From performing 250 dates a year, solo acoustic and/or full band, Americana artist Patty Reese has earned troubadour status. Her powerhouse vocals, strong work ethic and sharply honed songwriting skills paved the way for this new release Lift Us Up, her most captivating work to date. “Recording this new album Lift Us Up, has been cathartic and nothing short of a complete joy for me.” When offered the opportunity to record on the Nashville-based Creative and Dreams label with a top notch producer and fantastic studio, Patty was excited to explore the broad scope of Americana including American Roots, Blues and Soul showcasing her diverse vocal style and life experience. A fan and critic favorite, Reese has been recognized by the Washington DC Area Music Association with 17 awards including Artist, Songwriter and Album of the Year.

Most important to me is delivering bone deep, authentic, truth.” https://pattyreese.com/ Robert Cline, Jr. travels from the Texas Plains to Colorado Rockies to the waters of The Shoals to find his calling – preaching the good news of this legendary place of American music. It’s quite magical and mystifying – no one can put the finger on how it’s so lush with sound. But it is. When you move to a new area, you wanna know where to get the best coffee, the freshest meats, and a good watering hole. Robert Cline, Jr has found his waters of inspiration – deep in the sounds of American Mojo. After traveling thousands of miles, Cline has found his new hometown. Produced at the Nutt House in Sheffield, AL, Robert started to hear his songs a certain way, and he needed some Mojo, something original and greasy -back beat grooves – thus entering: The Muscle Shoals Swampers. Along with them, a few co-written songs with Shelley King and Gary Nichols, tucked under Robert’s hat, the music began to rise like the waters after a good summer rain. Thus began the romance between a man and his quest for the song https://www.robertclinejr.com/
