Shaun Abbott
Performers come and go, but what sets a true entertainer, a good ole’ boy apart from the rest, is that extra dash of modesty that puts the focus on the fans before the ego.
“I love having the crowd be a part of my show,” says Abbott. “It’s about the fans. It’s just not about me one bit.”

They are unique and have a sound of their own. The Jawbones are comprised of 5 guys with 5 different backgrounds. Jimmy Morris, Austin Skinny, Luke Trentham, Andrew Kyle, and Stephen Davis are the guys that make up this loveable 5 piece. It’s simply a good time any way you cut it.
Ben Bradford
“Perseverance” has been the action verb throughout Ben Bradford’s life. Learning the value of hard work as he has watched his mom spend every single day on her feet for 38 years owning and running her own hair salon. “She and my Dad were partners ya know? There were no traditional roles in our home growing up. Each of them did what they had to do to take care of me and my brother. Dad would cook dinner most nights and he would have me call Mom to let her know supper was on the table when she was working late at the salon,” remembers Bradford.
Not only did his hard-working parents influence the future singer; Ben’s brother played a vital role in introducing him to the avenue that would become his passion starting by buying him his first guitar.
His passion grew even more after his Dad passed away during his first semester of college. “That was devastating,” recalls Ben whose father had long-suffered complications from type 2 diabetes and died in 2008. “I entered this Texaco Showdown on a whim. One day while studying for a test, a friend called and said he heard my name on the radio as one of the top ten finalist in the state. I went on to win second place and it was the reassurance I needed at that time,” explains Bradford.
After graduating with a degree in Biology, Ben made the trek to Nashville where he has been making music ever since. As a big hit on the sorority/fraternity circuit, he frequently plays Vanderbilt, Ole Miss, and Mississippi State and has been playing numerous shows across the southeast. He was named one of CMT’s Listen Up Artists of 2014, and had his music video for “Tequlia Makes the World Go Round” climb to the #3 spot on the CMT Pure 12-Pack Countdown. His EP “Alright” was released in December 2015, featuring 7 songs that showcase his country and rock influences and truly embody who he is as an artist.
