Join us for another in our showcase series where we highlight up and coming voices in the Shenandoah Valley music scene! Celia Cooley, Gillian McClain, and Mattie Keller are all solo acoustic performers and songwriters, as well as regulars at our weekly open mic, and each has enough talent in their little finger to fill an entire room! We are so excited to give them a platform to share their unique voices.About the performers:
Celia Cooley started playing experimental music with her dad at a young age, participating in musical festivals at George Mason University where they performed improvised setlists. Celia progressed to writing and performing her own songs at local open mics with her Dad. Although she has experience playing with bands, currently playing with July the Band as the drummer, this is her first solo performance. Celia is incredibly grateful to Shenan and The Catamount for inviting her to perform.
Gillian McClain is an indie/folk singer-songwriter local to the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia. Her style inspirations draw from artists such as Noah Kahan, Lizzy McAlpine, Clover County, and Caamp. Her songwriting consists of raw, honest lyrics which reflect her own personal experiences with love and heartbreak.
Mattie Keller is a modern and classic folk guitarist/songwriter, born and raised in Virginia and the Shenandoah Valley. She blends inspiration from modern folk artists like Haley Heynderickx and Adrianne Lenker with classic folk legends like Tia Blake, Donovan, Shirley Collins, and Vashti Bunyan. Songwriting curated uniquely from a rich inner world—all things whimsical and woodsy, deep and melancholic.
