Drawing from many different musical influences, Scott Nicks is a “melody-first” singer-songwriter. Originally from Truro, NS, Scott has released three full-length records and multiple EPs since 2006. His music has gone through many permutations, from quietly introspective folk, to heavily distorted indie rock dripping with sludge, to bright piano pop epics lush with symphonic instrumentation. Scott Nicks is backed by seasoned musicians in drummer Jordan Murphy (Walrus), bassist Andrew Mawko (Verry Gerry) and guitarist Justin McGrath (Shadow Folk). Having a significant amount of unreleased music and taken a nearly decade-long hiatus from playing his own music, Scott and his band are back to play a mix of older songs and newer unreleased material that will leave you wanting more.

Jake Ballard is an uncompromising DIY artist based out of Dartmouth, Nova Scotia. Known for his signature fingerpicking guitar style and electrifying live performances, Jake’s sound is a mosaic of roots-rock, psychedelic and acoustic soundscapes drawing influences from across the 20th century, anything from Link Wray to The Cranberries. Over the last three years, Ballard and his band have become a staple of the music scene on the east coast, performing hundreds of shows around the Maritimes and releasing three full length albums (Madness - 2022, Songs From the Wishing Well - 2023 and Silver Bloom - 2024).

Touched are based in Dartmouth, NS. They collaborate to express their ideas by combining poetry, melody, and rhythm, always seeking simplicity and newness. Yacht rock R&B and Retro Pop.
