Coming 998 miles away from Miami, FL, Sammy Arriaga is a 19-year old Country Singer/Songwriter just trying to do what he loves most for the rest of his years. Born & raised here in the US but being from Cuban heritage, Sammy has been able to blend his R&B and Latin roots with today's Country Pop sound. He’s currently being managed by Octagon Entertainment and he's co-written plenty of songs with new friends he's made in his short time in town including Steve Dean, Bobby Hamrick, Tyler Hayes and more!

"Laura Leigh, WOW! … I love your voice and style." ~ Dolly Parton. Laura Leigh has a ton of musical experience for a gal of 23. She has been on stage for over a decade doing what she does. While performing and getting her schooling, she recorded three CD’s with her family band back home in Cana, Virginia. These records received excellent reviews and considerable air time in the U.S. and abroad. The latest record debuted at No. 9 nationally, in large part due to the singing and writing of Laura Leigh. Laura Leigh played most of the instruments, sang all of the parts and engineered a Dolly Parton tribute CD cleverly titled Parton Me in response to which she got a complimentary letter from Dolly herself! Pretty cool! This CD got some good review print in national media and magazines. Laura Leigh is now performing around Nashville and working at the Grand Ole Opry.

Drennan (Johnny Drennan & Olivia Drennan) is a brother & sister duo originally and currently from Hendersonville, TN. Johnny & Olivia auditioned together for Season 10 of American Idol and had a phenomenal experience! Johnny made it to the 1st round of the Hollywood stages but once his road ended, he came back to TN to work on his duo career with his sis and write songs with others around town. Currently both in school, they’re working hard on their songs and their talent is improving rapidly, yet they are just getting started- Look out Nashville!
