CLAIRE CONWAY: www.claireconwaymusic.com/
"Lyrically, Claire Conway is wise, graceful, and honest. Her songs are dreamy, vivid portraits of her life backed by simple guitar riffs and layered harmonies. She’s a confessional poet in the same vein as Joni Mitchell or Cat Power, writing with unmatched intimacy and a style unmistakably her own. Her evolution as a songwriter is evident in her 2019 EP Missing. Sonically more diverse and lyrically more authentic, Missing is a cathartic reflection on the birth and death of a relationship and a first taste of life away from home. �Now living in Seattle, Conway describes her own songwriting as "a necessary form of expression... I'll find that I've been carrying certain feelings around for a long time, and once I'm finally able to write them out through a song, one that accurately reflects my internal experience, I feel physically lighter. That cycle is what keeps me going as an artist.”
Her latest project, a 5-song EP titled Be Good, is set to be released October 2021."

ARRAN FAGAN: www.arranfagan.com/
"A product of the grassroots music movement of Southern Oregon, Arran has spent the greater part of his life pursuing music, creating wistful and evocative songs that explore themes beyond his age - love, loss, divorce, and the endless passage of time.
Often compared to artists like Joan Shelly, Josh Ritter, and Nathaniel Rateliff, Arran Fagan has been working his way into the northwest folk scene for some time, getting his start playing countless coffee shops and house shows for college classmates and eventually opening for northwest favorites like Leif Vollebekk, HorseFeathers, Kris Orlowski, and Jeffrey Martin. Praised for his introspective lyrics and vivid storytelling, Arran has garnered a following in his native Oregon with his uncanny ability to weave the personal and universal."

Matthew Fowler: www.matthewfowlermusic.com/
"Florida-based artist Matthew Fowler is the perfect storm of all the essential singer-songwriter elements: a flawlessly raw yet organic voice, intricate melodies, compelling musicianship, and an overwhelmingly rich and rootsy sound… Fowler’s musicianship has been lauded by notable publications such as The Bluegrass Situation, CMT Edge, Acoustic Guitar Magazine, and Huffington Post.
Fowler's stage dynamic has formed into a capturing experience; he’s performed live on various NPR affiliates, has an Audiotree session under his belt, and has opened acts like Richard Thompson, Damien Jurado, The Weepies, Sea Wolf, Angel Olsen, and many more. Matthew’s fervor for performing live will see him back out on the road, where he’s transitioned into a national touring artist. He continues honing new tunes and has a new record slated for a 2021 release with Signature Sounds."
