KayBe
Primary Genre: Singer/Songwriter
Secondary Genre: Pop
Specialty: Lyrics/Melody
KayBe loves being a writer. It's insanely freeing, but also vicariously imaginative and adventurous. Writing has allowed her to explore many personalities and traits and also helped her heal closed doors and foster new openings. She’s a very conversational writer. Very poetic in symmetry and making sure every single thing has a purpose and reason, whether that be a word choice or flip in the melody, but also, her lyrics and styling choices are very straightforward. She believes in truth and saying exactly how you feel, unmanipulated and simply honest. She loves soaring melodies, doing something our talking voices can't, and she loves elevating words and feelings so often on our hearts to heights unable to be reached without these unique combination of sounds.
KayBe starts from anywhere authentic, whether it's a melody that comes first or a phrase she hears from whomever/wherever. And then the rest of the story builds from there. She loves providing the groundwork for a starting project and then editing with other writers and working to match the artist or she love coming in later to help a project to reach its full potential. KayBe also likes to work on top of a beautiful track to write a wonderful melody and lyrics to match the mood or to take lyrics and find a sound suitable. She prefers to work from the ground up on her piano, or experiment with sounds and then write a melody over a vibe she’s created in logic. Her favorite content is anything about love as she believes love should be involved in all things. KayBe also specialize in empowerment anthems and storytelling.
laura Mustard
Primary Genre: Pop
Secondary Genre: Americana/Folk
Specialty: Lyrics/Melody
Laura Mustard has been writing songs in her bedroom since 2004. She won the Woodsongs Singer/Songwriter Contest at Uconn in 2010 and relocated to Nashville, TN to be a part of the songwriting community in 2015. Laura has crafted many earworm melodies that get lodged in people's heads, based on frequent first hand reporting ("Treehouse" is a constant culprit), though she is driven by lyrics and storytelling. Laura is known for turning a phrase and writing with wit (such as the self-deprecating "Eager" that takes cracks at her own terrible dating history), but she has also created introspective and vulnerable songs ("She Must Go" about shame and "Yesterday's Rain" about resilience). Laura got her first "cut" as a songwriter in 2020 with "Colour Will Come Back" that was co-written and released by UK Country artist, Sabine. Laura cut her teeth on pop singer/songwriters such as John Mayer, Gavin DeGraw and Taylor Swift, but she is also greatly influenced by Motown, folk and country music. Laura Mustard is an honest and clever songwriter to have in the room when you are telling your story.

With a cunning, smart lyrical bent, he has written about such subjects as "Last Call," an ex lover getting "Engaged," a suicide prevention awareness anthem "This Day Won't Last Forever," as well as a winking story about millennials "Ballad of a 90s Baby." With influences from The Beatles to Weezer to Finneas to Kacey Musgraves and everything in between, this is the writer you want in your corner.
