Orange County native Matt Costa is always happiest on the road. Coming off a strong year of touring around his critically acclaimed album of California story songs Santa Rosa Fangs, Costa is set to release new music throughout 2019, starting with a new single in May. Costa has a knack for writing timeless, sweetly tragic songs reflective of his big heart with an edge of folk rock.
JD & The Straight Shot – vocalist/guitarist Jim Dolan, guitarist/vocalist/ mandolinist Marc Copely, upright bassist/banjoist Byron House, violinist/vocalist Erin Slaver, drummer/percussionist Shawn Pelton and guitarist/vocalist Carolyn Dawn Johnson – is comprised of friends whose joy in telling stories together shines through each sparkling track of their new all-acoustic album The Great Divide. Inspired by artists such as Fleetwood Mac, Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, Civil Wars, Jefferson Airplane, Three Dog Night and The Yardbirds, The Great Divide boasts unforgettable hooks, soaring melodies and powerful stories. JD & The Straight Shot has toured with luminaries like the Eagles, Chicago, The Doobie Brothers, Keith Urban, Don Henley, Dixie Chicks, Jewel, Joe Walsh, Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, and Icon Vs. Icon declares JD & The Straight Shot “Is an absolute powerhouse that continues to dazzle crowds.”
Multi-platinum selling singer-songwriter Matt Hartke has been working under the radar writing for artists such as Adam Lambert, Avicii, Cash Cash, The Chainsmokers, Kygo, Max Martin, Matisyahu and Tiesto.
