Matt Stell –
“I just try to be as real as possible,” says “Prayed for You” hit maker Matt Stell. “Just trying to tell some kind of truth is the hallmark of what I do.”
Coming from a true singer-songwriter like Stell, that’s not really an Earth-shattering statement. What makes it interesting, though, is the wealth of experience he has to pull from. A renaissance man in modern country, Stell is both an artist and an athlete, a soulful Southern vocalist and a worldly wayfarer. He’s a deep-thinking academic and a live-for-the-moment dreamer. And he’s a writer whose passion for the page is only equaled by his addiction to the stage.
A life of twists and turns has led Stell to follow more than a few callings – and he’s done so with excellence each time. But with his Everywhere But On EP, the tangled paths of his background converge at a new destination.
We all come from so many influences that I feel like you can never tell where music – or life – will go, and that’s what I gravitate toward,” Stell says, hinting at the subtle diversity found on Everywhere But On … and to his own wandering spirit. “I hope there’s a moment on this EP for everyone to be like ‘Oh yeah, I love this part. Play that again.’”

Gabby Barrett –
Warner Music Nashville powerhouse Gabby Barrett came into national prominence as a finalist on ABC’s American Idol in 2018 and has since burst on to the scene with new single, "I Hope.” Tapped as a “Highway Find” by SiriusXM’s “The Highway,” one of Rolling Stone Country’s “10 Best Country and Americana Songs To Hear Now,” and a CMT Artist Discovery member, Barrett and her “sizzling slow burner” (Sounds Like Nashville) are garnering serious attention from fans and media alike. Recently making her first return performance on Idol for the national TV debut of the track, and taking it to Disney’s “ARDYs: A Celebration of Music,” “I Hope” claimed the #1 spot on SiriusXM’s“The Highway” Hot 30 Countdown and on Radio Disney’s Country Top 50 chart, solidifying Barrett as “a voice you must hear” (The Pittsburgh Tribune-Review). A native of Munhall, Pennsylvania, and one of eight children, Barrett began singing in her local gospel choir at the age of nine, started playing shows at age 11 and performed 136 shows in 2017 alone, before rising to fame on Idol. She has recently shared the stage with superstars like Dierks Bentley, Luke Bryan, Chris Lane, Dustin Lynch, Jake Owen, Bebe Rexha, Sugarland, Carrie Underwood and more, and is currently in the studio with GRAMMY-nominated producer Ross Copperman working on her debut full-length album.
