Over the years, their paths have forked, crossed, and finally come back together in Nashville, TN to form Sorted Noise. As writers, their songs can be heard on platinum selling records, hit TV shows like The Hills and Grey’s Anatomy, and seen at the tops of the AC and CHR charts. As performers, they share the stage with blockbuster acts like Beyonce’, Rihanna, and Sugarland, on shows like The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, the American Music Awards, and Good Morning America. And, as producers, they are combining the years of experience with their wide range of tastes and talents to create pieces of work that are unique and purposeful.
