It's easy to see why Montana's music connects with so many people far and wide. Dubbed as one of Rolling Stone's "Artists You Need To Know," his musical influences range from Merle Haggard to Guns 'N Roses. Montana's passion for music has not gone unnoticed by his fellow musicians. "Tim is the real deal. He's a little bit country with lots of hard rocks -- or maybe he's a rocker in touch with some serious country roots," says  ZZ Top's Billy Gibbons. Billy and Tim have collaborated on multiple different tracks including, “This Beard Came Here to Party” which became the theme song of the Boston Red Sox as they fought to a World Series championship, and later Music City’s NHL franchise the Nashville Predators. Tim also wrote on Kid Rock's single, “Tennessee Mountain Top” and “Greatest Show On Earth” as well as Mac McAnally's hit, “Amarula Sun.” Another fun fact...Tim's song, "Asphalt Throwdown," is now the theme song for Nascar on Fox Sports.

Rising country group, Sweet Tea Trio, has signed an exclusive management deal with the rock-and-roll icon, Kid Rock (Robert Ritchie), and Vector Management founder, Ken Levitan. The joint venture marks a first for the industry veterans, who worked together early in Kid Rock’s career.  

Ritchie discovered the trio, made up of Alabama natives Victoria Camp, Savannah Coker and Kate Falcon, after they posted a video performing one of their original songs on YouTube. Ritchie invited them to perform on his eighth annual Chillin The Most Cruise last year, where his fans fell in love with the group. 

“These young ladies are some of the most talented, kind hearted and hard working singers and players I have ever met,” remarks Ritchie (Kid Rock). “They are already becoming fast scholars of the road and writing songs. In my opinion they pick up where the Dixie Chicks and Pistol Annies meet. They are 100% country and I look forward to sharing my 30 years in this business to get them an honest shot at the big time.“

“We met in guitar class” is not a thing many people can say...but Sarah Zimmermann and Justin Davis performed together for the first time on the very same day they met...in guitar class.

Striking Matches went on to release their debut album produced by T-Bone Burnett, and have since released 3 more EPs, many singles, and have had their songs featured on Grey's Anatomy, American Idol , ABC's Nashville , and Monday Night Football, to name a few.

Both lead guitarists, singers and songwriters, Sarah and Justin’s music spans a wide array of sounds and genres, combining pop choruses with blues guitar riffs. Their musical prowess creates an electrifying and unique experience with each live performance.

They recently finished release of a new 3 EP project titled “Morning, Noon, and Night” each with a different sound and sonic space. While morning, noon, and night are three parts of a day, Morning, Noon, and Night are meant to be three parts of what makes up Striking Matches.

“Morning” and "Noon" were released in 2019 with “Night” released in 2020.

Stone Senate has been called “a heavier version of Lynyrd Skynyrd, crossed with The Allman Brothers Band”. While being mentioned in such heady company is flattering, one thing Stone Senate is most definitely not, is a retro act. They are taking what came naturally from their collective influences a step further.

Fronted by lead vocalist/guitarist Clint Woolsey’s smoldering, soulful vocals and unmistakable stage presence, stage left and stage right are burning with dual lead guitars of James Edwards and Ted Hennington. Add to these the blood bonded rhythm section of “The Mud Brothers”- Paul Zettler on bass/vocals and David Zettler on drums/vocals and you have caught lightning in a bottle.

This band has built their audience through relentless touring year round, along with radio tours inserted into the schedule. Having been together since 2012, the band is able to widen their collective set list while throwing in band and audience favorites of Country and Rock legendary songs.

When it comes to straddling the line between rowdy country music and rebellious hard rock, no one does it better than The Cadillac Three. Name another band that can play a country festival with Florida Georgia Line or Keith Urban one day and then jet off to the U.K. to share the stage with Metallica or Slayer the next.

 On the Nashville trio’s long-awaited fourth album, they push their country, hard rock and southern rock bona fides to the limit while also introducing elements of funk and soul. The result is a dirty, greasy and hard-hitting sound that can only belong to The Cadillac Three — one they've christened COUNTRY FUZZ. 

But COUNTRY FUZZ isn’t just the name of the group’s new album. It’s also their aesthetic, the phrase that best sums up both the music and lifestyle of singer-guitarist Jaren Johnston, drummer Neil Mason and lap-steel alchemist Kelby Ray, three guys who have become closer than brothers while growing up and playing in bands together in America’s most buzzed-about music city.
