About Kelsey Waldon
In the six years since she signed to John Prine’s Oh Boy Records, Kelsey Waldon has earned wide praise for her “self-penned compositions [with] the patina of authenticity” (Rolling Stone). On her new album, Every Ghost, she confronts addiction, grief, generational trauma, and even herself — and comes through it stronger and at peace.
Waldon’s fearlessness is among the reasons she landed at Oh Boy Records in 2019, as the independent label’s first new signee in 15 years. It’s attracted fans to her headline tours and her festival sets, and prompted artists including Tyler Childers, Charley Crockett, Robert Earl Keen, Margo Price, and Lucinda Williams to invite her on tour. It helped earn her both the title of “Kentucky Colonel” — an honor recognizing goodwill ambassadors of Kentucky’s culture and traditions — and a spot in the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum’s annual American Currents exhibit in 2024.

About Leah Blevins
Leah Blevins, a captivating force in music hailing from Sandy Hook, Kentucky, seamlessly blends vintage charm with a contemporary groove.
Imbued with the grit of vintage country music and the grace of gospel, her debut album, First Time Feeling, serves as a genuine diary of her life stories and a testament to her musical evolution.
With influences ranging from gritty country to graceful gospel, Leah's creative spirit continues to evolve as she crafts the follow-up to her debut. Recently signing with Bob Doyle's Major Bob Music for both management and publishing, Leah is poised for the next chapter in her musical journey.
Her heartfelt songs explore themes of fear, self-discovery, and leaving the past behind, resonating with stories of life, love, and loss. As she embarks on the exciting continuation of her musical narrative, Leah Blevins, with her timeless sound paying homage to the past while boldly standing out in the present, is truly an artist to watch.
