Sunny Sweeney
The mastery of holes in the wall, major label stint, and serious songwriting chops make Sunny Sweeney something of a rarity: an artist with barroom cred, mainstream validation, and songs meaty enough for listening rooms. Or, as Rolling Stone put it: “Sweeney is one of the rare entertainers who can hold her own at CMA Fest as well as AmericanaFest.”
Just as comfortable commanding a stadium stage on tour with Bob Seger as she is pouring her heart out from a listening-room stool, she is an outlier: A humble East Texas kid with super-star chops, singing her own songs made up of equal parts wit, soul, and hard truth. Seven albums into a career that has earned praise from Rolling Stone, NPR, American Songwriter, and more, Sunny has drawn a loyal following, experienced the business from every angle, and ultimately, embraced her independence––it's smart country music that likes to have its rock and honky tonk, too, and is that much better for it.
Sweeney will release a new studio album in 2025 produced by Sweeney and Harley Husbands.
Cam Pierce
The next chapter for Cam is led by the demarkation of the release of the aforementioned album which he and members of “The 400 Unit” recorded at FAME Studios in Muscle Shoals, Alabama. A 12 song ride through snapshots of life. A deep dive into the mind of a storyteller who's lived the tales. A visually driven record as rich in meaning as it is in tone and instrumentation. “A Thousand Lonely Horses” was released on January 12th 2025 and it is already become an audience favorite. In just 2 months the new record "A Thousand Lonely Horses" has amassed over 22,000 plays on Spotify alone.
Perhaps it’s his insatiable desire to create, his undeniable work ethic or his unrelenting desire for adventure and the details within that leads him to an utterly unique style of songwriting and composition. Elementary in nature but mature in sensibility. Vast in it’s array of genre and content. Much like life which is not naturally dominated by one thought or feeling, but a multitude of subtle nuances. Cam's stories seem to reach out and activate the imagination. Transporting the listener to another time, place and frame of mind. His is a unique take on the various styles of American Roots Music, Western, Country, Folk, Rock, Blues and Americana. With Cam, everything has a spice of “Western”. Cam Pierce's music isn't just a "retro throwback sound", it is something stylistically new, forged from the ore of the old.
As confessed previously Cam has an insatiable drive to create. He a prolific and unhinged writer with hundreds of record ready songs in his catalog being added to all the time. He has just began work on a “Songwriter’s Anthology” which, at least the first volume will be released in 2025 as a follow up to "A Thousand Lonely Horses"!
As far as the road stretches ahead. March, 2025 will see a string of dates throughout the midwest tethered to a run with the wonderful Ms. Sunny Sweeney. After supporting Sunny on a tour run through the Southeast June of 2024, he has been graciously invited back! The time in a more familiar area. Cam has been cultivating a following of bona fide folks in the Midwest for several years now and always looks forward to seeing his friends in the “middle”. On the schedule are dates in Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Nebraska, Missouri and Arkansas. Keep an eye out and ahead for this guy. There’s no ego, no grandiose dream of fame and stardust in his brain. Just a love and a hungry passion to tell stories and exchange experiences with others through words, melody and the road. He is a songwriter, a teller of things, plain and simple. A man who works diligently at his craft. A man who is just as thrilled to share songs around a campfire as he is playing the Country Music Hall of Fame. A simple man with an extraordinary knack for music creation.
