About The Bow Tides:
Celtic ensemble The Bow Tides is led by three resplendent Irish fiddlers: Ellery Klein, Jessie Burns and the renowned Irish dancer, Katie Grennan. These dynamic women, with a combined 16 years of experience on the road with Irish American supergroup Gaelic Storm, bring with them a wealth of stage and studio expertise. Eric Thorin, a twice Grammy-nominated bassist, and Jeff Lindblade, a gifted guitarist, provide the rhythmic foundation and rousing song stylings.
Formed in 2020, the group quickly gained recognition, receiving rave reviews for their virtual festival appearances commissioned by the Spanish Peaks Irish Festival and the Pittsburgh Irish Festival. A year later they met in person for the first time on the main stage at the Pittsburgh Irish Festival, debuting their stunning original compositions, rich harmonies, and driving traditional tunes and songs specifically orchestrated for their triple-fiddle, guitar, and double bass lineup.
In 2023, the Bow Tides released their debut album, “Sailing On,” a trove of gorgeous original compositions and carefully orchestrated traditional tunes from Ireland, Scotland, and Galicia. The album has been critically acclaimed by artists such as Liz Carroll and has propelled the group on a thrilling journey, headlining festivals across the United States, including the prestigious Milwaukee and Kansas City Irish Festivals.
About Alexa Wildish:
Colorado singer-songwriter Alexa Wildish grew up in a musical family in the horse country of Southern California, where her father collected vintage guitars and she studied classical voice from age seven. She spent her school years in musical theatre, but at age 17, an entirely different musical spark was ignited when she saw The Wailin’ Jennys open for Nickel Creek, and she took the hard-left turn from musical theatre to Americana. She had been on her way to Broadway, but the lure of performing original material was strong; she threw herself into songwriting, learned guitar and octave mandolin, and never looked back.

Alexa released her self-titled debut EP in 2020, staking her claim as one of Americana’s most compelling new voices and making it easy to see why she took home first place at Planet Bluegrass’s emerging singer-songwriter competition in 2019. With a pristine voice likened to Alison Krauss and Eva Cassidy, her lyric “I'll be your refuge, a place you can go,” aptly describes the rich and mystical soundscapes she so deftly inhabits on her freshman effort.

Alexa’s latest EP After Love comes after her celebrated run as a contestant on NBC’s The Voice in 2023 and is the singer-songwriter’s ambitious submission to the cover record canon. Building upon the modern folk sound of her first EP, After Love is both lush and disciplined, poetic and technically brilliant--an ode to the art of crafting a cover song with staying power.
