MIKE FRAZIER
Mike Frazier is a lyric-spinning Virginian who blends Americana, folk, and rock ‘n’ roll music to tell tales of life in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia. Drawing on everything from the widescreen romanticism of Bruce Springsteen to the socially conscious urgency of The Clash.

REBECCA PORTER
Rebecca Porter’s brand of country music is heartfelt and honest. A voice that cuts through the smoke and odors of the divey-est bar in town, soaring with listeners to the highest of highs and singing them through the lowest of lows.

In 2021, Porter premiered a highly anticipated showcase of all original music and recorded her debut EP with River Wash Recording in Richmond, VA. February 2022, Porter independently released her debut EP – Prime Rainbow Conditions – with rave reviews. In an interview with Adobe & Teardrops, Rachel Cholst described, “Porter’s new song ‘Prime Rainbow Conditions’ channels classic country perfection with swooning guitars and the clear, brilliant tone of Porter’s voice documenting the early weeks of lockdown.” Within the first weeks of release, “Prime Rainbow Conditions” was featured by several playlist curators including Music Mecca’s “Back Country Bangers” and “Top 25”, The Women of Country’s weekly curations “New Music Friday” and “Top Ten Tuesday”, and was voted to be a part of music distributor DistroKid’s “DistroKid Country” playlist.

Most recently, The Women of Country exclusively premiered the music video for Porter’s ballad “Shadow of Doubt”. Porter’s music and vocal talents are compared to the likes of Valerie June, Kelsey Waldon, and Bonnie Raitt.
