Stevie Rae Stephens & Sean Cunningham
Stevie Rae Stephens & Sean Cunningham have been playing together for the last 3 years in Nashville! The friendship runs deeper than the harmonies. The songwriters began working together at a local bar in Nashville called Belcourt Taps with Pindrop co-founder, Kiernan McMullan. Before long, the three were running the bar and booking the music every weekend. It was in this time that they began singing and writing together and creating the first instance of Pindrop Songwriter Series, a night of music in Nashville named for its listening room environment and strong, supportive community of awe-inspiring songwriters. Over the years, they have started touring the act as a Nashville writers round with a kick. You haven't seen a writers' round like this with harmonies, multi-instrumentals, and friendship. You can find us at Pindrop on Sundays at Sonny’s Clubhouse in Nashville or on the road around the country!

Gaining inspiration from pop piano icons, Katie’s newest project “Limitless,” is sure to capture the hearts of fans of Carol King, The Chicks, and Elton John. The lyrics of weave stories that take us through the mountains of Western Canada, all the way through the forests and plains of the Northwest United States, resolving finally home, at the shores of Lake Michigan where she connected with producer Jake Rye, of Social Recording Company to record her new album, Limitless, which is now available. Katie released a brand new single, Abstract Art, at the end of 2022. The new single signifies the turning of a page to a new chapter for the up and coming songwriter. While her journey has been years in the making, her story it seems, is just beginning.
Genna Matthew
Award-winning folk-pop artist Genna Matthew finds the sonic sweet spot between timeless roots influences and dreamy indie-pop hooks. Her evocative lyrics and crystalline voice cut through the noise, straight to the core. Genna was raised by the vibrant Folk/Amaricana scene of central Virginia. Her bittersweet sound sugarcoats wistful lyrics with honey-smooth vocals. Her songwriting has been recognized both regionally and internationally, most recently as the Grand Prize Winner of Nashville’s Music City Songstar Competition. In 2018 she traded the Blue Ridge Mountains for the Spanish coast, where she completed her Masters in Contemporary Music Performance and Production at Berklee’s Valencia campus. Now based in Nashville, TN, Genna recently wrapped her first full-length record with producer Jake Finch. This forthcoming record is a vibrant departure from her Americana-forward EP, and explores a new sonic space that wraps her folk-inspired writing in a lush, indie-pop atmosphere.
