HARPER O’NEILL

Harper O’Neill, one of the most exciting young voices to come out of Nashville, recently released her debut album Dark Bar Daisy which Billboard hailed for its, “wisened vocals, which expertly bends notes and imbues the lyrics with the husky realism of someone who has lived, loved, lost and seen a few things,”.  After quitting her job and packing up her life to move to Nashville, Jody Williams Songs signed her to a publishing deal on the spot after hearing her songs for the first time. Harper has cultivated a fresh take on Texas soul music, her smokey and signature “night cap country sound”. O’Neill has recently been on the road with Abraham Alexander, Lainey Wilson, Corey Kent, and Ashley McBryde.

KASSI ASHTON

With a little bit of rock, a hell of a lot of soul, and a throwback R&B groove, MCA Nashville’s Kassi Ashton is set to take the music world by storm.   “Kassi Ashton is in line for Nashville domination, and she’ll do it her way – unapologetically,” proclaims PEOPLE Magazine. The California, Missouri singer/songwriter touched down with a string of critically acclaimed tracks released by UMG Nashville in conjunction with Interscope Records. Her introductory release “California, Missouri” stirred widespread critical acclaim from Taste of Country, CMT, The Boot, and many more. Kassi was also named as an Artist to Watch by Huffington Post, The Tennessean, and radio personality Bobby Bones. Rolling Stone lauds her as “a devilish songwriter who isn’t afraid to flip convention on its head,” while Refinery29 claims, “she blends pop aesthetics with a presence doused in no-fucks-left-to-give authenticity,” PAPER Magazine calls her “the next big country superstar,” and American Songwriter notes, “Ashton brings powerful storytelling and a sense of poetry in every release.”   Kassi defies convention and continues to deliver her signature style with confessional, catchy storytelling and dynamic vocal performances on songs including critically acclaimed releases “Called Crazy,” “The Straw,” “Drive You Out of My Mind,” “Dates In Pickup Trucks,” “Heavyweight,” “California, Missouri,” “Hopeless,” “Violins,” and more.   This year, Kassi continues to disrupt the country scene with her long-awaited debut album, Made From The Dirt, released September 20th to praise from People, Rolling Stone, Billboard, and more. The album dishes hard-won lessons rooted in tangled family ties, relationship tussles, and wrenching grief, wrapped up in hook-heavy, country-tinged singalongs, where Kassi's husky, soulful tones will stop you dead in your tracks.
