jewels, whose members attended the same church and school and went on tour with James Brown in 1964. They did record two singles while they toured with Brown, but after a year and a half with Brown the group split up. Not ready to leave the tour, Harvin asked Brown if she could stay. Brown agreed, but he required her name change from Harvin to the stage name High.
She continued singing with Brown for the next 30-plus years, including her unmistakable high soprano falsetto wail on “The Big Payback.” She appeared with Brown on the track “Summertime” and on the “Original Funky Divas”album.
Joining Martha in the Divas will be Kelly Jarrell, who sang in Brown’s background group The Bittersweets from 1994 until his death in 2006, and Darlene Parker, who along with Martha were backing vocalists in the touring band of Maceo Parker, Brown’s iconic and beloved sax player.
Legendary bandleader, trombonist and author Fred Wesley is one of the forefathers of funk, still setting the standard with his jazz-funk band The New JBs. Together at its core for more than 30 years, the band is a living celebration of roots funk and more, performing such hits as “Pass the Peas” made with James Brown and the JBs including Maceo Parker, as well as selections from the P-Funk years and Fred’s own and others’ soulful jazz, funk and blues compositions.
Born in Columbus, Georgia, and raised in Mobile, Ala., Fred began his career as a teenage trombonist with Ike and Tina Turner. He later was music director, arranger, trombonist and a primary composer for Brown from 1968-1975, then arranged for and played with Parliament-Funkadelic and Bootsy’s Rubber Band.
With Brown, Fred became “the world’s most famous sideman, orchestrating the sinuous grooves and contributing the bold, surgically precise solos that defined the language of funk.” He helped take funk to the next level withGeorge Clinton and Bootsy Collins.Fred has recorded a dozen solo albums including the cult favorite “House Party,” and his latest, “From The Blues and Back,” released in 2024. He is featured in the Oscar-winning documentary “When We Were Kings” and countless other documentaries and books about funk, and gives master classes around the world.
His critically acclaimed memoir “Hit Me, Fred: Recollections of a Side Man” (Duke University Press, 2002) chronicles in hilarious stories a half century of music history through the eyes of one of the world’s most-sampled musicians.Also a veteran of the Count Basie Orchestra, Fred has worked with scores of other artists, from Ray Charles toTrombone Shorty. His other current project is the jazz organ trio Generations.

Thom Shepherd Presents The Songwriters | Neon Steeple | Chief's on Broadway

Join us for an evening in The Neon Steeple with UK based British/American West Coast Yacht Rock duo Young Gun Sliver Fox.
Musical chemistry is a rare, intangible thing. But for Andy Pla:s and Shawn Lee, the creative force behind Young Gun Silver Fox the unmalleable, unspoken connection that gives their work such a unique and distinctive sound was apparent from their first experiences in a studio together.
Alongside their now decade plus long tenure as Young Gun Silver Fox where they have built up a growing fanbase which includes the likes of Hans Zimmer, Jeff Lyne, and The Black Pumas to name a few, both have already received plaudits for their individual creative excursions. American born, UK based musician Shawn Lee through his own extensive catalogue of recordings with the likes of Shawn Lee’s Ping Pong Orchestra and his well-received solo albums, as well as a go to award winning producer and multi-instrumentalist for the likes of James Morrison and Joel Culpepper, and more recently musical director and drummer for the legendary Asha Puthli in Europe, USA &amp; Australia . Meanwhile the multitalented Andy Platts is the chief songwriter and leader of much loved Brit-soul sensations Mamas Gun. He’s also clocked up a plethora of song writing collaborations with legends such as Rod Temperton and Brian Jackson, as well as writing songs for the forthcoming album of rising UK soul star MT Jones for this forthcoming debut album and they both co wrote the title track of the latest Take That album ‘This Life’ which went to number 1 in the UK charts.
Of their initial hook up Shawn explains that “It was about 2006 when we came across each other on Myspace and I checked out Andy and saw that he knew a couple of the same people, and I was impressed with his talents so I sent him a message saying we should hook up and do something, and he never got back to me of course! But maybe it was around 2009 when we first spoke.”
Taking their name from Andy’s standing as youngest band member and Shawn’s resplendent silver locks, and sensing they were kindred musical spirits, the duo set about creating their 2015 debut West End Coast, bonding over a shared love of the smooth sounds of ’70s pop-soul and artist’s such as Ned Doheny, Hall &amp; Oates, Steely Dan and the breezy, west coast stylings that had been in Shawn’s musical DNA since his youth. “I remember at one point thinking Steely Dan was the ultimate group because they had hit singles and were on the radio and I’m like ‘man they’re accessible and they’re in the mainstream but their music is so sophisticated and so musical and they have the best playing and the best arrangements.’ I just thought if you could do that then you’ve won, that’s the ultimate thing musically for me that if I could do something like that, that had all those qualities but was still accessible then you’re killing it. Music like that and bands like that are rare, it’s a really special thing. And there’s something about Young Gun Silver Fox that’s winning on those two fronts.”
The release of their 2015 debut album West End Coast was timely, riding in at the beginning of an overdue reappraisal of the previously maligned world of music that became (unfairly) grouped under the then fashionable ‘Yacht Rock’ tag, and Young Gun Silver Fox came straight out the box with a perfectly curated record that fused all the best components of mid ’70s to early ’80s contemporary pop and soul. Much to their own surprise, the band immediately found its audience. “We were surprised,” explains Andy, “we were making it for us and we thought we’d try and put it out and it would be great to even play it live but we had no idea that it would find the audience that we hoped it might find, and we got really lucky in places like Holland where it really took off and we were playing big venues.”
If West End Coast lit a musical spark then follow up AM Waves, released in 2018 fanned the flames and helped turn Young Gun Silver Fox into a self-made success story, showing a growing synergy between the two musicians that shone through on tunes like the deep, funky pop of ‘Caroline’, ‘Lenny’s deceptively poignant balladry and the beachside disco of ‘Kingston Boogie’. “After the first album was done it was like ‘yeah, this really works and this feels good’ and we’d only just scratched the surface of it” says Andy. “So by the time we hit AM Waves we were really confidently digging in and chomping at the bit really.”
Continuing to build on the reputation forged from their recorded output, Shawn and Andy followed up with stellar live shows and a touring schedule that took them round the world, finding fans in the many far flung corners of the world and securing the endorsement of musical legends. “I was surprised to discover how many Brazilian musicians were fans when I was in Rio doing some recording,” enthuses Shawn, “and I was very pleased to hear that Jeff Lynne from ELO was a big fan.”
2020’s Canyons cemented the band as a permanent fixture in people’s hearts and minds and elevated them to the status afforded on their own musical heroes, nailing the tricky skill of making deceptively layered and richly arranged music sound effortless. Whether through the easy rollin’ groove of opener ‘Kids’, euphoric horn blasts of ‘Dream Woman’ or masterful song writing of closing piano ballad ‘All This Love’, this was a band revelling in reaching new heights.
The pandemic induced lockdown, provided time for the duo to reflect but not to rest on their laurels, and October 2022 saw the band release their fourth work to date, the aptly titled Ticket To Shangri La, a culmination of everything the band do best, and a record that transports you to musical paradise the second the piano stabs of opener &#8216;Still Got It Goin’ On’ kick in and the one-two sucker punch of second track (and the albums lead single) ‘West Side Jet’ lifts you off your feet with its four to the floor rhythm and joy-inducing chorus.
The last albums genesis came from the sharing of songs and recordings online, with each member embellishing the other’s tunes, whether that was Andy adding melodies and lyrics or Shawn laying down extra instrumentation. Says Andy of the process; “When Shawn sends me stuff all the musical variables are done so it’s out of my hands and that’s great but it’s horrible as well, because I get to see Shawn’s mind working and he’s given me his stuff but I might think ‘I wouldn’t put that chord there I’d do that’ and I think ‘oh fuck, how do I work with this!’ I really enjoy that because it keeps you on your toes and you don’t rest on your laurels, you got to bring your ‘A’ game and scrub up!” And although Shawn’s desire was to up the groove factor on this album, as always it comes down to choosing the absolute best songs. “I knew it was gonna be coming down to what the best songs are, I do think it’s an album of bangers though, the whole first five or six songs hit you and there hasn’t been another one of our records like that, it’s strong man.”
Three years later the band are preparing to release their fifth album ‘Pleasure’, a`er an insanely busy year completing their largest US tour to date in 2024 as well as touring Europe, including supporting The Black Pumas both in the US &amp; UK, who personally asked for them to support them, as they are such big fans of the band.
‘Pleasure’ took on a different and more personable recording process, after four albums with both musicians laying down ideas in their own studios and sending files back and across via email. Shawn in London and Andy in Norfolk, this album Shawn travelled to Andy’s studio The Prairie for four days in December 2024 and back again in January 2025. The duo commenced furiously writing &amp; recording ideas from a completely blank slate. Over half of the album&#8217;s 10 songs were birthed from these in-person sessions. This was a real game changer and evolution of the game for Andy and Shawn.
The only additional musicians on the album are the horn players. Nichol Thomson trombone &amp; arrangements, Tom Walsh on trumpet &amp; Graeme Blevins on sax and flute. The rest is handled by Andy and Shawn. Andy engineered these sessions and the album was later mixed &amp; finished at Shawn’s London studio with Pierre Duplan, helping engineer and mix it.
“At this point YGSF are continuing to build on their back catalogue and we are constantly thinking about using our collective strengths to evolve”, explains Andy.
What happens next is open to fate, but one certainty is that Andy and Shawn will continue to come up with the goods. “The ‘West Coast’ vibe was really a jumping off point initially,” says Andy. “The more music we make, the more it really is all about what Shawn &amp; I do together naturally, and so that’s evolving the MO of the whole project all the time in a really natural way.”

Built from the bar up in the city of Boston, Dalton &amp; the Sheriffs’ “Something From Nothing Tour” is the perfect night out: equal parts hard-to-describe and hard-to-forget.
In their hometown, the band regularly headlines major Live Nation venues. In 2023, the band booked the 5,000-capacity LeaderBank Pavilion on June 24th, before launching a residency at the Citizens House of Blues, where they played seven headlining shows from August to December. They were also selected as opening week headliners at the brand new MGM Music Hall at Fenway, alongside Chris Stapleton, Bruno Mars,and James Taylor.
This independent band’s mission is spreading joy and building community through epic sing-a-longs. Whether it&#8217;s a song from their road-worn catalog, or a cover that they play as if they wrote it, the band’s unique focus on fun has built satellite communities of 300+ in New York City, Chicago, Washington, DC, and Burlington, VT, with a growing presence in Los Angeles, Nashville, San Diego, the Carolinas and Denver.

Join us in The Neon Steeple for an evening with Love and Theft, the country duo built around the striking harmonies of Eric Gunderson and Stephen Barker Liles.
Love and Theft are a Country act built around the striking harmonies of Eric Gunderson and Stephen Barker Liles. After a pair of early hits &#8212; &#8220;Runaway&#8221; went to 10 in 2009, &#8220;Angel Eyes&#8221; topped the charts in 2011 &#8212; they settled into a relaxed, melodic groove that allowed them to slightly adapt to the times. Initially resembling a stripped-down Rascal Flatts, by the time the group released their fourth album, Need to Breathe, in 2023, the duo showed they could cannily add an adult alternative flair without losing their Country flavor.
Formed in Nashville in 2006. Initially, vocalists and songwriters Gunderson, Liles, and Brian Bandas took turns singing leads, while the other two sang gorgeous backing harmonies. Versatile, bright-sounding, and with a clear sense of pop-country arrangement, Love and Theft&#8217;s live shows brought them an enthusiastic fan base. After playing a showcase for ASCAP representatives, Love and Theft were offered a deal with the Disney-affiliated Country label Lyric Street Records.
Working with producers Jeff Coplan and Robert Ellis Orrall, the trio released its debut album, World Wide Open, in the middle of 2009. The album&#8217;s first single, &#8220;Runaway,&#8221; peaked at number ten on the Country singles chart, while the album also cracked the Country Top Ten. However, Lyric Street and CarolWood were closed by Disney in April 2010, and the group went looking for a new label. Bandas left the band in 2011, and Gunderson and Liles continued as a duo. The two-piece Love and Theft were signed to RCA Nashville later that same year. A single, &#8220;Angel Eyes,&#8221; was a major Country hit, rising to number one on the C&amp;W singles charts, while the subsequent album, simply called Love and Theft, went to number four on the Country albums survey. However, Love and Theft had completed most of their third album when they fell into a dispute with RCA Nashville, and they parted ways with the label.
Launching their own Hate &amp; Purchase Music, Love and Theft self-released Whiskey on My Breath in February 2015. The album&#8217;s title track rose to 31 on the Country singles chart, and in 2016 the duo signed with Curb Records, which soon reissued Whiskey on My Breath.
Although Love and Theft immediately started releasing singles on Curb, it took a while for the duo to complete their fourth album. Need to Breathe finally appeared in December 2023, nearly nine years after Whiskey on My Breath.
