  • Red Skies Mourning- “Where You Been?”

    Red Skies Mourning- “Where You Been?”

    The backstory is not knowing that you’re hurting someone due to your own internal issues(low self esteem, self doubt, thinking that person is out of your league, you don’t deserve them and other struggles…). Only realizing what you’ve done after that person opens up about not feeling important or worthy and they eventually leave, hurt.…

  • Grant Nesmith-“Days”

    Grant Nesmith-“Days”

    “Days” is inspired by the landscape of Myrtle Beach and how it transforms throughout the day and the changing seasons. Nesmith makes us feel just how special this place is by his poetic lyrics. The music by itself has a dreamlike feel to it.

    David McKinney- Phaneron

    If anyone is hearing me for the first time I like for them to know that it means the world to me to be heard. Our time and attention is so valuable today so to be listened to just completes the music for me. I think of music as a vehicle for human connection, the…

  • The Wildwoods- “Thirteen Sailboats”

    The Wildwoods- “Thirteen Sailboats”

    “Noah composed a poem where he imagined himself as a sailor, pondering all of his life choices and wondering what he could’ve been had he taken other paths and opportunities. Being cursed by the “what if”, the sailor admires the fictitious character, ‘Virginia’, who represents all those who have found greater success, and lead seemingly…

  • Katanak- “Weigh Down”

    Katanak- “Weigh Down”

    I was working in job that was that draining me and I wasn’t able to focus on my passion for music. I was fortunate enough to land the role and play Jerry Scheff (TCB band) in the up coming Baz Lurhman ‘Elvis’ movie and it really just kick started my passion for music again. I…

  • Marcus Valance- “Yesterday”

    Marcus Valance- “Yesterday”

    The song itself came relatively easy to me because I knew what I wanted to say. I thought that talking about death, as part of life, was important not only from a personal point of view, but to help others open up about their own grief. -Marcus Valance

  • Jess Porter- “Overplayed”

    Jess Porter- “Overplayed”

    “I wanted the strength of the melody and lyrics to shine through, which are important to me on this song. It’s about meeting someone – a friend or a lover – you care deeply about, but you know it’s just not the right time to be able to develop the relationship. You feel sad, but…

    This song is about the tension between the life you want and the life you live. Imagine it’s 5 pm.

Or will things go one like they always have, with the same dead-end…

  • Markus Murphy- “Already Blue”

    Markus Murphy- “Already Blue”

    I want to deliver profound, top-shelf recordings that can last the test of time. The same way I listen to classic records from way back to decades past and go ‘damn.. how did they do that?’ or just marvel at the skills in the musicianship and production of a record. I’d like my records to…

  • Nay Shalom- “Closure”

    Nay Shalom- “Closure”

    This piece actually came together very calmly, very naturally and became my own little haven after making a very big decision last year. I was really struggling (not Covid related) and it took a big chunk of courage to walk away from something that was destroying me. It felt so very bitter sweet and I…
