Jeffrey James, a twenty-three year old singer songwriter out of Indianapolis, IN, has been creating and performing music since he was a teenager. With his smooth, alternative voice and a jaunty, rhythmic pop/rock vibe, Jeffrey is now residing in Nashville, TN and striving to break into the music industry. Jeff has a unique sound that is darker and blues-ier than most artists on the market. His original songs are typically upbeat and rhythmic. "I believe music should connect with people. I think music can still do that without being depressing," Jeff says. "I want to make music that people can enjoy. When fans can't sit still, that's when I'm most satisfied."
Jeffrey recently released his first full length album titled, Just Right, which is available on iTunes now.

The Avery Set is a strong cocktail of sorts. Capable of seamlessly transcending genres
such as rock, country and folk, Nashville-based The Avery Set will whisk you away in a
time machine back to the 50's to shake hands with Johnny Cash, stop to have tea with
Leonard Cohen, and finally, talk politics with Conor Oberst. It all started in a small,
Michigan tourist town with high school friends, singer/songwriter Chris Zehnder and
drummer Jake Bartlett. "Jake and I have been playing music together going on six years
now. We know each other's styles so well, it's almost as if we can talk without speaking",
says Zehnder. With Brandon Harris on guitar and Shawn Supra on upright and electric
bass, The Avery Set has been playing in support of their latest record, Returning to
Steam. The album was received with wild applause from a sold out theatre in their home
state, receiving illustrious media attention and even deemed a "masterpiece" by the
Review Magazine. These four young friends and their ability to make music together are
the key ingredients for a successful future.

2010 brought a flood to the city of Nashville that will never be forgotten. Losing almost everything that had any value to them, Solo artists John Michael and Dayna Duncan found each other weeks later in an attempt to record the new John Michael EP, where Dayna was hired on to record piano tracks and vocals. After the first practice, both found a connection musically and decided to turn the solo acts into a duo project. "See Three" then recorded a 5 song EP with WaterWorks Entertainment Studios in Nashville with talented Producer and Engineer, Rosemary Haskins. The EP is to be released July 9th, 2010. Stay tuned for more updates from "See Three!"

With a trademark sound of lush instrumentation, including layers of guitars, cello, viola, and dreamy synths; a unique blend of art-rock alternative has emerged. Hailing from East Nashville, Tennessee, The Auto Defiance is led by enigmatic songwriter Bradley Boyer. Joining to build this ornately complex wall of sound is a small collective of fellow indie musicians who, like Boyer, share a love for playing heavy, atmospheric songs, which take you from high-energy anthems to melodramatic ballads. Based in the heart of the artsy 5-points district in East Nashville, the band has turned it up a notch, adding live Viola and Cello alongside eerie, ambient vintage film footage projected onto the band.

Creating music without boundaries, The Auto Defiance playfully blurs the lines between alternative,indie Rock, and post punk. Writing in collaboration while holding regular studio sessions since becoming a band, the live performance is about exploring new sonic and visual film territory together. Small events that would mean little to the untrained eye, through Boyer's work are magnified to form a magical something greater in all of us. Inspired by larger than life characters such as pop artist Andy Warhol, to vocalists such as Jeff Buckley, and Morrissey of The Smiths; The Auto Defiance fully understand the power of iconography in music.

June 2009, their self-released EP "Damiana's Dream" carries you into a five song mini-melodrama. Soaked with cello, strings and a thick dose of guitars; each song tells a story. With Kory Murphy adding heavy guitar, feedback and synthy electronica over live stacked Cello and Viola string arrangements, which warmly blend together over Bradley's rhythmic acoustic guitar. Auto Defiance chameleon-like creation of grandiose art rock music is both endearing and inspiring
