Musician Bios: 

Love and Theft - 

Love and Theft is an American country music group founded by Stephen Barker Liles, Eric Gunderson, and Brian Bandas, all three of whom alternated as lead singers and acoustic guitarists. Signed to Lyric Street Records subsidiary Carolwood Records in 2009, Love and Theft made their chart debut in early 2009 with the single "Runaway," which reached the Top 10 on Billboard Hot Country Songs. The band's debut album, World Wide Open, was released on August 25, 2009.

Elvis Monroe - 

In 2008, two small towns on opposite sides of the globe came together when guitarist Ben Carey from Bairnsdale, Victoria, Australia met singer/songwriter Bryan Hopkins from Salem, Oregon. When their paths initially crossed, Ben was a member of multi-platinum recording artist LIFEHOUSE and Bryan was the frontman for Hollywood-based and award winning rock band Paperback Hero.

Ben and Bryan's deep roots and vibrant history in music created an immediate bond, and their times hanging out together led to impromptu songwriting sessions. The songs they wrote in those sessions gave a voice to their lifelong stories and became the foundation for ELVIS MONROE.

Morgan Myles - 

Powerhouse vocalist/singer-songwriter Morgan Myles is one of those artists that makes it look and sound so easy. The soulful country artist and Pennsylvania native, who has made Nashville home, has already earned critical acclaim from outlets such as Billboard, CMT, People and Rolling Stone, with Rolling Stone saying “a voice that shines with raw might in its upper register.

Justin Biltonen - 

Justin is a Country Artist and Singer Songwriter from Arden, North Carolina. Growing up in the heyday of classic 90’s Country sparked his passion for music. Like many artists, he started playing guitar and singing in church worship groups in high school, however in 2004, fired by rebellious excitement, he began touring the country playing southern fried Rock n’ Roll.

Hope Cassity - 

A singer and songwriter from Nashville, Hope Cassity has a story to tell and a heart to tell  it. She makes her mark  in the hearts of the towns she visits. In 2018, just days after signing a major radio deal and tour that would have been a turning point in her career, Hope was diagnosed with a rare form of  ovarian cancer that occurs in only 1% of women her age.  She was told without surgery and chemo she could have just  months to live, but she kept on hoping as her namesake says. 

Now, four years later, she’s on the  road to recovery and burning up the road miles on tour. Fans rave about her powerful voice, but her ability to connect so honestly with her fans and audience is what sets her apart. Hope Cassity is an act to hear not only for her authenticity in crafting a song that hits home, but also for the guts to survive anything and keep going despite all odds.
