Austin Meade Bio Thanks to his metal- and classic-rock loving dad, Meade got to see bands like Judas Priest and worshipped Whitesnake. In junior high he related to the intense emo-rock of Paramore and Fall Out Boy, and the power of songwriters like John Mayer. Yet, thanks to plainspoken but deep heartland songwriters like Tom Petty, and cutting his teeth touring in the Texas and Oklahoma Red Dirt scene, Meade’s music overflows with wide-open soulfulness. He was a drummer for years, even teaching to pay the bills, but Meade found his true voice when he began playing guitar as a teen in his pastor-father’s church. Those experiences lend both a gravitas and rebelliousness to Meade’s songs and self. Now the frontman of his own band slinging guitar licks with expert precision, his music rolled out with two releases in 2014, his first EP “Long Ways To Go” followed by his first full-length album “Chief Of The Sinners.” His next EP “Heartbreak Coming” came in 2016 with a couple of singles to announce his commencement on the Texas Music Chart, followed by his second full-length album “Waves” in 2019. In 2021, Meade introduced his third LP 'Black Sheep' including the hit tracks "Happier Alone," "Cave In,"'Dopamine Drop," and "Deja Vu." Meade released his fourth LP 'Abstract Art Of An Unstable Mind' fall of 2022, further showcasing his ability to seamlessly blend genres into a groovy yet piercingly fresh sound of rock 'n' roll. Now comes for a new era ushering in Meade's latest rock EP ‘Pretty Little Waist’ featuring singles “Blackout,” released with Danny Worsnop of Asking Alexandria, Stoner Fantasy, and “Insignificant Other” featuring Sam Canty and Lance Vanley of Treaty Oak Revival. Sterling Elza Bio Sterling Elza is a Red Dirt singer/songwriter raised deep in the Texas Panhandle. Born into a ranching family that had 3 musicians, Sterling took to music from the beginning with guitar lessons starting at the age of 5. Drawing influences from his parents' music which could range from "old school Red Dirt" to top 40 country all the way to grunge and classic rock, Sterling began his musical journey. Sterling continued taking guitar lessons until he moved to Florida where he played tennis at the IMG Academy. After the passing of his uncle -- "Big Ster" -- and 3 years in Florida, Sterling decided it was time to make a change and fully commit to a life and career in music. A move back to Texas seemed like the perfect choice for a budding songwriter. Now calling New Braunfels home, Sterling launched into the Red Dirt scene with the 2024 release of his debut album, Simpler Days. His album cracked the Top 25 Rock Albums on Apple, and the following week, his single Next Week entered the Top 40 Apple Rock Songs chart. The love of music and the passion to perform drive him to continue perfecting his craft and learning from some of the best in the business. With a five-piece band and a wall of sound, it won't be long before Sterling Elza is a household name in Red Dirt music. Full bar available during events.
