Growing up in rural Oklahoma, Wyatt Zane has always dreamt of being a musician. He received his first guitar at the age of eleven and joined his first band at sixteen years old. He continued traveling and performing with the band until moving to Weatherford, Ok. to pursue a college education. His passion for music continued to grow, as he found his place playing lead guitar for another emerging band. Wyatt’s confidence as a musician grew and made the decision to branch off as an independent artist playing acoustic shows for many well-known venues all over Oklahoma and Texas. He is no stranger to the Oklahoma music scene, as he has been blessed to perform at Calf fry festival in Stillwater, OK., The Hard Rock Casino in Tulsa, Ok., Bubba’s Brewhouse in Durant, Ok., JJ’s Alley in OKC, The Tumbleweed in Stillwater, OK. and countless others opening for major Nashville and Texas country artist. In early 2021, Wyatt recorded his first two singles with Grammy winning producer Casey Wood. His first release “Like a Melody” soared onto the Top 100 Texas Radio Charts, and made its debut on the Texas Music Pickers Playlist, climbing its way up to #54. After countless fan requests, Wyatt began the search for the perfect talent to complete his band. Each member brings their own unique, powerful artistry to the stage with every performance. We have Rydder Hayes on lead guitar, Mitchell Spille on guitar and keys, Hayden Pennington on bass, and Jeremy Hayes on the drums. This electric group of talented musicians is ready to bring the heat to a stage near you.

Chloe began writing songs from a very young age. She recalls her first memory writing was when she was on a cattle drive around age five. “We were on the reservation where I’m from in Twin Buttes. It was a long day and my little sister, and I were riding behind the huge herd, and I just started making up a song. Cate soon joined in, and it was a song we remembered for a long time but now, can’t recall. I remember it was happy though, and about a red wagon.” Her mom would always call Chloe her little singing birdy, a name that soon stuck and stayed with her in her music career. Some of Chloe’s fondest memories are singing alongside her dad, who still resides with his wife and Chloe’s mother, Kami in North Dakota.  She was raised on a ranch there all of her life and learned by the cowboy way of living. If you get bucked off of a horse, you get right back on. It helped carry Chloe through the more trying times in the ever-changing music business.

At the age of 7 Finis was given his great grandmother’s fiddle. While running track at Tarleton State University his love of music blossomed and he started taking fiddle and guitar lessons.
