The Brook And The Bluff

Expertly crafted songs and sublime musicianship are the backbone of Nashville-based band The Brook & The Bluff. Originally from Birmingham, AL, the band’s name is derived from the pockets of Birmingham where they grew up—Bluff Park for frontman Joseph Settine, and Mountain Brook for drummer John Canada, keyboardist Kevin Canada, and guitarist Alec Bolton.

Stephen Sanchez

Stephen Sanchez is a singer, songwriter, and guitarist with a rich, velvety voice and an old-school aesthetic. Taking insperation from pop crooners like Frank Sinatra, Nat King Cole, the Platters, and the Ink Spots. The Northern California native found success in 2022 with the ballad “Until I Found You,” which became a massive hit. The song anchored his debut album, Angel Face, which cracked Billboard’s Top 100 in 2023.

Before that, Sanchez had released a cover version of Cage the Elephant’s “Cigarette Daydreams”. This helped secure him a deal with Republic Records. In 2021, he issued the six-song EP What Was, Not Now, which garnered millions of streams. His sophomore EP, Easy on My Eyes, appeared the following year and included “Until I Found You.” In the front half of 2023, Sanchez offered up the singles “Evangeline” and “Only Girl,” then headed out on a headlining tour to promote them.

In June, while in the U.K., he appeared at Glastonbury Festival alongside Elton John, who accompanied him on “Until I Found You.” All this led up to the September release of Sanchez’s debut album, Angel Face. A loose concept album about a ’50s troubadour in love with the femme fatale girlfriend of a mob boss, Angel Face reached number 90 on the Billboard 200 and charted in the U.K., Europe, and Oceania. Its success prompted the release of a deluxe version in April 2024 featuring the song “The Other Side.”
