Riggs is from Independence, Kentucky, where the midwest meets south, and the roots of American rock, pop, country and soul have jointly influenced her style. Riggs’ music is reminiscent of Sheryl Crow, early Liz Phair, Juliana Hatfield and The Bangles. Aided and abetted by Cincinnati based co-writer, guitarist and producer, Brian Lovely, 24 year old Riggs continues to explore the origins of her influences in the singer-songwriters and classic power pop of the sixties and early seventies.
A singer/songwriter out of Cincinnati, Ohio.

"Originally got my start in a small town in Kentucky. I am just trying to share my story, my family's story, friend's story, and your story."
The Laurelys are a husband and wife folk duo from Newport, Kentucky, inspired by the haunting melodies of Old-Time Appalachian music and the beauty of the mountains where it was born. The Laurelys use interwoven harmonies and the clawhammer banjo to tell stories about love, life’s challenges, and finding solitude in nature.
Veronica Grim is not just a name, it’s five-alarm-rock-and-roll-fire. Featuring Veronica Grim (vocal, acoustic guitar), John Campbell (bass), Nathan Hickey (percussion), Daniel Espinoza (lead guitar) and Dick Gross (guitar) the energy of their live performances is Midwestern Legend. Fusing classic rock n roll, shoegaze, punk, psychobilly and Americana, Veronica Grim has a sound all their own. Having lived and performed in New Orleans and Los Angeles, this group of firebrands has settled in Cincinnati, OH as their base of operations. For fans of Blondie, Social Distortion and Heart, this group will make you dance, pump your fist and beg for more. Check out their latest EP “Summer Goth” now streaming on all platforms!
