Sarah Jayne Riley
Have you ever pressed the reset button on your life? Sarah Jayne Riley did—and hasn’t looked back. Trading a conventional career for her true calling, music, she transformed herself into a fresh indie-pop artist whose message and voice resonates. With lyrics that embody resilience, self-empowerment, and rebellion, her debut EP 'Rules for the Collective Good' is ready to release April 2025. SJR is building a launch pad and is a rocket; prepare for liftoff.
Dylan Ireland
Dylan Ireland writes songs for the underdogs - the ones who’ve seen the dark and fought their way back. Raised in a trailer with a front-row seat to the life of a recording artist, music seemed an inevitable dream. With anthemic indie rock that punches through the static, Dylan’s sound is raw, cinematic, and honest. His latest release, little wasteland AKA drugstore, is a battle cry for resilience, painted in grit and melody. Four years sober after beating addiction, he doesn’t just write about the struggle—he writes about the fight to get back up again. Mental health, recovery, and the ghosts that linger in small-town streets bleed into every song, turning scars into something loud, something defiant. This isn’t just music—it’s survival set to a soundtrack.

Monique Messier
Brazilian-born singer-songwriter Monique Messier crafts soulful melodies and heartfelt stories, blending contemporary pop with acoustic influences and rich Brazilian roots.
