Our Story

Hey! We’re Bryan & Leah, a couple of country music sweethearts who have made our dream of moving to Nashville to write and record country music a reality. Originally from North Carolina, we made the move to Nashville, TN over 3 years ago to chase a neon dream.

In February of 2023, we moved out of our farmhouse, sold/gave away all our "stuff" and kept only what would fit inside a 1964 GM Tour Bus. Our original plan was to work our remote jobs while performing on Lower Broadway, pushing ourselves to learn and grow as artists. Thankfully, things don’t always go as planned. Two weeks after arriving in Nashville, Bryan lost his job because of the move and it was a "make it or die trying" moment.

After over 3 years of struggling to survive by playing music for tips, our love and determination has only grown stronger. We truly owe any success to our amazing friends/fans that we made along the way, and our hope is to one day make our Opry debut and prove to all of them that their support was never taken for granted.
