Kate Barnette (Atlanta, Georgia) with The LOVERS (Nashville, TN)

Raised in a small north-Georgia town, Kate began singing in church at the age of three. She soon discovered a passion for performing and did it everywhere she could - musicals, piano recitals, school talent shows, on her grandmother's fireplace, etc. She experimented with learning several different instruments over the years including piano, trumpet, drums, banjo, and bass, but recalls picking up her dad's acoustic guitar for the first time in middle school and falling in love. She began teaching herself and using it primarily as a tool for songwriting - one of her dearest passions. By the age of 18 Kate had written close to 100 songs, dropped out of school, and moved to Nashville to pursue writing. She now is 22 and living back home in Atlanta, where she plays music full-time. Her self-titled, debut album is scheduled to release FALL 2017, which include a collection of songs she has written and co-produced.

Originally from Dayton, Ohio, Amanda June made her way down to Nashville to focus on her career as a singer, songwriter and develop her artistry. Amanda has been singing since she could talk and picked up the acoustic guitar around the age of 14. Influenced by Alison Krauss, Dixie Chicks and Sheryl Crow, she knew Nashville was where she needed to be and at 18 years young she took the leap. Amanda started playing as many shows and writers rounds around town as she made herself a familiar face. "Her music stands out among most contemporary country music in the sense that it's music with passion, soul and written from personal experience. With a down-to-earth sensibility and a smooth, sweet voice, Amanda's style blends perfectly with that of Cole Vosbury, a fellow artist who also heard Nashville calling his name."

     You may recognize Cole from Season 5 of NBC's The Voice in 2013. Cole, a Louisiana native, has been staying busy since then, playing shows frequently and collaborating with other artists, such as Amanda June. Cole has been playing music most of his life. He has been perfecting his craft of guitar for 12 years and playing music for a living since age 17. Cole's style stands out among others, his soulful, intriguing and gravelly voice compliments his blues, rock, country influenced playing on guitar.
