Recording artist Stephanie James brings an evocative, fresh experience to the world of pop music. With a voice often described as “stunning” and “soulful,” Stephanie is a gifted storyteller who masterfully touches the hearts and souls of her fans. Brilliantly conveying the fragility and gravity of intense feelings through her voice, she brings them along on an emotional journey woven through each and every song. Whether in a small room or a crowd of thousands, she connects so intimately with audiences that many have said she can move them to tears and gracefully bring them to the heights of joy.


James released her debut album, Unbreakable, in collaboration with Grammy-nominated producers Jorel Corpus and Simone Torres. The album explores vulnerability, self-reliance, themes of growing up, and learning from the past. Maya Angelou’s poem, “Caged Bird,” is featured among songs with hints of country and soul. Stephanie hopes to empower her listeners to overcome their struggles and discover that we are all “Unbreakable.”


Both raw and refined musically, the songs solidify Stephanie’s status as a poised and powerful performer often likened to a revival of legendary Linda Ronstadt combined with modern-day super talents Sara Bareilles and Kacey Musgraves.


In addition to 10 years of classical and pop vocal coaching, Stephanie was technically trained at Berklee where she strengthened her skills as a singer, musician, and songwriter. Yet, it was years on stages from Boston to New York, Los Angeles, and beyond—including such notable venues as Boston's Symphony Hall, Agganis Arena, Rockwood Music Hall, and Hotel Cafe—that brought her full talent to life on stage and off.


Late Night Thoughts is the indie-pop duo of Michael Harlow and Brian Rauch. Michael is the music and harmony to Brian's lyrics and melody as the two share their complementary talents to create a unique combination of singer-songwriter stylings with anthemic pop production.


Both Michael and Brian began their musical journeys at a young age. Brian has been singing since he can remember, echoing tunes from John Mayer to Elton John. Michael's musical journey began with the drums and later expanded to piano, guitar, ukulele, melodica, bass, banjo, and last but not least, didgeridoo.


The pair met while attending Brandeis University and began to write and perform across Massachusetts. They forged a friendship through a shared love for songwriting as they realized their keen ability to find optimism amidst personal growth.


Their first EP, Moonlit Memories, was released in 2018 and helped them burst onto the scene behind their singles "Shit Happens" and "What Love Truly Means," as they grew their audience by performing locally and at colleges up and down the East Coast. Before graduating, they released their second EP, Worth It, as a culmination of their bittersweet goodbye to college, collectively amassing over three million streams on various platforms. Garnering praise from multiple outlets such as Popternative, NYS Music, and Aesthetic Magazine, their early releases have given the duo a dedicated fanbase across the country.
