MATT ROY

I am a country singer-songwriter from New Jersey. I have been cutting my teeth in Nashville for the past two years and making important connections within the music industry. Through this time, I have created a niche of songwriters, which has lead to an improvement of songwriting and success. This success includes a cut on Kane Brown's upcoming album (Pull It Off).

CARTER HARRELL

My name is Carter Harrell. I am an indie folk singer/songwriter currently based in Nashville, TN. Born and raised in Nairobi, Kenya, I grew up in a different musical environment than most. But from an early age, I knew I wanted to pursue my passion of music. Despite the limitations of living far from a thriving music industry, I invested myself into writing and recording my own music. I engaged the local music scene, performing wherever I could, and my first recorded song became a number one single on the local radio charts. In the fall of 2013 I moved to Nashville, TN and am currently a student at Belmont University and pursuing my career as a musician.

I create music that speaks to a blend of folk and popular styles, with a uniquely raw and organic sound that mends with the honest experiences and emotions portrayed in the lyrics.

LUKE OLSON

My name is Luke Olson. I was born and raised in Washington State. I am currently in a band with my brother called "The Olson Bros Band" which we started about 4 years ago where we have kept busy touring on and off the past few years! I grew up loving sports, the outdoors, and have always loved listening to all types of music including rock, hip-hop and especially country.
