PHIE

PHIE grew up in the mountains of Colorado, writing music from an early age. With vulnerable lyrics and cinematic production, her music is reminiscent of artists like Lana Del Rey, AURORA, and Florence & the Machine. Her newest single 'Monsters' just released alongside a music video, striking audiences with viscerally dark images, juxtaposed by Colorado’s wilderness. The single was recorded at Fame Studios in Muscle Shoals, and is part of an album that will release the following year. "I think I finally found my 'sound' in Muscle Shoals," says the singer-songwriter.

Grace DeVine

Grace Devine was born, or perhaps reborn, in the bathtub. The year was 2019, and while the 22-year-old singer-songwriter had been musically inclined her whole life, she wasn't sure what the next step toward a solo career would be” (Cleo Mirza, Westword Magazine). She dunked her head under the glittery bath-bomb infested water, and when she came up, she knew what was next.
