Leebee draws on the mythology and folklore from her lineage – infusing soulful vocal styling from her decade of jazz training with traditional clawhammer banjo technique – to create a musical space for storytelling and modern interpretations of myth. Drawing sound inspiration anywhere from bird calls to 80s pop synthesizers, Leebee finds ways to explore and infuse interesting new flavors into her musical style to better illustrate and capture the emotional experience of the myths she interprets. No matter how far she ventures out in her sounds, she always makes sure to keep a thread in all her songs to her much loved jazz and TN folk musical foundations, whether that’s through scat or some good drop-thumb.

Kaylee Rice is an alternative pop artist, who is a recent Chattanooga transplant from Nashville. Influenced by Taylor Swift, Stevie Nicks, and Lana Del Rey, her raw and detailed lyrics capture the deepest emotions of the human experience. Kaylee writes for anyone who wasn’t believed, who’s haunted in the middle of night by guilt that’s not their own, and for anyone who has ever struggled with dark days of their own.

At a young age of 10 music was a part of my heritage and everyday life, starting out learning guitar seriously at 16 when Grizzly Fowler gave me my first guitar.
