Brittonhas been creating and performing music for over three decades. He has also become a very successful artist mentor. (I know... I've coached many of his clients.) He has now mentored, written with & produced over 100 artists in his home studio.
Britton has been a staff writer for Hamstein Music Group, Warner Chappell, Windswept Music, Crossfire 3, The SongFactory and Big Machine Music. His songs have been recorded by artists including LoneStar, Jack Ingram, Jon Pardi, Steel Magnolia, Sister Hazel, and Don Williams... and tons of amazing indie artists.
Kaci has written with some of the most renowned tunesmiths in country music such as Don Schlitz and Mark Narmore. Kaci was also a top session singer in Nashville, singing demos of songs that got cut by Carrie Underwood, Leann Rimes, Julie Roberts, Sara Evans, and many more. She sang with Gwenyth Paltrow in “Country Strong".
She is now a full time kindergarten teacher (I've got to ask her about that transition:), but once a music maker, always! She and Britton met while pursuing their own solo careers and backing each other up. The solo set-lists quickly transformed into songs that showcased their raw harmonies sharing the center stage, and acoustic based pop-country duo 'The Broken Locals' was born!

I recorded some hits on MTM Records in the 80s, and in 2015 joined with my husband to create a new project of original songs. You can find that at JohnandJudy Rodman.com. Most of you know my main focus is now vocal coaching. If you want to know more of my journey go to
