HAFFWAY is the artist half of producer and songwriter Sam Westhoff, crafting what he calls “folkternative” — intimate songs blending cinematic folk and alternative soul. His debut album, Wither, captures the beauty and ache of emotional honesty across collaborations with Brent Cobb, Benjamin Francis Leftwich, and Bo Staloch.

Following acclaimed tours with Dermot Kennedy and Richy Mitch & The Coal Miners, Haffway has emerged as one of music’s most introspective and resonant new voices — for fans of Gregory Alan Isakov, Lord Huron, and Hozier. As both an artist and producer (with cuts for Shaboozey, Dermot Kennedy and Matt Maeson), Westhoff bridges sensitivity and sonic precision, crafting songs that feel like secrets you’ve been meaning to tell someone.

 

Born-and-raised Nashville native RYMAN has spent years crafting his unique sound and songwriting, which he lovingly refers to as “Y’allternative.” The 20-year-old singer songwriter has been drawn to music as early as preschool. 
“I’ve been coming up with melodies ever since I can remember, literally. At 3-years-old, I was humming or singing lyrics and not knowing where they came from,” he says. That passion continues to evolve, and RYMAN’s single “Lose”, out January 2025, sets the tone for his next wave of music.

RYMAN’s music, deeply rooted in Pop, Alternative, and Singer-Songwriter genres, is celebrated for its narrative depth and his ability to craft lyrics that are both aesthetically pleasing and emotionally resonant. 

Influenced by a spectrum of artists from Jackson Browne and The Beatles to contemporary figures like Ryan Beatty and Dominic Fike, RYMAN’s work is a reflection of his broad musical palette, striving to emulate the inspirational qualities of these legends in his own creations.

Looking ahead, RYMAN envisions a future where he makes a living through his dual passions: his artist project and writing for others.
