West Coast born but East Coast raised, it wasn't until Clayton found himself in the heart of the Texas Music scene that his artistry began. Clay started writing songs in his college frat house he shared with 9 other roommates. During his time at TCU, he spent weekdays in the classroom and weekends on the road opening shows for Corey Kent, Warren Zeiders, Randall King, and the Josh Abbott Band. Clayton was able to jump-start his music career before even graduating college, releasing an eleven-track album titled “Where the Time Goes,” in April of 2023 that has since amassed over 5 million streams to date. His next album, “Start at the End” is set to release October 4th and the 23-year old rising star has quickly become one of country music’s newest artists to watch.

Clayton moved to Nashville after graduating from TCU and has since signed with Concord Music Publishing, CAA, and What’s Good Projects. Clayton has already penned major label cuts as a songwriter, proving himself as more than just a one-dimensional artist. Influenced by many genres and kinds of music, Clayton is inspired by Texas instrumentation from artists such as Mike Ryan, Corey Kent, and Parker McCollum while blending Nashville’s melodies to create a sound of his own.

Caya Crum is a current TCU student, artist and entrepreneur from Fort Worth, Texas. To create her artwork, she uses a variety of mediums, from watercolor, to latex paint, to film photography. She has sold to local collectors, who are very well known in the national and international art communities for their art collections.

She has been commissioned to paint murals for businesses and non-profits, and has been involved in fundraising initiatives, as well as worked with hundreds of individuals on custom work via her Instagram and website. Since arriving to TCU, she has continued to sell her artwork commercially at several events in Fort Worth and beyond, such as the Fort Worth Stockshow and Rodeo, Christmas In Cowtown, ArtsGoggle, and The Armadillo Christmas Bazaar. Recently, she attended a study abroad program in Florence, Italy where she learned several new techniques such as applying paint in a method called “all prima,” which she continues to incorporate in her personal practice.

Before arriving to TCU, she attended a summer study abroad program at NYU for a month. While in high school, she received several awards such as the grand prize in the annual juried art competition “Imagine No Violence” hosted by the non-profit One Safe Place, which provides shelter for women and children of abuse.

In 2021, she entered an art competition hosted by the Sister Cities organization, which partners with cities across the world to send students to different countries to learn about art and culture. The goal of her painting was to spread awareness about the water crisis, and inspire people to take action. This piece won 1st place in the Fort Worth division of the competition.

She has also painted several murals around town, such as those on the exterior of The Bearded Lady Restaurant, The Welman Project, The Swiss Pastry Shop, and inside the Hulen Mall. In addition to this, she was hired to create an art installation on the historic Massey’s Restaurant sign, which is now permanently exhibited inside The Pool Art Space.
