Born and raised in Alabama, Lamont Landers grew up absorbing the soulful sounds of the South that surrounded him. At the age of 14, he taught himself how to play guitar, and, at the age of 19, began singing. He spent years quietly honing his talents behind his bedroom doors, listening to records by Stevie Wonder, Al Green, Sly & The Family Stone, and Ray Charles on repeat. At the age of 22, a candid video recorded by his sister of Lamont performing the Ray Charles’ classic “Hit the Road Jack” went viral on YouTube and garnered over 400,000 views overnight. In the summer of 2023, history repeated itself with similar enthusiastic fan response propelling five Lamont Landers TikTok videos to over 1,000,000 views each. A feature on the Bobby Bones nationally syndicated radio show and shoutouts from music tastemakers ranging from Snoop Dogg to Questlove soon followed. No longer a secret of North Alabama, Lamont will be touring throughout North America in 2024.
KENNY SHARP:
Kenny Sharp is a singer-songwriter whose genre-bending sound has been dubbed “Brown Liquor Music.” Drawing from Soul, Blues, Americana, Hip-Hop, Pop, and Rock influences, he effortlessly weaves together these disparate styles with a powerful vocal performance that’s sure to leave you in awe. Born in Montgomery, Alabama to two Air Force officers, Kenny’s upbringing was defined by frequent moves and new experiences. In 2021, Citizen Cope invited Kenny to open for him at multiple shows at NYC’s City Winery. Also in 2021, Kenny caught the attention of former President Barack Obama, who listed song “Witchoo” as one of his favorite tracks of the year. The song, co-written by Kenny with Durand Jones and the Indications, is a testament to Kenny’s songwriting prowess and his ability to craft unforgettable melodies.
