Accompanied by vintage tones, cinematic symphonies and honest acoustics, Bound to Nowhere is singer-songwriter Ash Powell’s introductory debut. While bringing her listeners on a beautiful journey through the landscapes and experiences of her life, Powell delivers contemporary Americana classics to the forefront of today’s music, blending influences of Brandi Carlile and Patti Smith with her uniquely discovered sense of self. The 28-year old queer musician was raised in Franklin, Tennessee but drifted through many places across the country since then, looking for answers but gaining the knowledge she needed without knowing it. Bound to Nowhere is about movement: the physical and metaphorical notion of moving from one place, person, chapter to another and carrying a piece of those individual adventures with you forever.

Nashville duo Haunted Like Human delves into inspired songwriting, sparse arrangements, and frisson-inducing harmonies that mark their music. With a background in poetry and prose, Dale Chapman's granular focus on language is simpatico with Cody Clark’s background in classical guitar, where each note carries its own weight. Limned with nostalgia, soaked in Southern gothic lore, the duo meticulously assembles songs to preserve the spirit of the stories they tell.
Praise for Tall Tales & Fables:
"... resembles the wisdom a grey sparrow might sing you after it lands on a fence from a long flight north." - American Songwriter
"Take a cup of orchestrated folk, sprinkle in some angelic harmonies, and pour in full-bodied production and you get the earthy joy of this Nashville duo." - Glide Magazine
"Engaging, honest, intimate and haunting." - At The Barrier
"Tall Tales & Fables requires the listener’s full attention to appreciate properly Haunted Like Human’s poignant, sparse musical style."
