Drake Milligan
ALL AGESSTANDING ROOM ONLY DRAKE MILLIGAN Drake Milligan, born and raised in Fort Worth, Texas, is a multifaceted talent making waves in the Country Music scene and entertainment. With a voice that resonates with authenticity and depth, Milligan has captivated audiences with his soulful performances and magnetic presence. From an early age, Milligan displayed a natural inclination towards music, drawing inspiration from country legends like George Strait, Alan Jackson, Randy Travis, George Jones and Elvis. Armed with an appreciation for the history of country music, Drake Milligan moved to Nashville and immediately jumped into co-writes and recording sessions, where veteran songwriters taught him the art of storytelling, legendary producers taught him how to perfect his voice, seasoned musicians backed the new guy, and his country music heroes shared advice on how to bring his music to life on stage. When it came time to craft his sound though, the country traditionalist turned to his roots: Texas. His debut album Dallas / Fort Worth via Stoney Creek Records, produced by award-winning music producer and industry icon Tony Brown (Brooks & Dunn, George Strait, Vince Gill) and songwriter/producer Brandon Hood, is stacked with songs all co- written by Milligan. Featuring 14 tracks, his double-barreled baritone vocals match electrifying honky-tonk hooks, Western swing two-steppers and country pop balladry. Milligan uncorks exuberant themes of trouble-making fun, young romance, life-sustaining love and more on the project. Never taking his boot off the pedal, the pure-country hitmaker’s Jukebox Songs EP – released on February 16 marking another bold chapter in Milligan’s book. Produced by fellow Texan and traditionally minded star, Trent Willmon (Cody Johnson), the EP once again highlighted Milligan’s smooth, booming baritone vocal, towering over four fresh tracks full of instant-classic intensity and diverse country soul…including the foot-tapper “I Got A Problem” and the delicate, rootsy arrangement of “Don’t Leave Me Loving You,” a timeless, classic-country style ballad, aching and built on a still-tender emotional wound.

Fantastic Negrito
ALL AGESSTANDING ROOM ONLY FANTASTIC NEGRITO 3x GRAMMY® Award-winner Fantastic Negrito releases his highly anticipated new album, Son of a Broken Man, on October 18 2024 via his own Storefront Records. The new album sees Fantastic Negrito encapsulating his inimitable style, from hard-hitting guitar riffs to expressive ballads, with the unexpected twists that have become his trademark. It stands as one of his most personal works to date, exploring family, deception, and the human desire to hide the true self as he dives deep into the struggle between father and son. Born Xavier Amin Dphrepaulezz, Fantastic Negrito’s story is a testament to resilience and the transformative power of music. By now much has been made of Negrito’s unique story – growing up in an orthodox Muslim household, a doomed major label deal, the near-fatal car crash that permanently damaged his guitar playing hand—as well as the remarkable redemption arc that began in 2015, when he won the first-ever NPR Tiny Desk Contest. He has since earned three GRAMMY® Awards for “Best Contemporary Blues Album,” and shared stages with everyone from Sturgill Simpson to Chris Cornell to Bruce Springsteen. He’s collaborated in the studio with the likes of Sting, E-40, and Tank and The Bangas, performed on countless headline world tours and at festivals such as Lollapalooza, Glastonbury, Newport Folk, and WOMAD, and founded the Revolution Plantation, an urban farm aimed at youth education and empowerment.

Splithoff has toured globally as a headliner with appearances at renowned festivals such as Lollapalooza and Bonnaroo.

EVANN MCINTOSH Evann McIntosh mixes dark alt-pop and dreamy R&B with streaks of hip-hop, jazz, and funk, grappling with growth and evolution, gender identity and sexuality, freedom, and self-expression. Their writing is as insightful as it is unpredictable, alternating between earnest poeticism and playful acrobatics, and the production is similarly adventurous, wrapping their performances in lush, magnetic arrangements. Even at its most densely layered, the music remains a work of pure intimacy, unraveling the mysteries of their psyche one song at a time. Evann is currently at work on their debut album, due out in 2025.
