MORE ABOUT THE SONGWRITERS:
+ Amick Cutler is an American Artist, Composer and Songwriter. The depth of his work is drawn from a well of risk, trial and overcoming. Every note and lyric tells a personal story of his own wild surrender inviting you into the mystery of life’s hardship and reckoning. He has written and produced for television and film, ghost written for various artists and daily pours out his soul into personal artistry.
+ Born in the Philippines but raised in the United States, Andrew’s called the Emerald Coast home since 2018. A full-time worship leader and a passionate songwriter and creative at heart, Andrew crafts songs that carry honesty, faith, and encouragement through the lens of his own personal experiences and perspectives. Whether on stage or in conversation, his heart to share music that points people toward hope. Andrew has been a part of several indie-rock bands in Florida and Northern Virginia and creates his art from his home.
+ A founding member of the Nashville-based band, Certainly So, Tanner Lee Gray is an artist in his own right whose music is steeped in the spirit of the Gulf Coast and soul of the Deep South. Originally from Birmingham, Alabama, Tanner developed coastal roots as yearly childhood trips to visit his grandparents turned into a permanent residence on Highway 30A. His time in Mississippi and Louisiana added grit to the easygoing sound he developed on the Emerald Coast.
With heartfelt songwriting and breezy undertones, Tanner’s music feels like having your windows down as you traverse the sugar white sands, coastal dune lakes, and swamps that span from New Orleans to Apalachicola. He writes about the moments that stay with you and the places and people that feel like home- or somewhere you wish was home.
With every song, Tanner Lee Gray invites listeners to reflect, reminisce, and embrace the leisure in their life. His first single, “Time & Money”, is set to release in 2025.
+ Cody John Bennett was born in South Georgia and raised in the Florida Panhandle. He started writing songs at the age of fifteen. After years as a working musician playing covers in his local bar scene to make ends meet, he has been releasing his original work to share with the world. His songwriting style comes from a place of sincerity and vulnerability laced with self-awareness, humor, and grief. Following Bennett’s latest EP, Last Good Habit, he aims to record and release his debut record and become a full-time troubadour sharing his music on the road.
+ Katie Dineen is the founder and host of the Pensacola Songwriter's series, and she songwrites from the heart.
