The Round: Jacob Baughman, Will Solomon, Anna May, David Hollenbach, Poet

Will Solomon is a contemporary-folk artist from Kentucky based in Seattle, Washington. His burgeoning career has taken him to #9 on the iTunes singer-songwriter chart and into the studio with a Grammy-winning team (Casey Warner & Jacquire King) to record his 2021 EP, Misspelled Words. He has toured the country opening for artists including Johnnyswim, Holly Williams, and Thad Cockrell. Will creates an emotive sound inspired by the folk songs of his hand-me-down records, pop hooks of an 80s childhood. and colorful chords from collegiate jazz studies in Appalachia. His lyricism reflects the formative years of his artistry spent playing writers' rounds in country music's Nashville, embellished by turn of phrase and poetic metaphor.

Alternative tragic Americana, invocations for peace & judgment reshaping with bleeding heart stream of consciousness poems. Anna's lyrical sensibility is steeped in wisdom, and layered with evocative musicality and metaphysical embroidery while eschewing the mainstream & parting with platitudes. Anna explores both estrangement and connection while taking cues from artists like Billie Holiday, Shawn Colvin, Neil Young, and Leonard Cohen. As a yogi, pianist, teacher & poet, she masterfully blends all of her influences into her songwriting.
