Bailen is a songwriting-forward, indie pop, folk-rock band that has captivated audiences with their musical dynamism and the three-part “blood harmony” of siblings Julia (guitar), Daniel (bass), and David (drums).  The trio was raised by two freelance classical musicians in New York City who steeped them in Rock & Roll and Brahms. Their close familial bond is evident in their tight-knit musical arrangements and rich, emotive harmonies. The group has released two studio albums, Thrilled to Be Here (2019), produced by John Congelton, and Tired Hearts (2023), produced by Brad Cook. Both albums showcase their knack for crafting infectious melodies and introspective lyrics, earning them critical acclaim and a dedicated fan base. Their debut album was hailed by Rolling Stone as an “impressive debut”, in which they were compared to CSN, Fleetwood Mac, TLC, and Haim. Their catalog has over 50 million streams, and their song “I Was Wrong” reached the top 20 on Billboard’s Adult Alternative Chart. Additionally, NPR voted their song “Something Tells Me” #5 on the Best Songs of 2019. The band has made several TV appearances as featured artists, performing on the CBS Morning Show and The Today Show. They’ve also had the privilege of working with so many artists they admire, releasing collaborations with Amos Lee and Trousdale in 2024. In addition to their studio work, BAILEN is renowned for their engaging live performances, which feature a blend of heartfelt ballads and high-energy anthems. With a history of touring with the likes of Hozier, Amos Lee, The Lone Bellow, and many more, their stage presence and chemistry have made them a standout act at various music festivals and venues across the country. Currently, BAILEN is preparing to release their third full-length album, which they engineered and produced themselves with collaborators Jake Sinclair (Panic! At The Disco), Riccardo Damian (Sampha), and Chris Tabron (The Strokes). They are excited to release this record fully independent.

Megan Palmer's music is born from finding her way. Starting in Ohio where she performed with local heroes The Spikedrivers, she explored New York City before venturing to Nashville, TN where she's made a stunningly honest and adeptly produced album entitled What She's Got To Give. Produced by Patrick Damphier at Nashville's Club Roar Studio, and recorded in 6 days of mostly live tracking, this album features the stellar contributionsof Jon Radford, Tony Scherr, Larry Cook,Tim Easton and Amy Speace. What She's Got To Give serves as both a defining moment in Megan's artistic journey and a chance to further define herself among her peers.  "It was about facing truth, fear, rejection, anger, love and loss...It's sort of me reclaiming myself as the person or writer I want to represent myself as. I have to have a transformative moment in my writing…take the anger and figure out a non destructive way to get out of it," The rough and tumble, ramshackle roll of the album's opener, The Only Trumpet is beautifully juxtaposed with Palmer's assuredly yet casually delivered singing. The album's title track What She's Got To Give begins with such beauty and simplicity you wonder if you've heard it somewhere before? Lyrically, it's the kind of song that only comes along if you're willing to scare yourself to death. The album progresses and rolls in some Stonesy honky tonk barroom brawls, Beatlesesque rock'n'roll pop, sweet and sparkling edgeiness, lush harmonies and ethereal clouds of slide guitar that crescendo into another plane by way of faded delay and distant reverb. This record leaves the impression that Megan is one of those rare people who truly care. (She spends her spare nights and days as a Palliative Care Nurse at Vanderbilt University Hospital). She expertly communicates in her songs her sense of kindness and compassion even when there's good reason to behave otherwise. It’s not just something she says, it's also who she is as an artist and person. What She's Got To Give is another new and beautiful beginning for Palmer. What's to follow for her promises to be just as brilliant as what she's done and it leaves us wanting more from a new brilliant and powerful voice.
