HAFFWAY is the artist half of producer and writer Sam Westhoff, blending folk and indie alternative with a touch of cynicism. What began as an accidental outlet for Sam’s creative burnout quickly turned into a new artistic chapter. The first song, “I Don’t Need You Anymore,” started as therapy and paved the way for HAFFWAY’s debut EP, Prequel. The project’s success not only resonated with fans but also attracted like-minded artists to Sam’s production door.   By summer 2023, HAFFWAY was splitting time between his burgeoning artist career and producing/writing for others. 2024 marked a breakout year with the release of three standout singles—"Bells," "Burden," and "Whatever He’s On" —and his acclaimed sophomore EP, Lady Lou. A deluxe edition followed, featuring collaborations with Wilderado, Cece Coakley, Sam MacPherson, and Trousdale. His track “Right Here” landed a coveted sync on the Grey’s Anatomy season premiere, further solidifying his rising status.   HAFFWAY brought these releases to life on tour with artists like Brent Cobb, Elle Coves, and Noah Floersch, earning new fans at every stop. Recognized as a TIDAL Official Artist to Watch, HAFFWAY’s momentum continues into 2025 with a tour alongside Wilder Woods and upcoming collaborations with artists like Cece Coakley, Hunter Metts, and Clover County.   Sam Westhoff’s dual talent as HAFFWAY and a sought-after producer is undeniable. Jump on the bandwagon before it leaves the station—HAFFWAY is just getting started.   Haffway performed at the 2025 Sundance ASCAP Music Cafe.

Born and raised in Nashville, RYMAN has spent years shaping a sound he proudly calls “Y’allternative.” The 20-year-old singer-songwriter has been chasing melodies since preschool. “I’ve been coming up with melodies ever since I can remember. At three years old, I was humming or singing lyrics without knowing where they came from,” he says. That instinct hasn’t slowed. His upcoming single, “Lose,” out January 2025, kicks off the next wave of his music. Rooted in Pop, Alternative, and Singer-Songwriter traditions, RYMAN’s work stands out for its storytelling and his knack for lyrics that hit both aesthetically and emotionally. His influences stretch from Jackson Browne and The Beatles to contemporary voices like Ryan Beatty and Dominic Fike — a broad palette he pulls from to craft songs that aim to inspire the way his heroes inspired him. Looking forward, RYMAN sees a future where he’s making a living through both sides of his passion: his own artist project and writing for others.
