Imagine an artist bringing a fresh new look, style and persona to the music scene. An artist able to cross all races, genres, fashions, and sound lines while breaking barriers with her music. Now, picture this artist being just 16 years old. Welcome to the stage, Alex Moore. At the unbelievable age of 16, Alex Moore has already developed a unique vocal style that is all her own; one made up of a soulful twist of her favorite musical genre’s, Pop, R&B, Hip-Hop along with a touch of Rap. You might say she is a quintuple threat; able to write, sing, dance, act, and rap.
 
Born in Williamsburg, Virginia but raised in South New Jersey, Alexandria moved to Los Angeles with her family, in support of her older sister 18 year old Ariel Moore, former member of Interscope Records the Clique Girlz, now solo. However, watching her sister become a success was not all that was destined for this 16 year old phenom. Alex herself has worked very hard to follow her own dreams. Besides singing and dancing since the age of 6 and acting at the age of 7, Alex also has co-written many of her songs that she has recorded with Rodney Jerkins, her producer and has become a member of ASCAP at the age of 9 which made her one of ASCAP’s youngest song-writers and publishers ever to sign with them. With her management company NCM Music Management, Alex is on her own path to super stardom.
 
Alex believes that through her gift of music she can inspire people to believe that all dreams can become a reality if they work hard enough and truly believe in them. Alex says, "Though I may be only 16, I have already experienced much and would like to share my experiences with the world through my music."

A trusted troubadour for hot summer nights and cold beers, Owen is now in his forties, tangling with separations from lost lovers, raising kids, and growing out of the fresh-faced kid that headed down to Nashville 20 years back with a six-string and a dream.  Case in point: Dreams to Dream, Owen’s long-awaited, Shooter Jennings-co-produced foray into classic, honky-tonk country, out November 7 via Good Company Entertainment. Dreams to Dream, Owen’s first independent studio album, featuring 10 original tracks and two stellar covers, tells the tale of a man at a crossroads — and what it takes to set out a new path. 

Owen wasn’t expecting much when he commented on one of Shooter Jennings’ Instagram posts, half-jokingly suggesting that they make a honky-tonk record, but the producer called his bluff. Two days later, Owen’s manager had Jennings on the line and, soon, Owen was on his way to L.A. and Jennings’ Sunset Sound. It was a cozy yet electric scene: Jennings and Owen cracking jokes in the sepia-toned studio, creativity crackling as they collaborated with the likes of songwriters Ben Chapman and Kendell Marvel, as well as long-time shooter pal, guitarist/harmonic player Leroy Powell. 

“All my friends who have heard my stuff have gone, ‘Dude, Jake, this is you man. This is who you've always tried to be,’” Owen says. “Sometimes you need to get outside what's comfortable, what people think you are, or think you should be, and take a risk.”

It’s gonna be a long summer. July 12. #TipOfMyTongue
