Logan Ledger

A Nashville-based singer/songwriter with a smooth voice and classic tone, Logan Ledger built a buzz around Music City in the late-2010s, calling to mind names like George Jones and Webb Pierce. His career got a significant boost when producer T-Bone Burnett signed him and brokered a record deal with Rounder Records, resulting in an eponymous full-length record appearing in 2020 as well as 2023's Golden State.

A native of California, Ledger developed a fondness for bluegrass, old-time, and honky tonk music from a young age. After a brief post-college stint as part of a Bay Area bluegrass band, he migrated east to Nashville and put in the requisite hours working on his songs and playing at venues around the city.

Industry insiders quickly took notice, and before long he was working with the legendary T-Bone Burnett, who signed him to his Electro Magnetic imprint and helped foster a deal for Ledger with Rounder Records. The first official release from these sessions arrived in early 2019 with the singles "Starlight" and "Imagining Raindrops."

For 2023's Golden State, Ledger worked with producer Shooter Jennings, along with such musicians as Nick Bockrath and Jamie Douglass; it also featured a cameo by Erin Rae on "Some Misty Morning." ~ Timothy Monger

Mason Via

When you think about the current popularity rising around bluegrass and its culture, for years the conversation has at length been dominated by the steel-driving break out stories of Chris Stapleton, then Billy Strings. But who is the next pioneer to represent an untapped demographic well? Many Nashville legends would suggest; Grammy-nominated artist, Mason Via.

Since Via’s original album release with Mountain Fever Records, New Horizons, he has taken the bluegrass and americana scenes by storm. He was listed by NPR as one of the top 10 bluegrass artists thriving in modern Nashville. In the past three years, he has been touring as the youngest member of Old Crow Medicine Show, guitar-picking, singing, and songwriting on their newest Grammy-nominated album, Jubilee. His songwriting can also be seen on Molly Tuttle’s recent Grammy-winning album, City of Gold, with “Down Home Dispensary,” and on Del McCoury’s grammy nominated album, Almost Proud, with “Brown Paper Bag.”

Via has toured and performed in 47 of the 50 U.S. states, along with sections of Canada, Ireland, The United Kingdom, and The Netherlands. Some highlights include: Red Rocks, The Grand Ole Opry, The Ryman Auditorium, the O2 Arena in London for C2C Fest, and the Eagles Stadium opening for Luke Combs. During these travels he has shared stage time with the likes of Willie Nelson, Dierks Bentley, Sierra Ferrell, Steve Earle, Turnpike Troubadours, Keb' Mo', Margo Price, Amos Lee, Drew Holcomb, Cam, Brittany Spencer, Allison Russell, Shovels & Rope, Jerry Douglas, Gov’t Mule, Mike Gordon of PHISH, and many more.
