Meet the Inspiring Talent
Bren Joy
Born and raised in Nashville, Tennessee, Bren Joy began writing music at the start of 2018. That same year he released his first three singles (‘Henny in the Hamptons’, ‘Scottie Pippen’ & ‘Twenties’) which earned placements on editorial playlists and attracted a growing fanbase to the budding artist's career.
In May 2019, Bren released Twenties, an eight-song project embodying the new era of youth emerging around r&b. Merging Bren's love of gospel, R&B, hip-hop, jazz, & pop, twenties touched on the different emotions and experiences encountered during the beginning of one’s twenties, while conveying an underlying theme of hope and self-love. Bren takes pride in imperfection, pointing to the raw, organic nature of East Coast artistry as inspiration for his instrumental landscape.
Following more than 250M+ GLOBAL STREAMS and collaborations with Pink Sweats (with whom bren also toured), Denzel Curry, Landon Sears, and more, Bren Joy returned on May 2, 2024 with his new single ‘Take Care’. ‘Take Care’ is the first taste of Bren’s forthcoming full-length album and tells a love story wherein Bren was forced to hold the emotional weight of his partner.
The new music points to the many forms of love, and Bren is able to tap into each formation with a meticulous, authentically playful nature. He brings together fresh experimentation with a timeless class, merging worlds of jazz, folk, pop, and R&B to craft a distinctively captivating sonic universe that pays homage to the past while also creating a path to a rare and significant future. Like the unexpected turns of romance, or the strange, cathartic discoveries of self, Bren Joy captures what lies on the other side of the door, his hand extended.

Emyrson Flora
Emyrson Flora (American Idol’s youngest star to make the top ten in 2022) brings you her debut single “air”.
Growing up, writing music was my sanctuary. From the moment I could speak, it became my therapy. In my childhood bedroom, at my little keyboard or on my pink guitar, I poured my hopes, fears, successes, and failures into melodies. I idolized artists like Adele and Taylor Swift, and wrote silly songs whenever my parents annoyed me or when I had disagreements with friends.As I grew older, life became more complex. You meet people, fall in love, and sometimes get hurt. Over the past two and a half years, I've written countless songs about those ups and downs—probably enough for 500 albums—all revolving around the same situation.
On the day I wrote “air,” I had a moment of clarity. While getting ready, I listened to some tracks from my upcoming EP, "Every Song is About You," and wondered how I could have such profound and genuine feelings about something that was never truly mine. That realization gave me a new perspective when I walked into the studio that day.
We are human, and every emotion we experience is real and valid. Situationships, those undefined and often painful relationships, are just as real as any other, and they leave a lasting impact.
I wrote this song for the people who feel deeply, love deeply, and hurt deeply. Sometimes we try to hold onto things or people that really can’t be held onto anymore. the same way we can hold onto air.
