Cincinnati, Ohio: Where the south meets the Midwest. It’s also the best way to describe the music of Kentucky-born Singer/Songwriter Nicholas Johnson; Southern roots meets Midwest rust belt rock. On his first new album in two years, “Back Upstate” puts all of that on display by crafting a mix of heartbreakingly genuine songs and genre-bending rockers in the spirit of songwriting heroes like Tom Petty and Jeff Tweedy.

Age Nowhere is country-rock group based Dayton, Ohio. Most of the band grew up in Vandalia listening to 90's rock and oldies. The group was founded in 2017 by singer/songwriter Paul Monnin and his lifelong friends, identical twin brothers Matt and Dan Spaugy. The group released its debut single "Dopamine" in 2018 followed by two full-length albums: 2019's "Airport Sounds" and "Age Nowhere Strikes Again!," which was released in October 2021.

Cincinnati, Ohio: Where the south meets the Midwest. It’s also the best way to
describe to the music of Kentucky-born Singer/Songwriter Nicholas Johnson;
Southern roots meets Midwest rust belt rock. His EP Shady Pines Vol. 1 puts that on
display to the world by crafting heartbreakingly genuine songs and turning them
into passionate and dynamic expressions.
Restless and nomadic, Johnson has made his home on the road. From his hometown
of Bowling Green, Kentucky to New York to his adopted home in Cincinnati. Then
two years ago he uprooted his life in Ohio and made the jump across the pond to
Milan, Italy where his songwriting and energetic live performances quickly caught
the attention of Virgin Radio Italy. In the past year he was named Virgin Radio’s
“Artist of the Month” and recently began a co-headlining tour of Italy with popular
Virgin Radio personality Andrea Rock.
His latest release, “Shady Pines Vol. 1” EP is the first release of the double EP project
that has Johnson teaming up with acclaimed Producer and Engineer Patrick Himes
(Ryan Adams, Rubyhorse, Lilly Hiatt) with the goal in mind to craft a recording that
matched the intensity of his live shows. The result is a beautiful, energetic mixture
of fuzz and twang from one of the next great voices in Americana music.
