Hannah Huntley: Meet country singer-songwriter Hannah Huntley, an electrifying new voice in the genre. Known for her raw storytelling and magnetic presence on stage and social media, Huntley brings a fresh, adventurous spirit to country music, blending influences from Tanya Tucker, Kacey Musgraves, and Gretchen Wilson into her own unique sound. A Nashville-based artist with a deep passion for storytelling, Huntley has already built a loyal fanbase through her work with the country duo Jericho Rose and performances alongside rock acts like Asking Alexandria. Now embarking on her solo journey, she’s ready to carve her own path, and Noble Steed Music is honored to be part of this next chapter.
Shanna in a Dress: Shanna in a Dress is your quirky best friend who refuses to wear pants. She says what everyone has felt but no one else will say and you'll get an uncensored journey of clever humor and heartbreak, extreme candor, and a hefty side of entertainment at her shows. This witty wordsmith is known for taking you on an emotional roller coaster, sometimes within the same song. Think John Prine mixed with Ingrid Michaelson with a twist of Phoebe Buffay from Friends all wrapped up in a sweet voice accented by guitar, piano, and ukulele.
Most recently, Shanna in a Dress was pronounced the winner of the Rocky Mountain Folks Fest Songwriting Contest. In 2020 alone, Shanna was a winner in the Kerrville New Folk competition, winner of the Great River Folk Fest Song Competition, a finalist at Songwriter Serenade, and a Grassy Hill Emerging Artist at the Falcon Ridge Folk Festival.
During the summer of 2021, Shanna bicycled from Seattle to Boston while music-touring on her epic "Tour de Dress," playing over 60 shows from coast to coast and partnering up with the global non-profit Pangaea World Foundation.

Take one look at his tousled locks, wire-rim glasses and lanky build, and 20-year-old, Nashville-based singer/songwriter/multi-instrumentalist Drew Pulliam appears to be a cross between an angelic choirboy and pop icon Buddy Holly. Listen to the music on his remarkable debut album, Back of My Mind, on producer Steve Azar’s Delta Mississippi-based Ride Records, and you will understand the prescient title of his first EP, “16 Going on 60,” released in 2023.
Filled with bittersweet observations on adolescent angst, romance found and lost, and the vagaries of love, Pulliam is truly an old soul in a young body. It’s a tribute to those influences that range from his favorite songwriter Leonard Cohen to the rhythmic drive of the Lumineers, the Americana roots of Ray LaMontagne, the Avett Brothers, Shakey Graves, Fleet Foxes, Dan Auerbach and Caamp to the epic orchestral flourish of Leonard Bernstein, the Beatles and another idiosyncratic personal pick, America.
