“Pride month is so special to my heart!” adds singer-songwriter-guitarist JA
JAIME WYATT is a country music singer, songwriter and guitarist based in Nashville, TN. In 2017, WYATT debuted her first album Felony Blues, the album tells the story of how she was incarcerated in the LA county jail for robbing her heroin dealer and eventually started her journey in recovery from addiction and trauma. WYATT’s second album, Neon Cross, was produced by Shooter Jennings and released to critical acclaim in May 2020. The album chronicles her experiences with getting sober again, dealing with grief and sharing the journey of her decision to come out as a gay woman, at age 34. Neon Cross is available now: http://newwst.com/
“Pride month is about how far we’ve come,” says singer-songwriter-guitarist EM
The second full-length from EMILY WOLFE, Outlier–released June 25 via Crows Feet Records–is an album built on exquisite tension: an endless push-and-pull between desire and resistance, determination and self-sabotage, the instinctive need to belong and the urge to strike out on your own. For help in channeling that complexity of feeling, the Austin-based singer/songwriter/guitarist explored and obliterated the boundaries of rock-and-roll and modern pop, mining equal inspiration from the likes of Judas Priest and Ariana Grande in her bold but masterful genre-bending. Produced by Michael Shuman of Queens of the Stone Age and Mini Mansions, the resulting body of work finds WOLFE upending the conventions of each genre, ultimately arriving at a guitar-drenched sound that’s wildly unpredictable and immediately magnetic. WOLFE’s new album Outlier is available now: https://orcd.co/

CHAVEZ and her wife run Niñas Arriba, a college fund for young women in gang-dominated El Salvador. Her first all-Spanish EP La Que Manda was released May 27, 2020. Learn more at www.ginachavez.com.
