Hannah Bell's new single "Get Rid Of It"

“Get Rid of It” exemplifies Hannah's unwavering character as the listener accompanies her on a journey through the end of a relationship and taking the high road as someone moves on from a relationship.

Lilly Winwood's new album "Time Well Spent"

The Local Honeys' new single "Dying To Make A Living"

 Of the song, The Local Honeys said "The song is a prime example of the continued collaborative nature within this region. Traditional music is an evolving art form, living and breathing in generations as they come and go. This song is an honest and brutal commentary of the working men and women dying to make a living at the expense of their bodies to power the world outside of Appalachia.”
