Artist Bio:
Hailing from North Carolina, Clint has drawn inspiration from his home state's heroes. There is so much great music that has come out of North Carolina,â Alphin says. James Taylor is perhaps my biggest influence; his poetic lyrics and unique melodies are what have inspired me to first write songs.
With a passion for performing and an art for writing, Clint longed to move to Nashville, TN. After graduating from two different universities with bachelorâÂÂs degrees (UNC Chapel Hill; Appalachian State), it seemed that the time was right.
Clint combines songwriting influenced by folk, bluegrass, and traditional music with a clear and tender tenor voice. His songs reach and move you through their words, wit, and heart.
In additon to performing around middle Tennessee, Clint is an active member of the International Bluegrass Music Association and the International Folk Alliance, attending and showcasing at their conferences regularly, and is actively booking and available for house concerts and venues for 2012-2013.

Artist Bio:
Dear whom it may concern,
Izzy Cox ........is an anarchist crooner
she has coined the style Voodoobilly
Jazz as her own;
Influenced by old movie soundtracks,
Old time bar room blues and country singers.
Her lyrics are like diary entries..
Stories of serial killers, buckaroo cowboys,
snake handlers and sports of nature .
She had a unusual childhood, for the
formative years of her life she would
live part of her years in rural texas, and
then in french canadian montreal.
Throughout her moving around she was
part of a religious organization where

At the age of twelve she found
the traveling bug, she lived and worked
in horse racing tracks, traveled with circuses
and took part of many early punk rock mosh pits..
All by the age of sixteen..
At sixteen she released her
first two tape track recordings..
while she was locked up in
young juvenile delinquent
Institutions.
And has never turned back..
Till she was 27 years she was involved with a
leading and progressive musical movement
in montreal putting out 10 records and
playing 4-6 night a week... and her peers consisted of ..Godspeed! you black..,
Rufus and Martha Wainwright, Arcade of fire,
The Dears, The unicorns, the stars,
ashtray hearts ..basically the top 20
of independent music today..
After a 15 year career in the East Coast
She caught a Greyhound to Hollywood
California...
At a backyard vegan barbeque hootenanny in
silverlake, she met guitar player Billy Pitman, who, up to
that time had played with pretty much everybody he would
want to (Jimmie Vaughan, Hubert Sumlin, Janis
Martin, Gatemouth Brown, LouAnn Barton, Billy Gibbons,
Brian from KIX, Rev. Horton Heat, Eric Clapton,
and the list goes on)except for Izzy after
seeing her solo set.

and counts among her fans Todd the Surfer,

stripped down sound from live
appearances on college radio stations.
She has dedicated her life to touring
& playing music & writing songs about her
experiences...now she resides
