Real & Hook Entertainment Hosts Exclusive Song Showcase in Nashville This October

Real & Hook Entertainment is set to light up East Nashville with an exclusive songwriter and artist showcase at The Bowery Vault on Monday, October 20, 2025, at 4:30 PM. The event will bring together three standout voices from the independent scene: Dolan, David Vogel, and Randy Ryder, each carving their own lane in modern music.

Leading the lineup is Dolan, a Top 20 Texas radio artist and hit songwriter known for blending country, rock, and soul. The showcase follows the release of his new single “Leave the Light On," a track Dolan describes as “about being open to vulnerability, leaving the world behind and allowing your senses to have a complete, real-time experience.” Influenced by the likes of Leon Bridges and Teddy Swims, Dolan brings heartfelt storytelling and southern grit to every note.

Joining him is David Vogel, the New York-born, Nashville-based indie-pop artist who first captured national attention on The Voice as part of Team Ariana Grande. With his upcoming single “Bottle of Blues” arriving October 29, Vogel continues to build momentum with his cinematic sound and introspective lyricism, balancing slick pop production with raw emotional depth.

Rounding out the evening is Randy Ryder, a Louisiana native and Emmy-nominated songwriter known for his honest, soul-baring approach to southern storytelling. After years spent on the road and raising two children as a single father, Ryder’s return to music has been marked by heartfelt releases like “Heart on Hold” and “You Are,” which have resonated with fans around the world.

The Real & Hook Showcase promises an intimate evening celebrating authenticity, vulnerability, and connection through music, a rare glimpse into the creative pulse driving Nashville’s next wave of independent artists. Click here to RSVP.
