Walk On Mars (WOM) is a pop-punk project started by Mary Jo Swank. Terminating gender stereotypes and consistently representing neon green in the coolest way possible, she kicked off WOM's journey on YouTube with about 65,000 views on their powerful cover of My Chemical Romanceʼs “Cancer”. Mary Jo went on to reach over 6.1 million views on her rewrite of "Stacy's Mom", and began WOM's journey on TikTok. HER efforts Have led HER to collaborate with the Johnstown Symphony Orchestra on stage with Grammy award-winning composer, James Blachly, as well as open up for David Michael Frank's Private Party Tour alongside Riot House. Her mission is to write and perform relatable music that can inspire anyone to reach beyond the stars and walk on Mars.
Originally from New York, Julia was raised on classic/alt rock and credits her vast musical palette for her unique take on country pop. Julia started out in the country scene, but is excited to switch gears later in 2024 moving towards an alt/pop sound. With inspiration from the likes of Stevie Nicks, Avril Lavigne, Taylor Swift, Alanis Morissette, and Paramore, Julia brings an undeniable edge to the music scene. After getting her first guitar at the age of 8, Julia started songwriting and music became an instinctual form of therapy. After moving to Nashville in 2021, she has taken every opportunity to perform and hone in on her craft. With an edginess and emotional sincerity in her voice, Julia has the ability to capture audiences of all kinds. Julia released her first three singles in 2023. Her next single “Green” is anticipated for early spring of this year.
Lyssa Coulter is an up-and-coming name in the Country-Rock scene. Coulter has had things on her side since her start in 2016. Only a few months after making her hobby a career, Coulterʼs first release, “By My Side” premiered on iHeartRadioʼs 101.7 The Bull followed by multiple radio appearances/segments by Cumulus and Beasley Media Group stations. After being named “New Act of the Year” in her home region of New England, Coulter quickly grew to discover that there was much more out there to explore in the music industry and made her move to Nashville in 2019. Following the move, her dedication to the music business and personal artistry pushed her to open for acts such as Big & Rich, Little Big Town, Rascal Flatts, and many more on her 2019 “Maybe Tonight” tour. The tour included Taste of Country Music Festival, Country Jam Colorado and Headwaters Country Jam. During the 2020 pandemic, Coulter took the time to self-reflect and grow. She chose to refrain from releasing new music for a year and a half and eventually dropped her single “Alone With U” which made its iTunes Chart debut on the U.S. and U.K. charts. “Alone With U” made its music video debut in March of 2021. In 2022 Coulter released her first country/rock single, “See Me Now” and is embracing the edge moving forward in her music. She continues to travel the country with her band to promote her new country-rock single "CHAOS". Coulter's most recent project consists of an indie artist funded short film to follow her double single "Playhouse" and "Bed We Made". The film follows the story of a woman who has been trapped in a relationship that she had thought was everything she wanted. "Playhouse: The Short Film" is available now!
