Colyer with Ali Angel

Born in North Carolina, raised in Michigan and now based in LA, Colyer’s sound is inspired by each place he’s called home. A multifaceted musician, producer, and songwriter, he’s collaborated with artists like Ethel Cain, Medium Build, and Stephen Dawes.

His most recent work, Scratchers, gives listeners the feeling of unearthing an album that their dad made and never released. Rooted in timeless songwriting and studio recordings of the 60s and 70s, Colyer brings Dad Twang to life through a landscape of tape hisses, dry acoustic guitars, wall-of-sound orchestral moments, and earnest storytelling. This EP is the soundtrack to your highway desert dreams.

With her retro soul meets indie twang style, LA native musician Ali Angel is carving out her own distinct space within the live music scene of Los Angeles. With powerhouse vocals and classic, nostalgia-evoking songwriting, her sound has been frequently compared to the likes of a modern day Sheryl Crow, familiar yet distinctly original and new. Her songs have received editorial placements like Spotify’s, “The New Retro” and “Fresh Finds” and Apple Music’s, “New in Alternative”, along with prominent TV placements in shows like Paramount Plus’ “Tulsa King”. A fixture in the LA live music scene, Angel and her band have held residencies and played packed shows at prominent venues all over the city, from Good Times at Davey Waynes to Desert 5 Spot, Gold Diggers, Hotel Cafe and Moroccan Lounge. Her upcoming 2025 EP, “Is This Really Happening?” Is her best work yet; a collection of songs that mix her retro-twangy classic sound with a modern indie touch, while lyrically tapping into bolder and more vulnerable topics like sexuality, mental health, and self-discovery.
