Robinson Treacher

At the crossroads of Blues, Folk, Americana, and Country, you’ll find the genre fluid music of Robinson Treacher. He has shared the stage with such notable artists as Vince Gill, Tedeschi Trucks Band, Los Lobos, Jeffrey Steele, Gillian Welch, Scotty McCreery, Gary LeVox (Rascal Flatts), Jorma Kaukonen, and Willie Nile, among others.

Hot on the heels of his 2023 EP “Hermitage Cafe”, he released “Limitless”, a tribute to the women of the world, most notably Robinson’s mother, wife, and daughter. “Hermitage Cafe,” is a dynamic blend of all things country, with a mix of swampy Cajun hell-raisers, steel guitar ballads, and straight-up hard rockers. The release has forged new ground while retaining that one-of-a-kind Robinson Treacher vibe…a vibe that fans have come to know and love, and one for which new listeners will most assuredly return.

Effron White

Effron White is an Arkansas born and raised, award-winning singer/songwriter now residing in Nashville, TN. When you hear Effron, you are immediately struck by the uniqueness of his songs and their delivery. His gravelly vocal brings to mind the likes of Tom Waits, John Prine, or Bob Dylan; yet, there’s a personal earthiness that drives the emotional truth of his songs right into your heart. As a songwriter, Effron draws his influences from those legends of the past who are looked upon as poets as much as songwriters; Bob Dylan, Townes Van Zandt, John Prine, and Guy Clark.

His skills as a singer/songwriter have resulted in nationwide recognition. Early in his career, Effron won the coveted “New Folk” Award at the prestigious Kerrville Folk Festival. He has also been honored as a Northwest Arkansas Music Award’s Hall of Fame Artist, as a result of having been voted Best Singer-Songwriter in three previous years. He was featured in American Songwriter Magazine’s Lyric Spotlight for his song, “Long Haul”, a story song about a down and out trucker. The same song won the Billboard Song Contest. He was selected as Nashville Ear’s “Best of the Best (Nashville Songwriter), 2019″. With four albums in the pocket, he is currently working on his latest recording with renowned Americana/Country singer/songwriter and Grammy Winner, Shawn Camp, producing. www.EffronMusic.com
