The round will feature performances from Brooke Moriber, Tana Matz, The Hobbs Sisters, Savraya, Gwen Levey, Skylar Love, Ava Paige, Bailee Barnett, and Paige Nichols. Get to know the artists below!
Brooke Moriber
Brooke Moriber is a singer/songwriter and native New Yorker who has paved an unconventional path for herself in Country music. After getting her start at a young age professionally performing on Broadway, Brooke turned to songwriting as a teenager to cope with a rare eye disease that resulted in debilitating treatments and lack of eyesight. When the disease went into remission after a difficult four years, Brooke decided she needed to tell her own stories and began traveling to Nashville to work with some of Country music's best. Brooke later signed with Nashville’s Reviver Records and released tracks “This Town Made Us” and “Down To Nothing” in 2021 and 2022, respectively. When she is not on the road, Moriber has been hard at work in Nashville with some of the industry’s top writers and producers, including Todd Lombardo and Craig Alvin (Kacey Musgraves), as she continues to record for her upcoming full-length project with an expected 2023 release. Hailed as a “stellar songwriter and a powerhouse vocalist” (Country Swag) and “a force to be reckoned with in Country music” (Celeb Secrets Country), Brooke is poised to take her place among the biggest voices in Country music.
Tana Matz
When she was 15, Tana Matz had already learned how to play both guitar and piano and by 17, she got the courage to sing in front of her family. Now Nashville-based, Matz released her debut EP Just Fly in 2013 and it was supported by various radio stations. Her sophomore project In Time peaked at #11 on the iTunes Country Chart. She's had the opportunity to open for artists like Kellie Pickler, Kip Moore, Cole Swindell, Brett Eldredge, John Rich, Dustin Lynch, Cannan Smith, Russell Dickerson, and Joe Nichols.
The Hobbs Sisters
Rising country artists, Hobbs Sisters, are a twin sister duo known for their powerful harmonies, described by American Songwriter as “so strong it can blow your hair back, yet, so precise that the voices still sound like one.” This distinct sound can be heard throughout their music, which was influenced by a love of 90s country and artists such as Shania Twain and Martina McBride. Raised in Pittsburgh but now based in Nashville, they balance a full touring schedule that includes opening for artists such as Lady A and Russell Dickerson while consistently writing with talented up-and-coming songwriters in Nashville to develop their 90s country meets modern country style.
Savraya
Living in places like Nashville, TN, Ft. Worth, TX, and on the Mississippi Gulf Coast right near New Orleans, LA gave singer-songwriter Savraya a unique dose of Southern American music with roots, blues, jazz, country, hip hop, pop, and even Cajun music. At 16 she got her first guitar and had written her first song within a month. She started playing open mics very quickly. Her dad’s job transferred back to Nashville so she started playing writer’s rounds around town, and also started recording with Michael Mccadam and some great Nashville musicians. She has now found herself not claiming any genre, and opening her mind to all the modern, and past influences that have inspired her.
Gwen Levey
Gwen Levey founded the CMT featured band Gwen Levey and The Breakdown in 2018. They are a 70’s throwback outfit with roots in Country, Americana, and Rock & Roll. Their debut album, ‘Gypsy Soul,' showcases their fondness for the freedom and psychedelia of a bygone era. They have been featured on official Spotify playlists "Next From Nashville," "New In Nashville," "The Road to Americana," and "Fresh Finds: Country” and they have been featured by American Songwriter Magazine.
Gwen Levey and The Breakdown have continuously been showcased on WMOT Roots Radio, the official sponsor of AMERICANAFEST, on their "Local Brew Hour,” as well as on Nashville’s Independent station, Lightning 100.
Skylar Love
Skylar Love is an emerging artist that hails from Nashville TN. You really can't put a title to her style it’s a mix of singer/songwriter meets alt/pop/rock with a whimsical dark twist. She is a unique talent with music that is energetic, compelling, and passionate with the ability to speak to the heart with her expressive and moving lyrics.
Ava Paige
17-year-old Ava Paige is a Nashville Native and has been pursuing music since she was 10 years old. She just finished her 2.5-year battle with Leukemia and is active in several charities for pediatric cancer research.
Bailee Barnett
Bailee Barnett is a singer/songwriter from Northern California. She moved to Nashville in 2020 and has been pursuing her music career here since. She had two singles that came out in 2022, "Hilltop Town" and "Old Days" and she plans to release two new songs within the next couple of months.
Paige Nichols
Paige Nichols has been described as a “…songwriter with a sound that is both soulful, country and spirited. Songwriter’s Monthly has called her music, “uplifting, rousing and empowering.”
Since moving to Nashville, Paige has been making waves in the songwriting and music industries. She has continued to hone her craft as a songwriter, penning compositions with Grammy award-winning songwriters such as Paul Overstreet. Her recent single, “Still There” out Nov. 8th, 2019, can be found featured as one of Apple Music's “Hot Tracks.”
