SOUTHERN ROCKER MICHAEL SHAUN BROWN RELEASES NEW SINGLE “MASERATI”

Nashville, TN (November 30, 2023) – Southern Rocker Michael Shaun Brown returns to the country music scene with the release of his hot new single “Maserati.” You can listen to the song HERE!

With suggestive yet captivating lyrics like from a backseat in Memphis, that’s how I got my name, “Maserati” showcases Michael Shaun Brown’s natural flair for storytelling.

“More than anything, I hope that people appreciate the fact that the music I make is real and pure,” MSB shares. “From the writing of the songs, to the recording process, to the final product. I just want folks to dig real music, played by real people, for real people.”


About Michael Shaun Brown:

Born and raised in the heart of Appalachia, Michael Shaun Brown’s musical roots run deep. When you grow up a few miles from the birthplace of country music, you tend to have the simple beginnings and the soul of country music in your blood. Brown left his home in Southwest Virginia in 2011 and made his way to Nashville to pursue his career in country music and hone his skills in songwriting and musicianship. He spent time writing and recording by day and performed in the Honky Tonk bars by night. He played thousands of shows and formed a Southern Rock/Alt country band called Bone Feather, which made two records and toured all over the country.


Michael has had the privilege of sharing the stage with music hit-makers like Toby Keith, Jamey Johnson, Randy Houser, Kid Rock, Montgomery Gentry, Joe Diffie, Terri Clark, Mark Wills, Travis Tritt, Dillon Carmichael, the Kentucky Headhunters and more.
 

When the Pandemic of 2020 hit, Michael made the decision to relocate his family to Missouri, where he is now raising his daughters in a more rural environment like the one that he got to enjoy as a child. Michael continues to write and record music and enjoys the more subtle atmosphere.

On December 26th, 2020, MSB released “From the Start” – his first single as a solo artist since 2015 – with the heartfelt message to his wife (Aaryn). He wrote the song as a surprise to her on their wedding day, which also had to be rescheduled due to COVID-19. With a fresh and simple sound, Brown has taken a new direction in his artistry with this track, implementing the influences of his southern Appalachian roots while expressing his true emotions as a modern love song.

Michael’s subsequent single, “Maserati,” is now available on all streaming platforms.

COUNTRY BREAKOUT ARTIST BYRDIE WILSON RELEASES NEW SINGLE “WHERE MY ROOTS RUN”

Nashville, TN (November 17, 2023) – Country breakout artist Byrdie Wilson recently released her new single “Where My Roots Run.” You can listen to the song HERE!

With illustrative, storytelling lyrics like a mix of Sunday morning church bells and a redneck raising hell, “Where My Roots Run” is an autobiographical montage of Byrdie’s life.

“This song echoes the legacy of my family, reminding me of the importance of honoring our past,” Byrdie shares. “It’s a testament to the strength and resilience that comes from embracing where we come from, regardless of the circumstances. Although I have northern roots, most of my experiences took place in the south when my family moved to South Carolina after the terrorist attacks on 9/11. Through this melody, I celebrate the growth and transformation that has shaped me, acknowledging that our roots, no matter how challenging, have the power to inspire and define our journey.”

Beginning in December, Byrdie will also be embarking on her “Where My Roots Run” mini hometown tour. She will be making a special stop at Coffee Underground in Greenville, SC, in honor of her late boyfriend, whom Byrdie lost to suicide. Proceeds from the show will benefit the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention South Carolina (AFSPSC). Tickets are donation-based ($10-$100) and can be purchased HERE.

“Where My Roots Run” Tour Dates:
12/14 – Sweet Sippin’- Simpsonville, SC
12/15 – Bullwinkles Tavern – Simpsonville, SC 
12/16 – Warehouse at Vaughn’s – Simpsonville, SC 
12/18 – Warehouse at Midtown – Greenville, SC
12/19 – Coffee Underground – Greenville, SC
12/21 – 1885 Taproom – Simpsonville, SC

Byrdie will also be speaking to students at Mauldin High School about the importance of mental health. “It is often a challenge coming home because it brings back so many memories,” Byrdie explains. “I’d love to turn my visit into a positive.”

About Byrdie Wilson:
Born in New York and transplanted to South Carolina when she was 4 years old, Byrdie Wilson was born with a cleft palate and endured several surgeries. With the likelihood that her speech would still be impaired, countless hours and lots of sleepless nights were spent researching the best care for her to make sure she would not face the challenges that children with cleft palate and facial deformities deal with. Tears would fall on her newborn face as her mom would rock her to sleep, praying that she’d be able to talk and hear normally. 

With lots of love and affection, Byrdie evolved into a sassy little six-year-old and performed in a talent show she signed herself up for. As she was getting ready, she instructed her family that they “needed to get on board because she’s going to be someone!”


Working in her early years with vocal coaches Celeste Simone and American Idol coach, Michael Orland, Byrdie was prepared to work with The Peter Frampton Band‘s musician, singer/songwriter Rob Arthur, to produce her first three songs “Fool for You,” “Stay” and “Breaking Free” in 2018.  

She took a brief hiatus from music in 2019 and 2020, but it wasn’t until the death of her boyfriend in November 2020 when she found solace and healing in her song writing again.  Through her experience, Byrdie has become an advocate of mental health and suicide prevention.  In March 2021, Byrdie found the guidance, mentorship and friendship of musician, singer/songwriter and producer Erik Halbig

At 19, Byrdie took the leap and moved to Nashville, TN, turning up the volume on her natural-born “sass” with even more feistiness.  Her single “Broadway” gained traction on TikTok with over 49K views and the song currently has over 17K streams on Spotify.

She released her newest single “Where My Roots Run” on November 17, 2023, along with her second music video.

Giselle’s piano on the gentle ‘Heal’ and Erik’s Brazilian guitar on ‘I’ve Been Thinking’ are among the highlights on this soothingly quiet release.”
