A rare Nashville-native, Jessie Early grew up surrounded by music. Her debut-EP is a blend of singer-songwriter lyrics, pop sensibilities, and a little 80's nod (think: dreamy DX-7s, roto-toms, snares tuned up as high as they'll go, a mid-ballad-modulation, and a fleetwood mac-"gypsy"-inspired-guitar solo). 

Two-years into the recording process, she felt unsettled with how the songs were turning out. With the EP about 75% done, she reached out to producer Jeremy Larson about tracking some strings. She loved working with him so much she turned to him to help her re-work a few songs, do a little extra programming, mix, and master the project. Between her original home-made garageband beats, her husband Aaron's drum parts, and Larson's fresh perspective, the unique beats and arrangements took on a new life that at the core still feel organic, human, and fun. 

She currently spends her days writing mostly for sync placement (with songs featured in ads for Tiffany & Co, Delta Faucets, and ABC Family's "Switched at Birth"). She lives in Nashville with her husband, Aaron and their tail-less dog, Cash.

Known for his work fronting the enigmatic rock band Pedro the Lion, David Bazan’s emotionally charged narratives, eye for telling detail, and mournful voice have more in common with J.D. Salinger’s “Nine Stories” or Flannery O’Connor’s “Wise Blood” than with the usual lyrical slant of popular music. Bazan is a gifted storyteller, weaving parables of spiritual conflict, suburban ennui, and personal surrender into magnetic, well-crafted songs.

His debut solo full-length album, Curse Your Branches (out now on Barsuk), is a masterwork by a modern American poet at the height of his powers. Paste Magazine called him one of the “100 Best Living Songwriters”. This record is the deepest and most explicit exploration of his struggles with faith and a meditation on all things passed between the generations.
