The country band 12/OC was born in their family kitchen in Portland Maine, when brothers Will and Reid were both still just kids. Country music was always playing in their household and making music together was simply put, the way of life. The band started to find its groove at open mic nights throughout the region, which became the foundation to turning this family pastime into a family career. As their popularity has grown so has their versatility; their wide range of music has helped increase their fan base across the country making them one of the fastest growing country music acts in New England. Having the most requested song on Maine’s #1 Country Music station for 16 straight weeks, as well as adding a hand full of New England Music Awards, 12/OC isn’t slowing down anytime soon.

Callista Clark

Callista Clark has a lot to say, wielding her creative gifts while putting all of her various musical influences on display with her full-length album Real To Me: The Way I Feel. Produced by Nathan Chapman (Taylor Swift, Lionel Richie, Keith Urban, Mickey Guyton), the album reveals a songwriter of considerable depth and wit and a gifted singer with confidence and an impressive presence unique to someone her age. Co-writing every track, the Zebulon, GA native exudes both strength and vulnerability in pointed lyrics that leave no doubt where she stands as reflected on songs like “Brave Girl,” “Gave It Back Broken” and Top 20 debut “It’s ‘Cause I Am,” with which she became Country radio’s most successful new artist debut of 2021. Joining Opry NextStage’s class of 2022, the 2021 iHeartCountry On The Verge Artist has been featured two years in a row on Billboard’s annual “21 Under 21” list and was the youngest member ever named to CMT’s Next Women of Country in the 2022 class. With TV appearances on TODAY show, Live with Kelly & Ryan and KTLA, Callista has garnered acclaim from Forbes, PEOPLE, American Songwriter, Hollywood Life, and more.

Isaiah Bennett

Isaiah Bennett is an Acoustic/Folk artist based out of Portland, Maine. After leaving southern Maine at the young age of 18, Bennett lived in Boise, Idaho and Northern California, where he began playing acoustic covers of popular songs in wine bars and pubs. It was during those years that Bennett pulled from his background in Christian music to add soulful interpretations to his cover music while beginning to pen songs of his own.

In 2014, Bennett made it onto the hit TV show American Idol and got through several rounds before being voted off.

His first EP “HORIZONS” was released in 2014 and features six original songs written and produced by Bennett. “VESSELS” was released in 2016 and made it to #9 on the iTunes Gospel & Praise charts.

Bennett now resides in Southern Maine with his wife and two children. He continues to travel the area opening for bands, playing weddings, private parties and in local musical hot-spots. His live shows consist mainly of his own songs and popular cover songs, but always with a twist.
