Songwriters in the round

Ben Gage is a songwriter from Akron, Ohio, shaped by the rust belt’s grit and the open countryside along the Great Lakes.  His roots run deep in Midwest’s working-class spirit—where tenacity, family, and a hard day’s work aren’t just values but a way of life. That same spirit runs through his music. He doesn’t sugarcoat life’s ups and downs, but he doesn’t hammer you over the head with ideas either—he just tells it like it is, weaving raw human experience into every song.

In the fall of 2021, Ben walked away from a career in corporate America to chase music full-time. Now, he crisscrosses the country, trading stories, playing songs, and collecting more along the way.
Folk and blues have always been about passing stories down, and that’s what fuels Ben’s songwriting—it’s not just about him; it’s about pulling you into something familiar. The best stories don’t get lost in complexity; they just tell the truth. That’s why when you hear his songs, they don’t just sound new—they feel like something you’ve always known.

Zach Aaron. Hailing from Cleveland, Texas, this singer-songwriter blends timeless authenticity with a rugged edge. With an elegantly tarnished tenor voice, intricate finger-picked guitar melodies, and lyrics that dance between raw honesty and poetic abstraction, Zach Aaron crafts music that feels both grounded in tradition and strikingly original.
Zach’s story is as colorful as his music. He’s lived, performed, taken on odd jobs, served years in the U.S. Air Force, and currently is a horseshoe farrier and rides in the amateur Texas rodeo circuit as a saddle bronc rider. These experiences have shaped not just the man, but the storyteller. Falling under the broad Americana banner, Zach’s music is a masterful blend of influences that fans of Townes Van Zandt, Adam Carroll, Doc Watson, and the Turnpike Troubadours’ Evan Felker will appreciate. His songs resonate with an authenticity that transcends time, weaving tales of heartache, grit, and the beauty found in life’s quieter moments.

Taylor Lamborn's sound is just as powerful and full of personality as she is. A little indie rock-a lot of blues-but at the heart of it all, she's singer/songwriter with the type of grit that digs straight into your soul. 
Lamborn captivates audiences with her emotive performances. She has played in a variety of venues, radio stations, and festivals throughout the continental US. She has notably been sought out by Producers of ABC’s American Idol 2014 and 2015 to be part of the show, won Cleveland's 2013 Warner Brothers showcase at House of Blues, and was featured as Taylor Guitar's "Player of the Week".
