Cody Simpson's third full-length album and frst for his very own Coast House Records, Free, signals the start of something new. In 2014, the Australian-born Los An- geles-based singer and songwriter found himself inde- pendent for the frst time as he thought this was the best path for him moving forward in his musical career. Tat independence invigorated and inspired a furry of creativity as well as an insatiable desire to collaborate where he ended up in a Malibu studio overlooking the ocean with producer Cisco Adler.

Jaehn has called her “a talented and rising superstar.” Tompson’s crystalline vocals have also captured the attention of Avicii, Naughty Boy and Passenger. In 2014, Tompson caught the ear of German DJ/pro- ducer, Robin Schulz, who tapped her to feature on his track “Sun Goes Down.” “Her voice has a global sensibility and the potential to reach the world," Schulz says. 2M+ Subscribers 106K+ Followers 900K+ Fans 500K+ Followers Big Machine’s latest signee, Midland hail from Dripping Springs, Texas and pick up on the spirit of the greater country music heyday of the 1970’s and 80’s.
