John Mark McMillan is something of an anomaly: an artist and Platinum-selling songwriter bending genres and defying categorization by carving out his own unique and independent path. With an ear for melody and a poet’s eye for metaphor, no topic has been off-limits. While each of his albums over the past decade have continued to explore new territory, it’s McMillan’s ability to give lyric and language to the human experience that many consider his greatest gift.

Born and raised in Los Angeles into a musical family, Will Champlin holds his own from playing Piano on Michael Jacksons last record, reaching top 3 of season 5 of THE VOICE, to co-writing 'Wolves' from One Directions 'Made in The AM' record. Once a graduate of Berklee College of Music, Will toured as a musician with the likes of Santana, Billy Ray Cyrus, to Glen Frey of the 'Eagles' and more. His songwriting work on Heather Headley’s 2010 “Audience of One” earned him 2 grammy wins. Propelled by a loyal & amazing fanbase known as "The Champs" Will was able to reach the Billboard hot 100 with his rendition of "At Last. In July of 2014 Will released his Record known as 'Borrowing Trouble' which is available for download which features 'Heat Of Passion' used for HBO's 2014 fall preview, and 'Eye of the Pyramid' in which he returned to the Voice stage. Champlin is always sharpening his arrows of creativity to hit the bulls eye and make his mark in such a hugely competitive world of music.

Made up of three members in three different cities, Canopy Climbers writes and records via the internet, a modern band stitched together by technology. Cory Nelson, Alan Thomas, and Nathan Miller originally from Little Rock, Arkansas make up the group producing music stylistically between Mute Math’s energetic rock in roll and Sleeping At Last’s lush pop.

The band’s debut album, Distances, was an exercise in restraint, ambient tones compliment the electronic underpinnings which swell throughout the album. On their sophomore release, Miles, little is held back as sonically addicting melodies burst from every corner of the album. Lead singles “Stuck” and “Always” lead the charge, displaying the band’s firm footing in both an indie-rock world and one of mainstream pop radio. With Miles, Canopy Climbers skipped the sophomore slump and raised the bar they had already set high for themselves.

The trio again expanded the listener's mind with their third effort, Blindfolded, and challenged any preconceived notions fans might have been settling in on. The four songs rely heavily on pulsating rhythms and darker electronic tones. “Chance” is a Canopy Climber’s anthem set to match the EP’s other tracks in mood, but the biggest surprise comes with the hip/hop appearance on the bridge of “Secret.” Features on IMPOSE Magazine, Relevant Magazine, and NoiseTrade.com have introduced the trio to a wider audience as their presence on Hype Machine continues to grow thanks to glowing mentions on Indie Shuffle and PopDose.

The Canopy Climbers aren't done, however. Pop melodies tinged with nostalgic memories will define Canopy Climber's upcoming EP Fever which is set for release in early 2015. Instant, summer defining, classics echo throughout the upcoming release and bring existing fans on yet another new ride. The first single, ”Slip”, hints at what to expect musically with its trebly bass and floating '80s-esque synth. The second single, “Fever”, is drenched in pop synths and beats, and laced with love song lyrics. The band's ability to bring depth to any genre still remains intact.

After a successful 2018 debut, Jacob is ecstatic to release his sophomore EP titled “Arrows” on March 22, 2019. The album explores a more somber and introspective side of the journey that he loves to write about. This album is both frank and searching, a dive into the deeper sections of the heart, while maintaining Jacob’s signature qualities of hope and light that are ingrained in his songwriting.
