Kat Hasty with special guest Ben Danaher

Kat Hasty

The great Bob Dylan once said, "you don't just wake up one day and decide you need to write songs." This quote rings true for the up and comer, Kat Hasty. As a child, before she knew how to put words on paper, she was singing and writing music. Born and raised in west Texas, her upbringing pours through her songwriting in tales of desert highways and the hustle and bustle of oil towns. Laced with heartache, joy, loss and female angst, her songs are ingenious and uniquely her own. The songwriter released her first EP, "Drowning in Dreams" in 2020. Her single,

"Pretty Things" quickly rose in popularity and has taken her and her band all over the country. In her own words, "the show is a little more rock and roll than the stripped down acoustic stuff. We like to have fun." With a new album set to release in May, this up and comer is sure to take wind this year.
 

Ben Danaher

For singer/songwriter Ben Danaher, carrying on a family tradition of storytelling has often led him down darkened roads to haunting, painful reflection on his journey thus far. But Danaher is no longer standing in shadows. The Texas-native is back in a glorious new season of self-reflection with a brand-new, astute and sincere lease on life and love.

Danaher’s latest effort, “The Actor”, packs a powerful punch, rolling along with a tender and restrained edginess. The track deals with a rampant, yet rarely discussed issue in the artist community—the topic of imposter syndrome. The idea came to Danaher after a particularly impactful therapy session. After opening up to producer Sean McConnell on the subject, the two couldn’t stop working until the song was completely tracked.
