Artist Bio:
Taylor Brashears is a singer, songwriter, and multi-intstrumentalist born and raised in Nashville, TN. She fell in love with bluegrass music at the age of nine and began playing shows at sixteen.
She was the lead singer of The Supple Station Trio, but in the past two years, she has teamed up with Tammy Rogers (of The Steeldrivers) to make her debut, solo EP. This was Tammy's first production project and the final product was above anything they expected including special guests such as the McCrary sisters, Jim Lauderdale, and Mike Witcher. Taylor is currently in the studio with Tammy to record a full length album for Summer 2013.
Her enchanting melodies and knack for sinister come from a bluegrass background but her unique approach on songwriting definitely brings something to the table that Nashville hasn't seen before.
Taylor Brashears- vocal, fiddle, ukulele, guitar
Carter Brallier- bass
Wes L'Anglois- guitar
Joe Giotta- drums

Artist Bio:
Jon Weisberger became serious about writing songs in 1998, having taken up the bass in his early teen-age years. Born in Yellow Springs, Ohio, and trained as a classical musician, the first songs that he wrote were recorded by Union Springs, a band that he helped to form in April 1992. A fellow member of the band at that time was Dwight McCall, who later recorded Weisberger’s song The Pathway Of My Savior (on Never Say Never Again, McCall’s 2007 album on the Rural Rhythm record label).
Subsequently, he has worked with the Comet All-Stars, Prospect Hill, Katie Laur Band and The La-Z Boys. More recently Weisberger has played bass in the Wildwood Valley Boys; Chris Jones and the Night Drivers; Larry Cordle and Lonesome Standard Time; The Lonesome Heirs; the Roland White Band; the Harley Allen Band; and Sally Jones & The Sidewinders.

Artist Bio:
Nashville, Tennessee is a nexus - a point where tradition and innovation intersect, where commerce collides with art. It may be the only town around where salaried songwriters and full-time session musicians are as common as accountants and schoolteachers. Music is the product, and the factories line the street, from the swank Music Row mini-high-rises to the low-slung Sylvain Park bungalows. And only Nashville could give birth to a band like the SteelDrivers: a group of seasoned veterans - each distinguished in his or her own right...
