Kenny Foster’s unorthodox career has seen him sharing the stage with artists including Buddy Miller, Kacey Musgraves, Patty Griffin, Brothers Osborne, Maren Morris, and Old Dominion, and appearing in numerous episodes of ABC’s Nashville and even in Super Bowl commercials alongside Sheryl Crow and Danica Patrick. He was named one of the “Top 10 New Artists You Need to Know” by Rolling Stone and has been highlighted in the New York Times, Washington Post, USA Today, and Forbes. As he continues to grow as an artist and dive deeper into finding his voice as a songwriter, Foster has crafted a unique and very personal sense of his artistry – all culminating in the release of his critically acclaimed 2017 album, Deep Cuts. The record expanded Kenny’s reach further than even he could imagine, and he found a global audience, performing in 18 different countries in the years following. With his new album Somewhere in Middle America (2022), Foster addresses the beauty and the limitations, the experiences and the challenges facing those Midwesterners who, like him, carry a complicated relationship to their hometowns and the polarizing mindsets that increasingly define our times. Born and raised in Joplin, Missouri, the acclaimed and innovative artist didn’t set out to make this complex and deeply personal territory the focus of the record but gradually became aware of what was feeling most urgent to him. The results merge country storytelling, singer/songwriter intimacy, and rock & roll intensity—the place where pedal steel and banjos meet power chords. The first single 'Somewhere In Middle America' had its World Radio Premier on BBC Radio 2's "The Country Show with Whispering Bob Harris." His second single, 'Poor Kids,' a premier on Absolute Radio Country, and his third single, 'Copy, Paste, Repeat,' earned him a British Country Music Award for 'International Single of the Year.'
Grace West (https://youtu.be/Qzocs_iGz04) A modern country-pop artist with a timeless twang, Grace West was just 12 years old when she picked up her grandfather's guitar and strummed her first song. Music had always been a daily part of her life, from the gospel songs she sang in the church choir to the Motown classics that rang throughout her family's Detroit-area home. Even so, something changed the day Grace began making music of her own, sparking a meteoric career that would soon see her signing a publishing deal as a teenager, relocating to Nashville shortly after graduation, and creating a sound that blended northern roots with southern living. From Motor City to Music City, Grace's path has been thoroughly defined by music. Her grandfather — a guitar player who loved iconic rock acts like Led Zeppelin — was an early inspiration, as were the musical theater productions that Grace starred in as a child. Coming from a long line of Detroit natives, she also felt herself drawn to Motown music, whose songs told classic tales of life and love. And then there was Nashville, a town separated from Detroit by 530 long miles, yet still near and dear to Grace's heart from a very young age. She loved country music, and as soon as she learned her first handful of guitar chords, she was playing her own country songs at local venues. "I'm making pop-country with an old-school vibe," she says proudly, nodding to Luke Combs and other contemporary stars who've straddled the border between country music's classic traditions and modern makeover. "I love bringing the elements of classic country — the foundation of the genre — into a more modern sound." Grace secured second place on season 23 of NBC’s The Voice. As Blake Shelton’s last button push ever, he calls her “The real deal.” She went on to highlight her “pure” vocals and her love for the country music genre throughout the season.
