Lewis Brice

There is a grit that seems to seep from every note Lewis Brice sings.

Brice started making substantial waves in the industry with 2010's "Ordinary Girl." He competed on CMT's Can You Duet? snagging a top ten spot after beating thousands of his fellow music-makers. He took the lead role in brother Lee Brice's "I Drive Your Truck" music video and took home a British CMA Award for "International Song of the Year" for his heartfelt song "Blessed." With more outstanding original tracks such as, "It's You (I've Been Looking for)" "Summertime Vibes", " Messin with my mind" and "Call Me Yours," Brice has surpassed over Fifty Million streams across the digital platforms.

He has received accolades from the likes of Rolling Stone and Billboard and has shared the stage with acts like Luke Bryan, Dierks Bently, Hank Williams Jr. Gary Allan and Lee Brice just to name a few.

But make no mistake - Brice is nowhere close to tying a shiny bow on life just yet. "I can still write songs about broken hearts and promises…because I've been there. But I've also got a lot of life experiences to share, both good and bad." With Lewis Brice, the glass is always half full. As in his song inspired by Matthew McConaughey's quote, "Let me tell you this, the older you do get, the more rules they're gonna try to get you to follow. You just gotta keep livin man, L.I.V.IN.

Levi Hummon

Singer-songwriter Levi Hummon spent his early 20s practicing his art, but his immersion into country music started much, much earlier. From the day he was born, his father Marcus Hummon, (one of Nashville's most prolific GRAMMY-winning songwriters [The Dixie Chicks, Tim McGraw, Rascal Flatts]) immersed Levi in the music scene, and It didn't take long to realize the apple didn't fall far from the tree.

At 24, Levi began releasing music of his own. Cleancut and compelling, he told stories of love and loss while building a loyal fanbase that has grown with him through every bend and break. As a Nashville native who was inspired by the legacies around him and had an undeniable gift of songwriting, it was no surprise that 5 years, 30 released songs, and 100 million streams later as an independent artist, Levi had created a name for himself.

In 2021, his viral Walker Hayes collaboration sensation "Paying for It" cemented Levi's status as a rising country star. This sparked a new sense of confidence both on stage and in writing rooms that allowed him to discover the magnitude of his potential as an artist, and a new authentic version of Levi emerged. His follow-up tunes, "Bottled Up," "For Me," "Good Riddance," and "Drink On" are the product of just that. Hummon says, "taking risks, finding my own voice, and showing the scars and roughness around the edges allowed me to portray the most honest version of myself".

Coming off of his first headlining tour in the Fall of '21, Levi found himself to be in high demand in the spring and summer of 2022. Warming up the stage for acts like Hardy, Jordan Davis, Brett Eldridge, Brett Young, and Dylan Scott, he was able to experience in person the effects of this momentum and the reward for being unapologetically himself.

While listeners across genres are creating the demand now more than ever for both a 90's country comeback and an early 2000's alternative rock revival, Levi's new music has established a unique lane paved by both the influence of bands like Maroon 5, Weezer, and The Clash, and the nashville community of songwriters he grew up with in his own backyard. As a country artist with now over 160 million streams, pulling from his skateboarding past, counter culture nostalgia and surfer aesthetic, Levi Hummon is paving the way for something big that hasn't quite been seen before.

While hellbent on carrying on the family legacy, Levi Hummon is very much here to write his own story. Named one of Entertainment Weekly's "5 Artists Breaking Now" and Rolling Stone Country's "One to Watch", it looks like his biggest chapter yet is right around the corner.

Soon after she established her online presence, her talent caught the attention of Flo Rida, leading to a record deal and an opportunity to tour with him from 2015 to 2017 during his My House album era.

In 2018, she took a step toward defining her own artistic path, signing with EMPIRE under Tina Davis. Her debut EP, released in 2019, featured "Cry For Help," a song that resonated widely and introduced her voice to a broader audience.

Surrounded by the mountains and a slower pace of life, MAYCE found herself drawn to the storytelling traditions of folk and country music. This shift in perspective helped her refine her songwriting and reconnect with her authentic self.

Her ability to capture relatable moments and raw feelings in her lyrics has become the heart of her music, drawing listeners to her unique voice as both a singer and a storyteller. With a renewed sense of purpose and a sound rooted in folk and country influences, MAYCE continues to create music that feels deeply personal yet universally understood.
