Taylor Hollingsworth with Julia Barfield and Cannon Rogers

Taylor Hollingsworth

Birmingham, Alabama's Taylor Hollingsworth has always resisted easy categorization. Asked to define his music, he struggled – a little bit folk, a touch of blues, a dash of rock 'n' roll, but not quite fitting neatly into any single box. Eventually, he coined the phrase “Folk n’ Roll” to describe his sound. Now, he's proudly claiming that sound with his latest album, aptly titled "Folk n' Roll." Fans of JJ Cale, Mississippi John Hurt, Chuck Berry, Richard Thompson, Jonathan Richman, and John Prine will find much delight in Hollingsworth's blend of timeless influences.

Cannon Rogers
Exploring the absurdity of modernity via guitar solos, banjo rolls, and a healthy sense of Southern Gothic humor, Athens, GA based singer-songwriter Cannon Rogers carves out a space uniquely his own in the fertile musical grounds of the Peach State. After years on the road as a multi-instrumentalist with acts like Susto, Cracker, Waylon Wyatt and Futurebirds, Rogers' first release (Hydroponic Southern Gothic EP, March 2026) synthesizes his love of his home and the distinctly Southern characters he grew up around with a gnawing sense that three chords, the truth and a loud amplifier might not be enough to shift the cultural tides we fight to stay afloat in these days.

Julia Barfield
22-year-old Athens, GA-based singer-songwriter Julia Barfield was raised in the foothills of the North Georgia mountains– an upbringing filled with the folk and Americana music that inspire her sound and the experiences that inform her writing. After relocating to Athens to study at the University of Georgia, Julia found herself immersed in the vibrant Athens music scene. She began making her way around local open mics and playing on small bills until the subtle magic of the Athens music scene pushed her in the direction of her first recording project.
