About Dana Maragos:

Earliest influences include her mother’s exquisite soprano voice, and her grandmother buying her a $25 guitar in Chicago's Old Town when she was 6 years old, harmonizing with her sister, memorizing long, lyrical passages of the songs of Bob Dylan, Joan Baez, and Eric Andersen.

In 2017, Dana released EP, Dana; the album October in 2020 and an EP, Tastes Like Fire in 2021.

“Dana Maragos is a superb songwriter with an excellent turn of phrase … wrapped in metaphor and allegory…pure Americana … superbly produced given crystal clear sound which showcases Maragos’ voice … a pleasure to listen to.” - Americana UK - Allen Fitter

A south Chicago-native, singer-songwriter, Dana lives on the city’s north side and plays gigs in the city and suburbs. Sunday church choir is a part of her regular practice as is the local open mic scene. Dana is currently working on a new collection, Unimaginable Things, due out this year.

About Brian Wilkie:

Brian Wilkie, producer, arranger, highly sought-after pedal steel master and skilled multi-instrumentalist, adds rich textures on pedal steel and acoustic guitars. Brian hails from Central Illinois and is a member of Chicago’s best country band, The Hoyle Brothers, and has toured with Allison Krauss, Pam Tillis and Lorrie Morgan.
