Clementine Was Right is the songwriting project of poets Mike Young and Gion Davis. Chronicling years of uprooting—from Northern California to New England, Alaska to New Mexico—the music gallops and sways through hook-smeared bootgaze and western emo. The band is based in Denver and features an orchard of collaborators from the Sierra Nevadas to the Ozarks, complicating and queering the lineage of "country music" with yokel fuzz.

Mike Young is the songwriter for Clementine Was Right and author of Sprezzatura (Publishing Genius 2014, poems), We Are All Good If They Try Hard Enough (Publishing Genius 2010, poems), and Look! Look! Feathers (Word Riot Press 2010, stories). He lives in Denver, CO.

Gion Davis is a trans poet from Española, New Mexico where he grew up on a sheep ranch. His debut collection Too Much (2022) received the 2021 Ghost Peach Press Prize selected by Chen Chen. He graduated with their MFA in Poetry from the University of Massachusetts Amherst in 2019 and currently lives in Denver, Colorado. Gion can be found on Instagram @starkstateofmind & on Twitter @gheeontoast.

Claire Nichols serves a sucker punch of pop prowess on a platter of biting lyricism and lush instrumentals. A flight of Nichols’ songs leaves a bold but bittersweet aftertaste; while “Aperol Spritz” is liquid confidence carbonated with spunk and seduction, “Kicking and Screaming” is a fireball shot, coaxing you toward a rage room of indie-pop angst. Her impending single, “Fleamarket Furniture” embodies Nichols’ storytelling capabilities, is cathartic, self-deprecating, and refreshingly candid.

Claire Nichols has paved herself an intersection of pop, somewhere between FLETCHER, Lorde, and Maisie Peters, but determinedly, entirely her own.

Coulter Lee Brown is a singer/songwriter, recording artist, performer, and multi-instrumentalist from Houston TX. His music lives in the cracks between genres. A vintage sound that nods to his influences — blues drenched rock & roll, electrified Americana, wailing soul, R&B, funk-inspired pop — while still breaking new ground, pushing Coulter into art that is uniquely his own. Him and his band, the Bad Habits, are the product of what happens when you mix Texas blood with hard hitting lyrics. These lyrics have always been the lifeblood of Coulter's music and the care he has for them can be felt in the way he crafts each unique line. In 2023, Coulter’s 2019 hit single “Love Marks” was placed on iHeartRadio’s aBreak music top 58 playlist attracting thousands of listeners and hundreds of votes. It has remained strong on the playlist since May of 2023 and continues to climb the charts.

While earning his B.S. in Songwriting from the award winning staff at the University of Colorado Denver, Coulter focused on bringing the same vivacity to his live shows as he did in his songwriting. Having performed across Colorado and Texas, Coulter’s live shows have become a vessel, taking audiences across a spectrum of the blues-rock, pop, and Americana genres. Interested in catching the Bad Habits live? Coulter is a regular at the iconic Rustic venues throughout Houston and plans on expanding to more locations soon. In June of this year he played a packed show at The Dosey Doe Big Barn in The Woodlands, TX, and has just announced an intimate EP Release show at The Dosey Doe BBQ on November 10th. He currently resides in Houston and works to lead the next generation of musicians at his music school The Rehearsal Room. Coulter is recording his second EP, which you can get a preview of by streaming his latest single, “Bad News” now.
