Raised in Anson, Texas. Caleb Young is a product of small town pride and tradition. This blue collar part of the world instilled a sense of humbleness, grit and authenticity that can undoubtedly be seen and heard through the lens of his music.
For as long as he can remember music has run through his veins. However, it wasn’t until 2015 that he began to feel confident enough to share his music with the world, and take his talents center stage. He attributes this start to a close friend whose songwriting, guitar playing, and production knowledge helped transform Young into the confident professional that he is today.
After taking a 12 year hiatus from playing bass guitar in regional bands Matt Sebastian made his solo debut in 2021. He spent his time away raising a family and focusing on career, but always dreamed of one day getting back on stages and performing. In just a short time, he has quickly become a regular act at some of the premier live music venues in the Houston and Southeast Texas area. Playing a fun mix of Rock/Country/Pop and his own original music, he has hit the ground running playing over 300 shows in less than two years and has had the opportunity to share the stage with acts such as Shane Smith and the Saints, The Teague Cory Morrow, and Muscadine Bloodline. His original music can be heard on his EP “For You” on all streaming platforms.
Seasoned seems to be the best way to describe Bernie Nelson. Both as a writer and a performer. With over 30 million certified sales of songs he has written for some of country music's biggest artists, he has learned the craft of writing songs that last over time. He credits his close relationship with songwriting icons like Guy Clark, Red Lane, Steve Earle and Wayne Carson to name a few with his ability to remove the filters from his songs.
" Songs are nothing more then everyday conversations put to music" is one of Nelson's favorite perspectives on songwriting.
As a veteran performer he is ever so comfortable while entertaining his audiences. You feel like you are a part of the evening and equally connected to his rich history by way of his stories that Nelson paints during one of his shows.
It is an intimate connection that you feel right away.
Bernie Nelson, songwriter, artists interpreter of life.

Winner of the HoustonLive Songfest '22 Texas singer-songwriter competition Heather Rayleen. Country Artist Heather Rayleen says most of her memories of childhood involve music in some way or another. As soon as she was talking she was singing and started performing at churches and rodeos as early as age 6. She also performed in the school choir and multiple talent shows. At age 11 she started learning to play violin in the school orchestra and continued through high school and played in the school Symphony. She quickly excelled and earned herself a scholarship to the school of music at Sam Houston State University. It was there that she broadened her influences of music and was invited to play 'fiddle' with the Scooter Brown Band. It was around that time that she was inspired to start writing her own music, so she borrowed her dads old guitar and started teaching herself to play. After playing with the SBB for about a year she began to perform solo and eventually formed her own band. Since then she has shared the stage and opened for several singer/songwriters then expanding into the opener for major national touring acts. Heather enjoys all genres in music and has a hard time pin pointing her exact influences, she just has a great love of music and especially enjoys performing. She hopes to share with the world her voice and the 'feeling that she gets in the pit of her stomach when she hears a great song.' Heather says her roots will always be country but she tries to bring together a little bit of blues, rock, folk and sometimes pop every time she performs.
