Mel Bryant & The Mercy Makers
Mel Bryant leads with her bass, her big mouth, and her radical heart. The Mercy Makers keep her sane and channel her passions into a project that is equal parts visceral and sensitive, with a fresh youthful take on classic rock, pop punk & folk foundations, their inspirations ranging from the Allman Brothers to Green Day to Laura Marling. Their breakout single Never Thought was featured on Spotify Editorial playlists, and won them a Finalist award in the International Songwriting Competition. In the true spirit of an independent band, they record & produce their music out of a converted barn studio in the backyard of the house they share in East Nashville, Tennessee. Their latest single I Don’t Wanna Live (Like This) is out now on all platforms, and their long awaited sophomore album is due for release in summer 2025.

Sam on Someday
Sam on Someday is an ongoing live music series hosted by Time Sawyer’s Sam Tayloe that brings together diverse songwriters and musicians in collaborative performances. The show always shines a spotlight on songwriting, whether it’s freshly minted songs by local songwriters, or favorite covers.
Musical guests include fan favorites from the Charlotte and North Carolina music community, as well as touring bands and artists.
Each Sam on Someday is a unique, one-time-only event that is not to be missed. It’s a genre-busting experience where a rapper, a banjo player, a folk singer, a violinist and a blues guitarist might share the stage and create something completely new together.
The project started as a weekly livestream every Sunday during the pandemic but has since grown and flourished as live events at some of Charlotte’s great music venues. Now it can show up anywhere and anytime, so “Sam on Sunday” has become “Sam on Someday.”
But one thing hasn’t changed: Sam on Someday is still a way to reconnect with live music and with friends in an intimate setting. It’s a warm and welcoming celebration of Charlotte’s music scene.
Through his full band vehicle, Time Sawyer, Sam Tayloe blends a grassroots feel with heart-felt lyrics. From introspective ballads to high-energy crowd-pleasers, Time Sawyer’s songs land in that rootsy sweet spot where folk, alt-country and rock gather for a good time.
