Macy Tabor is a 17 year old singer songwriter who is a force to be reckoned with. Her stage presence and impressive yodels, set her in a niche of her own. Compared to a young Dolly Parton, Loretta Lynn, Brenda Lee, or Tanya Tucker, this seasoned young artist has been said to have all the sassiness and class of her idols Shania Twain and Miranda Lambert.   Macy has been performing on stage since the wee age of four. She says the bigger the crowd to perform in front of, the better. That would explain why performing the National Anthem in front of nearly 10,000 spectators in attendance for the Vanderbilt Commodores, came so naturally for her. She has performed on stages from Los Angeles, CA, Ft. Myers, FL, Sevierville, TN, Chattanooga, TN, to where she can now be found performing regularly at some of Nashville's hottest spots. She has also performed on several different stages during the CMA Music Festival over the past several years.  As a former co-host on an internet radio show in Nashville called The Kids Radio Club Show, Macy was also a former emcee and performer on The Nashville Spotlight. In 2016, as a nominee in several categories, Macy had the honor of performing at the Schermerhorn Symphony Center during the Josie Music Awards for Independent Artist in Nashville, TN. She was the 2017 Young Adult Rising Star Award Winner at the JMAs. In 2018, Macy was nominated for Young Adult Vocalist and Young Adult Artist of The Year at The Josie Music Awards. With receiving three nominations in 2019, Macy brought home the JMA Young Adult Artist of The Year Award for Independent Artist. As winner of the first Lynchburg Winery Shine On Series Singer/Songwriter Competiton in 2018, Macy's songwriting has been compared to that of a young Taylor Swift's style of writing. Winning this competition gave her the opportunity to be the first artist to ever play on the main stage, of the first ever Lynchburg Music Festival in 2019.  In 2018, Macy held the title of Miss Lynchburg Outstanding Teen. She serves as a Lead Junior Spokesmodel for the Confidently Ready by Josie Passantino cosmetic, skin care, and hair care line. In her spare time, Macy enjoys volunteering in her community, and for any cause that is in support of our military and our veterans.   Macy serves as an advocate for Notes for Notes, which is a non-profit organization dedicated to providing youth with completely free access to music instruments, instruction, and recording studio environments. Her involvement with "Notes For Notes" lead her to being able to perform all four days at the 2019 Bonnaroo Music Festival, in her hometown of Manchester, TN, on the Musicians On Call Stage. She has also had the honor of being part of a collaboration with country music siinger/songwriter Kane Brown and US Bank at the Notes For Notes studio in Nashville. This was on a continuation series with the CMA Foundation to support music education opportunities in schools and nonprofit organizations where there is a great need.  Not only is she a sought after singer songwriter, she is also an accredited actress and model.

"I have been blessed with the experiences and people I've met along the way; allowing me to write about my encounters and thoughts as I have experienced them. Whether my songs be about love, loss, redemption or the road of life, they come from the heart. Just as a painter paints on a canvas, a musician paints on silence. I hope to connect with my audience on some level; if I do, I will have done my job. I hope you enjoy, and I hope you know how very much I thank you all. I give you, my debut – Lovers and Friends.  Come on in, sit a spell, have a listen! Drop me a line.  No Bad Days! Troy Hanna"

Jesse Lopez has been in Nashville full time since April 2019 after leaving the writing scene in LA for a more storytelling style of writing. Jesse's influences are Neal Young, Rob Thomas and the Zac Brown Band. I like to write songs that are close to my heart and all true stories. He immediately recorded his 5 song EP From Start to Finish under Century Music for a production deal and teamed up with KORE PR for the releases and radio tours while touring the country. Jesse did not stop his momentum during the quarantine as he self released a 2 song EP called Quarantine Made Me Do It where he wrote, recorded and shot the music video inside. He also started a virtual festival called Stream Fest with Freebird that is a fundraiser for our Nashville community featuring artists from all over the world. Jesse just finished up in the studio at Sound Kitchen with Dr. Ford on his next single that was co-written with Ryland Fisher (Whatcha Drinkin' Bout, Stephanie Quayle). He now has 3 records released under his belt and the new single ‘Way Past Words’ coming out on Friday 8.28.20! Jesse's music has been featured on the following locally.
