His music takes you back to the days when songs were inspiring, meaningful and thought provoking. His tunes are melody-based short stories that anyone can relate to and identify with. It only takes one of his many songs to be instantly hooked. Five words sums it up - Ear Candy for the Soul. KATRINA CAIN Hailing from the vibrant city of Austin, Katrina Cain is a Texas-rooted artist with a voice shaped by the open road. Born in Dallas and raised across many statelines, she grew up without a hometown, and that search for belonging runs deep through her songwriting. Now finding herself at home in Austin, Katrina's sound captures the raw truth of Americana with the polished grit of modern country. Katrina first caught national attention on NBC’s The Voice with a standout rendition of “Rhiannon,” and her journey has only grown more compelling since. Her 2024 EP Gold introduced her as a fearless storyteller, inviting new audiences to share in the honesty- and often, humor- of life’s struggles. With the lead single’s music video, “New Mercedes,” amassing over two million views, Katrina proves she’s a rising star who’s here to stay. Her upcoming, full-length album, recorded in early 2025, features an impressive lineup of talent including Matt Hubbard (Willie Nelson), Philippe Bronchtein (Chase Rice), Doug Pettibone (Lucinda Williams), Andy Rogers (The Wilder Blue), with engineering by Chris Bell (The Eagles, Reba, Jim Lauderdale) With this new release, Katrina continues to venture into her own authentic sonic palette, embracing Texas-country textures and stories steeped in wanderlust. GREYSON TURNER A new era begins. A lifelong journey continues. Greyson Turner has a soul older than his twenty-seven years of age would tell you. As a singer/songwriter in Austin, TX, he has made waves in the Austin music scene since arriving in 2021. Combining a powerful, old-school, gravel-laden voice with emotion invoking songwriting rooted in Americana, Greyson has been wowing audiences with just his voice and his guitar since he was a kid. Discovering an intense passion for music at an early age, Greyson has been performing for most of his life. From talent shows to musicals to rock bands, all the way to big stages like American Idol, Greyson is used to the spotlight in a unique way. After a six year hiatus from releasing music as a solo artist (during which he obtained two degrees, established himself as a legit gigging musician in Austin, and fronted an alternative-rock band), Greyson has entered a new era in his career with the release of his debut album, "Reap What You've Sown" in Summer 2025. With this release and reemergence, the renaissance of Greyson Turner has begun.
