  • Jaye Madison

    Where Southern Grit meets Feminine Flair…

    Born one minute apart, Jordan and Madison Skinner don't know life without each other. It seems as if the twins were always meant to be halves of a whole.

    Having grown up surrounded by the diverse music of Southeast Texas, the sisters drew upon their southern influences to create their own unique brand through the duo Jaye Madison. Blues, rock, country, and folk all contribute to their contemporary soulful Americana sound. They are built in best friends and co-writers!

    Their release "Down" has gained international airplay and has surpassed 100k streams on Spotify. Their live performance video of their original "Pedestal" aired on "Today in Nashville", they will be back on the show for a live in studio performance November of this year.

    This dynamic duo recently recorded their debut album at Revolver Recordings in Los Angeles to work in conjunction with Grammy Award Winning Producer Mikal Blue (OneRepublic, Colbie Caillat, Jason Mraz) and Dean Dinning of Chart-topping band Toad the Wet Sprocket. Their most recent release, BFF Summer Anthem, "Ride or Die" is out everywhere now!

  • Bison Bone

    Bison Bone is an Americana Rock and Roll band from Denver, CO.

    Bison Bone is a little bit country, a little bit rock & roll, and fully led by the boisterous singer/songwriter Courtney Whitehead. The veneer of their “Americana Rock & Roll band” description doesn’t seem to phase the group, as is apparent in their newest album, Find Your Way Out. Whitehead has unabashedly embraced the spirit of the aforementioned term, almost to the point of mockery. The Denver-based band seems fully aware of the connotations surrounding surface level labels and uses it to their advantage by tricking listeners into thinking they are listening to something they are not. It would be easy to think Bison Bone is just another simplistic Americana band, but this is not the case. - Bandwagon Mag 2020

  • Britt Devens

    Britt Devens is a sober, LGBTQ-friendly musician who writes songs about hope, heartbreak, and recovery. A native of Fort Collins, CO, Devens uses her music to explore the vulnerabilities of her own experiences in life and to remind her audience of the importance of self care. Championing a message of taking care of yourself - both mentally and physically - Devens’ music is for people who can relate to a struggle but still continue to have hope for a brighter day. Open about her own experiences, Devens is able to perform without using any substances… something that allows her to speak her absolute truth and share her vulnerability through the intimate lyrics and songs that she creates. Strong, emotive vocals complement her unique guitar style, making her a real standout in a sea of singer-songwriters. “If just one person can resonate with my music, then I will have given back hope like music has given me hope through some of my hardest times.” Britt has released a number of singles and EPs; her most recent effort, Back to Me, was released in October 2021. She is currently in the studio with her full band with intentions of releasing a 10 track album by Fall of 2022.
