Music City Unsigned


My junior year of college I had to take Biology. I don't remember our professor's last name, but I know it started with a "P" and her first name was "Angela." I don't think I liked much about this class. Didn't Belmont University know I was there for the music?? Dr. P was nice enough, but Biology isn't really my thing.

The best part about this class, and the reason I'm talking about it (rather than my math or history or Spanish class), was that Dr. P made us get into groups of 4. And these groups did everything together for the whole semester. It was in my group that I met my good friend Rachel. And it was in my group that I met Ryan and Jon. The 4 of us had to come up with our own group name and we chose the "Umami's." It had to relate to biology. I remember making t-shirts that said "Umami said so!" Yea, we were so cool.


Anyway, it's great 5 years later to see what all my friends are up to. Jon has since started an organization called Music City Unsigned that basically helps unsigned artists in Nashville to unite. Jon just has a heart for helping people (and all things good) and does a lot of non-profit work on the side. He is getting ready to launch a non-profit called "Harmony Republic," which I think is really amazing.

this & that is the newest addition to the MCU roster and we are super excited about it. So check it out when you get a chance:
this & that.

Be sure to read the bio Jon wrote for us!!
