Wiley Gaby is a queer country/folk singer-songwriter based in Brooklyn, NY. With a small-town upbringing in northern Florida, Gaby infuses classic country influences and rural roots with the collisions and stumbles of life in “the big city”. His sincere songwriting packs a punch and his emotional tenor voice brings balladeer vulnerability and melodrama to his music, as NPR Music notes, "swelling into high notes and emoting with sly finesse."

Gaby released his debut LP Bridges in 2015 (as Goldenchild with collaborator Jeff Doker), a gorgeous “case study in combining country with pop music and coming out with something that is heartfelt and mature. In other words, real country music.” (Rachel Cholst, Adobe & Teardrops) The Boot featured Gaby and Goldenchild as “10 Queer Country Artists Country Music Fans Should Know".

Wiley is working on an upcoming solo release and can be found performing at venues throughout New York City, and on upcoming tours with Teresa Jiménez, Paisley Fields, and Australian duo Great Aunt.

Acacia Forgot, who is based in Los Angeles, coasts through life’s highs and lows through the eyes of traditional country/folk music, bringing bursts of joy and laughter to an, otherwise, melancholy tune. Debuting their first EP, “I Only Cry Rhinestones”, Acacia is planing a 2024 full of new music and breathing new life into the world of country music.
