Mike Thomas

July 11th, 2022

Being in Nashville, you’d think I’d produce a lot of Country music.  Nothing could be further from the truth.  If the artist is real with great lyrics , great songs and speaks to me personally, then I’ll produce it.  It doesn’t matter the genre.  Such is the case with Mike Thomas. An engaging song writer, with a keen sense of melody that makes for some great songs.  Check out Mike’s stuff at Mikethomas.com

 

Phillip Micheal Scales

September 16th, 2020

Growing up, Phillip-Michael Scales had an uncle who played guitar for a living. He knew it was a big deal but didn’t understand the significance that his Uncle’s name was B.B. King. Even though Phillip-Michael played guitar, he shied away from soloing and most things blues. Instead, he fell in love with songwriting when an english teacher told him “A great writer can make their reader identify with anyone.” The trouble was he couldn’t find his story in the blues.  

It wasn’t until his Uncle passed away, that Scales began incorporating more of the blues into his music. “These days I’m finding more of my story in the blues. A lot has led me here between politics, my identity, and of course: Legacy.” The result is a sound he calls “Dive Bar Soul” which takes a bit of indie rock story telling and couples it with the passion of the blues.

Paul Layton

October 1st, 2018

Please check out Paul Layton at @https://www.facebook.com/paullayton and all over the web.  This guy is such a great songwriter.  He’s also had some pretty massive syncs in film and with A&E Sports 2018.  He definitely brings his own brand of California Country blended with some pop americana goodness.   This Ep will feature the incredible Elton Charles on drums, his sister Laura on bgvs and Paul and I on everything else.  This kind of music needs to be heard today and I can’t wait for you guys to check it out.

Colin B

January 27th, 2017

Colin Edward is a song writing, guitar playing, singing machine.  He totally gives 100% every time and has some of the coolest songs I’ve ever been a part of.  Outside of his band Foxtrot & The Get Down, this is his first solo record.  The band is Brad Pimberton (Ryan Adams and The Cardinals, Steve Earle),  Chris Tench (Julie Chistensen, David Neubold)  Colin  and myself on bass.  This is why I do what I do.    Great project that I cant wait for everyone to hear.
