With a decades-long commitment to his craft as a songwriter, Jason Eadyhas built acareer on bringing his unique perspective to a variety of genres. Uninhibited by ties to oneparticular sound, Eady’s catalog showcases an affinity for telling authentic, forthright stories withhis music, a quality that continues to bring newlisteners to this veteran musician’s audienceyear after year.Born in his most recent album’s namesake state,Mississippifinds Eady inspired,motivated but not bound by the success of his past; instead,Mississippiis yet anothermanifestation of what Eady does best–channeling truth into songs and a refusal to be boxed inby his previous work. His newest album, however, is not a seismic shift that rebukes the past;rather,Mississippibrings to the forefront hints of deep South-style blues that has always had aplace in his sound.“There was a groove based sound that I grew up with in Mississippi that has alwaysbeen a part of what I do, but with this record I wanted to bring that to the forefront. I think thisrecord is the opposite side of the same coin I’ve always had, I just flipped it over.”Mississippi’s critical praise situates it as yet another beloved album born out of Eady’snineteen year career. With nine full-length albums, Eady explores genre and form with mastery,complementing the Texas sound he’s perhaps best known for with forays where listeners canfind him accompanied by bluegrass pickers or pedal steel. This versatility has earned Eadypraise from contemporaries and critics alike, with NPR acknowledging Eady’s grassroots, no-nonsense approach to his craft by dubbing him “one ofthe most promising alt-countryunderdogs.”This intentionality and fluidity is indicative of an artist at the top of his craft, bolstered bycritical success like 2021’sTo the Passage of Timeand 2018’sI Travel Onbut not reliant uponit; if Eady stands for anything, it’s the wholehearted pursuit of remaining loyal to himself withoutresting on his laurels, pushing himself as an artist and a storyteller.“I have always had a ton of respect for artists who have experimented with and presenteddifferent styles and genres while still maintaining a style of their own. I love that arc over acareer and how it keeps it interesting for the listener. I love that feeling of “what is he going to donext?”. Hopefully that same sense of excitement and anticipation stays alive in my music aswell.”

Abe Partridge is a heralded musician, singer/songwriter, visual artist, and podcaster based in  Mobile, Alabama. His 2018 debut, Cotton Fields and Blood For Days earned him rave reviews,  with Tony Paris saying in The Bitter Southerner: "He plays guitar the same way he writes lyrics,  bashing the strings with abandon until they are just about to come loose, then beautifully picking  the notes until every last word falls into place. More to the point, Partridge writes to make you sit  up and think. He wants to jar your reality. Sometimes, his lyrics are sly and subtle. Sometimes  they come at you with a roar and thunder, as if the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse were  approaching, and the heavens were opening up to herald a warning."   Since the release of his debut, Partridge has toured relentlessly, including several tours of the  Netherlands and the U.K. developing a reputation for moving, passionate, and sometimes  comedic, performances at prestigious songwriter festivals such as 30A Songwriters Festival,  Frank Brown Songwriters Festival, and Americanafest. He is a regular at the Bluebird Café in  Nashville and Eddie’s Attic in Decatur. He has performed on the syndicated radio programs,  Mountain Stage and Woodsongs Old Time Radio Hour. He has shared the stage with Morgan  Wade, Paul Thorn, Steve Poltz, Dan Bern, Jerry Joseph, Glen Phillips (Toad The Wet Sprocket),  Tommy Stinson, Shawn Mullins, John Fullbright, and more.   Most recently, Partridge and co-producer Ferrill Gibbs released the Alabama Astronaut podcast,  where they explore songs previously undocumented at churches in Appalachia. The podcast  finds Partridge chatting with Holiness preachers and looking into the practice of snake handling.  It was in the Top Ten documentary podcasts on Apple Podcasts within days of its release and  now has over 40k downloads and a 4.9-star rating.   When Partridge is not writing or touring, he is also a highly acclaimed visual artist. His paintings,  primarily acrylic on tarred board and watercolors, now hang in art galleries around the southeast  and in the private collections of Tyler Childers, Mike Wolfe (American Pickers), Rick Hirsch (Wet  Willie), and Tommy Prine. His artwork was featured in Stephen King’s 2019 sequel to The   Shining - Dr. Sleep. He painted the cover art for Charlie Parr’s, Last Of The Better Days Ahead  (Smithsonian Folkways). He also created art for Tyler Childers’ 2022 release, Can I Take My  Hounds To Heaven?   American Songwriter Magazine said, “Abe Partridge has established himself as one of the most  respected songwriters and visual folk artists in the southeast.”   In November of 2022, Partridge released the EP Alabama Skies on Baldwin Co. Public Records  label which includes "Abe Partridge’s 403d Freakout". Partridge told Songfacts the story behind  the song: " 'Abe Partridge's 403d Freakout' was a song I wrote in about 20 minutes. It took me  two weeks to make it rhyme, and then it took me about six months to learn it. I just sat and  wrote a couple of pages of thoughts as they came to me. It was my attempt at describing my  thoughts chronologically as they sometimes occur in my head before I filter them. It is those  thoughts that I often have if I allow myself to mentally wander."  Partridge's exhibit With Signs Following was on exhibition at the Alabama Contemporary Art  Center in Mobile, AL from January 13 - May 20 of 2023 and is expected to travel to other city  contemporary art centers in the next few years. His full-length studio album, Love In The Dark,  on BCPR label, was released on May 12, 2023.
