Alexis Jade

Alexis Jade, simply put, is an old soul with a new sound. Her relationship with music was cultivated right on the front porch in Rosemark, TN, sitting next to her grandmother as they sang nostalgic songs such as “You are My Sunshine” and “How Much is That Doggy in the Window?” Raised in a house full of music from the 70s, 80s, and 90s, music was an integral part of Jade’s childhood, and she began writing songs at a very young age. This past fall, Alexis Jade signed on to Blue Tom Records at the University of Memphis. Under Blue Tom Records, Jade will be releasing her first solo single, “Return to Sender.” Out to pave a new path for women in country music, Jade has her sights set on bringing a new sound to the time-old tales of heartbreak and loss.

Trinity Adair

Trinity Adair Miller is a Junior Music Business major at the University of Memphis. Trinity was born in a small town in Illinois and grew up in Nashville. Her parents, Everett and Annetta Miller, have always supported her dreams in pursuing music and have pushed her to become the artist she is today. Trinity has an original single titled “If Only” and will be performing that today. Trinity would like to shout out Morgan for the opportunity to be able to showcase her talent and for considering her to perform tonight. She is so honored to be performing alongside other talented female artists and is excited to continue her journey as an artist and student.

Sarah Spain

Toni Mack

Memphis-based singer/songwriter, Toni Mack, has been honing her skills in music for the past several years. Pulling inspiration from her own personal experience as well as those around her, she has been able to produce a sound that is not often heard in her hometown, Alternative Soul. Her music consists of soft vocals intertwined with melodic guitar chords. She is currently still attending college, working hard to perfect her craft. She pulls influence from artists like Lianne La Havas, Corrine Bailey Rae, Esperanza Spalding, and many more talented musicians. She hopes to inspire others to find themselves and to be able to relate to her music. Allowing it to be the spirit guide through it all.
