Bobby Long

Since taking up the guitar at age 17, Bobby Long steeped himself in music history, writing his thesis at London Metropolitan University on the social impact of American folk music. He fell in with a group of local musicians that included actor Robert Pattinson, who sang Bobby’s song “Let Me Sign” in the runaway hit movie Twilight. That lead to a record deal with Dave Matthews’ ATO Records, where he released A Winter Tale, his debut record of folk-inspired songs.

Josh Weathers

Josh Weathers has been making his soul-infused brand of pop music for a few years now, racking up acclaim as one of Fort Worth’s best live acts. With his combination of blues, R&B, funk and rock, he has won “Best Blues/Soul/Funk” artist from the Fort Worth Weekly two years in a row. With a band that the Fort Worth Star-Telegram’s Preston Jones calls “fearsomely talented”, Weathers’ star continues to rise.
