Darrell Scott

Darrell Scott is an acclaimed multi-instrumentalist / singer-songwriter and Nashville Songwriter hall of Fame nominee. His songs have been performed by Travis Tritt, Faith Hill, The Chicks (formerly Dixie Chicks), and many others. A former ASCAP and NSAI Songwriter of the Year, Scott has garnered many accolades, Nathaniel Riverhorse Nakadate writes, “Darrell Scott mines and cultivates the everyday moment, taking the rote, menial, mundane, and allowing it to be surreal, ever poignant, and candidly honest.”

Hayley Reardon

Hayley Reardon is a critically acclaimed folk pop artist and storyteller raised in Massachusetts. Hayley won the Gloucester 400+ singer-songwriter competition in 2023. After three years in Nashville, Reardon spent the past six years carrying her songs and guitar all over the globe – including a six-month artist residency stay in Dachau, Germany – gathering experiences, inspiration and soulful connections that are reflected in her ever-deepening music.
