Dennis Drummond

Born and raised in a small steel town in Northeast Ohio, Dennis was drawn to the guitar at a very young age. Taking an early liking to the blues, Dennis was fronting his own blues group, playing 2-4 nights a week, by the age of 15. After college in late 2012, he loaded up everything he had into a van and headed south to Nashville, TN. Initially coming to Nashville to focus more on studio/session work and hired-gun gigs, Dennis has played guitar for, toured, and recorded with numerous groups over the years. Currently, you can catch him every Tuesday at Hotel Indigo for ‘Tuesday Bluesdays’, where he combines his love for blues and soul, performing his soulful originals and unique renditions of familiar tunes!

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

Chris Golden

Chris Golden is a Singer, Multi-Instrumentalist, Producer, Traveler, and Father. His history in the music industry is epic, spans multiple genres, and is rich in heritage. He has deep roots from his tenure on tour with Alabama, Restless Heart, and the Oak Ridge Boys, but his heart for serving the Lord has led him to where he is today. Chris’s ability to captivate an audience with an inspirational message has afforded him opportunities to perform for every living United States President and share from prestigious stages such as The Ryman Auditorium, The Grand Ole Opry House, Dollywood, The Huckabee Show, Larry’s Country Diner, and The Holy Land (Israel).

In addition to his own endeavors and touring schedule, Chris is an award winning music producer and is highly decorated throughout various organizations with his most recent honor being ICMA’s 2019 Entertainer of the Year, 2020 Instrumentalist of the Year, and Producer of The Year.

Despite all of Chris’s success, he understands who he serves.  In 2010, he was told by someone (who was undeniably heaven sent) to, “Play for the One who gave you the gift.” By doing so, he seeks to help others forget about the world for 75 minutes, worship, and take away a good dose of hope, love, and light. THE LIGHT.  When not out blessing others, Chris enjoys photography and spending time with his beloved Marie, and his three children, Elizabeth, Rebekah, and Elijah, whom he deems his greatest treasures.

Runaway Home

The band, Runaway Home, is a “homecoming” of sorts. It was founded by three powerhouse singers looking for a road back to the music they grew up on and loved! Their sound is strong three part harmony over lyrics that matter, wrapped in an acoustic style reminiscent of ‘70’s era radio. You might call them Retro-Commercial-Americana.

Robert Burgeis is one of Nashville’s few piano playing, guitar picking artists who is also a seasoned songwriter and producer. With his diverse talent and love for country music, he has been dubbed as ‘The Rednek RokStar’.
