Michael Tracy combines straightforward American Rock and Roll with poignant lyrical themes, reminiscent of Rock Singer/Songwriter idols like Tom Petty, Bob Seger, John Mellencamp, and Bruce Springsteen. He has released four studio albums, and has shared the stage with Bon Jovi twice, Poison, George Thorogood, Styx, Foreigner, Don Felder, Foghat, Marshall Tucker Band, Jefferson Starship, Dokken, and the latest in 2019 acoustic sets for Bret Michaels & America. Michael released his latest album Still Got Soul (2017), recorded in Los Angeles with producer/co-writer Sahaj Ticotin. Michael's latest effort is his most ambitious yet, representing an artist who has clearly found his voice and a "lane" to call his own.
It was early 2011 when Michael Tracy began his journey as a singer/songwriter, stepping on stage at a local open mic in Charlotte, NC, to nervously perform some songs he had just written. He had spent his early 20’s in the Navy, stationed on both coasts and traveling to countries throughout the Mediterranean during his time in the military. He married his wife while in the Navy and they have two children together. It was later that Michael joined together his love of words and music as a songwriter, having learned guitar as a child fascinated with books and writing. The open mic performance awakened something in Michael Tracy and he continued honing his chops that first year, jumping on stages all over Charlotte and jamming with local musicians. He went into the studio and recorded his first album, Enough Small Talk, which he released in November 2011.
Over the next two years, Michael put a band together and impressed audiences with his high-energy and soulful performances. By 2013 he won his first of many local and regional awards with the reader’s choice award for Best Songwriter from Creative Loafing Best of Charlotte. He also won the Charlotte Music Awards 2013, and performed his first major opening gig when he was offered the supporting slot for George Thorogood at The Fillmore in Charlotte.
Michael Tracy booked even more high profile supporting gigs in 2014, including opening slots for Styx, Foreigner, Don Felder, Jefferson Starship, Dokken, and Zach Myers (Shinedown), and he ended the year ended with his own headline show at The Fillmore promoted by Live Nation. While spending 2014 performing across the region, Michael also returned to the studio and produced his next album Gonna Smile, which was signed by the indie label Spectra Records and released in February 2015.
Zero to Give is an alternative rock band from Charlotte, NC. We play 90s and 2000s rock (and a few from the 80s) those errahas to offer. We also like to mix in some of our originals music that one day become classics.

Born in Rock Hill, SC, Matt Tucker was raised on country music. Raised in a very musically inclined family, Tucker has always loved to sing and in 2008, he decided to get serious with his music career. He began playing in local honky-tonks with his father around Rock Hill, SC and he soon broke out as a solo artist playing acoustic gigs in the area. Tucker put together his first band a couple of years later and began to realize his full potential. He then started on his journey to Nashville. Tucker is influenced by some of country music's most known legends, such as George Strait, Alan Jackson, Johnny Cash, and Conway Twitty and modern artists like Jake Owen, Jason Aldean, Chris Stapleton, Blake Shelton, Luke Bryan, Kenny Chesney, and Garth Brooks. His southern upbringing shines through his songs and his music reflects the new country sound with some 90’s rockin’ ways.
In 2013, Tucker made lots of friends in “Music City” Nashville, TN and in October of 2013, after being referred by Hall of Fame songwriter, Sam Tate, Tucker became a SESAC-affiliate known as Guitbox Publishing. Later in the same year, he released a four song “EP” produced and engineered by Pat Holt and recorded in Nashville, TN. In December, a CD release party at one of the Southeast's premier country night clubs, Coyote Joes in Charlotte, NC, helped spark his self-written single “Tonight”, a song that gained radio airplay. Tucker finished the new album “Where Did You Go” in 2017, which features versatile, fan-pleasing songs.
Matt’s high-energy stage presence and electrifying show has driven his growth in recent years. Matt and the band are continuing to grow, gaining popularity and fans across the U.S. and beyond. The band, including 5 talented musicians, a built-in Road Manager and Sound Engineer, have their eyes set straight for the top. Having toured the Southeast U.S. promoting the single “Blue Collar Anthem” from the album “Where Did You Go”, the band shared the stage with some of the greatest names in the country music industry such as Jason Michael Carrol, Trent Tomlinson, Blackhawk, Josh Thompson, Jeff Bates, Ray Scott, Outshyne, LoCash, Chase Rice, Chris Lane, Canaan Smith, many regional up-and-comers and the list goes on! Matt and the boys continue to work hard to put together a crowd-pleasing, high-energy show that showcases Matt’s original songs while covering old favorites and current day hits.
Matt Tucker is currently one of the Carolinas’ top independent country acts and he continues to spread his fan-base well beyond the region. Tucker plans to bring the package until the receiver is found! Look out for MT "Country Rockin" a town near you!

noun : A HIGH ENERGY 80’s Rock n’ Roll Tribute guaranteed to send you on an adrenaline rush.
Bending Fate was contrived in 2015. Four area musicians putting together a concept that is rarely seen or heard on the live entertainment circuit. The genre was the easy part. Let’s give the attending audience a high energy show with barely enough time for catching breaths from the best decade of music ever recorded. The decision was to come out BIG first and foremost. BIG sound and BIG production. And then making the decision of what would set us apart from others doing similar shows. NOTHING BUT HITS. But not the ones overplayed on the live circuit. NO “B” sides or deep cuts. Charted songs that everyone knows, loves and rarely hears in a live setting.
Amassing fans from upstate SC to upstate NC and everywhere in between. Bending Fate recently shared the stage with 80’s own Grammy Award nominated bad boys Great White. They truly believe in bringing a concert feel to a scaled down venue setting. A night with Bending Fate will be a night talked about long after it’s over.

From Dylan’s humble beginnings on a 60-acre farm in Walnut Cove, NC, he has carved his own road. Whether it be writing songs to loading equipment and everything in between, Matt walks the walk. Dylan isn’t one to shy away from hard work. His “never say die” attitude resulted in his first single (2009) “Carolina Moonshine” being featured in a movie, on the Travel Channel, along with a cameo appearance by NASCAR Hall of Fame driver, Junior Johnson in the music video.
An accomplished songwriter, one of Dylan’s recent songs “I’ve Been Redeemed” was cut by the Grammy nominated group The Grascals. The song went on to hit #1 twice on the Bluegrass/Gospel charts.
Matt has opened for Rascal Flatts, Luke Combs, Montgomery Gentry, Aaron Tippen, Confederate Railroad, The Moonshine Bandits, Shooter Jennings, Pat Green, Sister Hazel and several others but, Dylan isn’t one to rest on past accomplishments. Playing hundreds of shows over the last few years Dylan was hungry for more. Teaming with Producer Dan Frizsell of Legends Studio, Matt set out to record his 3rd studio project. The first single “Strong” shipped to radio May 7th, 2019, the EP is available now everywhere you stream or purchase music.
While Matt will tell you he’s a husband and father first, he will also tell you he is blessed with a tremendous amount of support from his family and friends. When not on the road, Dylan hosts a local radio show and stays busy writing new music. Matt’s drive and passion are evident in his high energy shows and in the stories he tells. From the farm to the stage Matt has one gear, overdrive.

Fifty Year Rebellion was born in a small, loud shed in Lake Wylie, SC. Jam sessions soon became original songwriting sessions. We realized we weren’t alone. Others our age missed the old rock and roll we grew up on. More of our music- oriented friends wanted to participate. Now we see ourselves as a club; a consortium. A vehicle that lets us keep playing, keeps us creating and enables us to avoid ever really growing up.
