Allison Veltz
“Bright Side” - This is just a feel-good - Marie
Crichton BBC Radio Shropshire
About: Allison Veltz
Blaster Records artist Allison Veltz released
her debut single “Bright Side” to country radio. The upbeat,
feel-good-even-when-you’re-down tune “Bright Side” is penned by Allison with
creative partner Dan Muckala and produced by Mark Bright (Carrie Underwood,
Rascal Flatts, Reba McEntire, Sara Evans) and ASCAP Songwriter of the Year
Mucka. >> Listen HERE.
Born in Mobile, Alabama to a
unique travelling musical family, Allison started singing at the age of four
and quickly learned to play guitar and mandolin, relying on music as her only
constant as her family moved across the country to follow their passion. A
child of the radio, Allison’s musical influences include Allison Krauss, Jason
Mraz, Tom Petty, Nickel Creek, and Dixie Chicks.
As a New Yorker in 2010, she
was working as a singing waitress when she received an email inviting her to
travel to Nashville to meet Bright, who had heard demos Allison had posted
online. In January 2011, Allison booked a one-way ticket to Nashville and never
looked back.
Allison’s debut album,
Allison’s Wonderland, is an intensely personal journey of eleven songs
co-authored by the artist. It is
scheduled for release later this year through Blaster Records.
Press Blurb: Blaster Records
released her debut single “Bright Side”
to country radio In March 2014. The upbeat, feel-good-even-when-you’re-down
tune “Bright Side” is penned by Allison with creative partner Dan Muckala and
produced by Mark Bright (Carrie Underwood, Rascal Flatts, Reba McEntire, Sara
Evans) and ASCAP Songwriter of the Year Muckala. Whistles and mandolin, along
with Allison’s breezy and flawless vocals, inspire listeners to take a deep
breath and inhale some perspective when dealing with life’s ups and downs.
"I have lived this song so many times in my life,” Allison says of
the song. “If you've hit the bottom you can stay there or you can choose to move.
Sometimes it's a beautiful act of defiance to look at the bright side.”.
Bright Side’ from the upcoming
album, ALLISON’S WONDERLAND will be available on iTunes on April 29 ....Read

Ags Connolly
“I Saw James Hand” - I think he is brilliant...what I loved about
it they are all original songs, they’re brilliant, short and perfect for radio” – Marie Crichton BBC Radio Shropshire
About: Ags Connolly
Genre: Ameripolitan Hometown: Finstock, Oxfordshire Record label: Drumfire Records
He is a traditional country
singer-songwriter hailing
from West Oxfordshire in the UK. Country is the simplest description, but Ags
is a proud supporter of Dale Watson’s ‘Ameripolitan’ movement, which supports
new music with a roots influence, away from the modern incarnation of country
that exists today (you know the stuff…).
Ags’s influences come
essentially from hardcore country like David Allan Coe, Johnny Cash, Johnny
Paycheck, Robert Earl Keen and Chris Knight. However, he also takes major
non-country influences from the likes of Loudon Wainwright III and Ron
Sexsmith.
Ags’ debut album HOW ABOUT NOW, produced by Dean Owens,
was released on Drumfire Records in February 2014, receiving rave reviews.
“One of the best records you are likely to
hear this year…so strong is Connolly’s writing, dare I suggest that Ags
Connolly is the closest we’ve ever come to an English Willie Nelson? Yes, he’s
really that good, and his voice is unique.” - Duncan Warwick, Country Music People (5/5, Album of the Month) Read

“‘How About Now’ is a
masterpiece of British country” - Maverick
