John Krane

John Krane writes story-driven songs about love, payphones, pitbulls, and secret government weapons. He was one of the three songwriters in The Chimps, a St. Louis vocal group described by The Riverfront Times as "thoroughly cohesive effort that shows off some of the best of what the city's singer-songwriter scene has to offer."

The RFT described John Krane's original songs as "showing an offbeat but charming wit" and "an uncanny knack for turning a scene into a story."

Nick Gusman

Nick Gusman is a rising name in alt country who recently completed a European tour with his band, Nick Gusman and the Coyotes, in support of their third album Lifting Heavy Things. Hailed by No Depression as "firmly in the lineage of greats like Lucero, Springsteen, and Jason Isbell &amp; The 400 Unit," the album "demonstrates a preternatural knack for packaging knotty emotions and uncomfortable truths into unpretentious couplets that cut to the heart of the matter."

Gusman's songwriting has been described by Americana UK as a combination of "ever-so-slightly sardonic observations on everyday life, laidback vocal delivery and sharp-as-hell musical delivery."

Lefty Daytona

A self-described “collector of songs,” Lefty Daytona is a well-known fixture of the St. Louis music scene. His YouTube channel, Songs from the Desk features over 100 performances of tunes from his eclectic repertoire, with some videos racking up tens of thousands of views.

While Lefty has gained an online audience with interpretations of songs from influences like Bruce Springsteen, Hayes Carll, and Robert Earl Keen, his own songs are the most valuable pieces of his collection. He builds grounded and often-stunning portraits of world-worn characters, tinged with dry humor and alt-country grit. Daytona’s performances are understated yet emotionally charged, prioritizing storytelling over spectacle.
