In the budding music-mecca of Asheville, NC, a man with a trumpet, a guitar and a mission metamorphosed into the groove-centric but emotionally driven soul/rock band, Hustle Souls. With years of relentless touring under their belt, sold out shows and major festival appearances, the band’s infectious modern meets vintage sound has earned them a reputation as one of the East Coast’s most promising acts. After releasing a live video series in 2017, the band was approached by gold and platinum mixer and producer Eric “Mixerman” Sarafin (Ben Harper, Pharcyde etc.) about making a record. In February 2018 Hustle Souls released their debut full-length album “Color” to a sold out crowd and are currently touring from Atlanta to Boston in support of the 10 song LP.

Outshyne
Think the name describes these five guys with half a million road miles and almost ten years together. They have weathered all types of adversity and setbacks. Some how when they should’ve gave up they keep on putting out music. The longevity and determination says a lot about their character and desire to make music. They have had a #1 on Sirius/XM the Highway with “Moonlight Crush”. They have played some of the best venues and biggest festivals in the U.S. such as “Taste of Country” in New York and CMAfest in Nashville along with many others. They have shared the stage with Jake Owen, Keith Urban, Darius Rucker, Neal McCoy, Colt Ford, Corey Smith and Gary Allan just to name a few.
