Miwi La Lupa (https://www.miwilalupa.com/)
Producer, singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist Miwi La Lupa (Miwi The Wolf) has been hunting songs and musical pack members since the age of 17 in Buffalo NY. Pulling influence from traditional and contemporary folk music, black American music, classic country, and indie rock, Miwi has kept the meanings of many of his songs a mystery.
On his hunt, he has collaborated on stage and in the studio, including Bright Eyes, Bill Frisell, Lou Reed, Gillian Welch, John Prine, Spoon, Red Baraat, Fela! The Broadway Show, and David Byrne. Residing in Omaha, Nebraska, between extended stays in NYC, he became a regular at ARC studios. Here, he actively contributed to projects overseen by Mike Mogis, including Miwi's second record ‘Ended Up Making Love’, and 4th record ‘Tips’, produced by Conor Oberst. Miwi has also toured extensively in the US, Europe, Australia and New Zealand, supporting artists such as Conor Oberst and Phoebe Bridgers, Joanna Sternberg, The Felice Brothers, and The Good Life.
Set to release his fifth album under his name, the hunt continues... from house shows in Pittsburgh to the Sydney Opera House, Miwi's howl calls out for all to hear. Listen for the story of The Wolf...
James Hatem (https://www.jameshatem.com/)
James Hatem, a New Jersey-born singer/songwriter now rooted in Nashville, has made his
mark across the Northeast, Midwest, Southeast, and Northwest with over 150 self-booked
shows. Influenced by musical legends including John Mayer, The Beatles, Jimi Hendrix, and
The Band, James crafts songs that guide listeners on a personal journey of self-discovery.
His music is a unique blend of unfiltered songwriting and blues-rock, capturing the genuine
essence of his musical identity.
In 2021, Hatem broke a Guinness World Record by playing 80 venues in 24 hours,
adding to his list of achievements, which includes nationwide tours and features in
publications like Guitar World Magazine and Nashville Scene. He has shared stages with
icons such as The Rolling Stones, Dolly Parton, Kansas, and Ricky Skaggs, Kansas, Pete
Seegar, Maggie Rose, Jared James Nichols, Celisse, Bronze Radio Return, Nikki Lane, and
Striking Matches, among others.
James also held a successful residency at Nashville’s Acme Feed and Seed and hit the road
with Miwi La Lupa from Bright Eyes in 2023. This year, James Hatem remains dedicated to
creating and sharing his music, with more releases and tours on the horizon.
