Asheville, NC-based roots artists Anya Hinkle (vocals, guitar) and Andrew Finn Magill(fiddle) team up for an intimate exploration of acoustic music, rooted in the sounds of Appalachia and seasoned by travels across the globe. Just back from tours in Japan, Denmark, Sweden, and all across the US this year, this powerful duo presents a surprisingly dynamic range of styles and influences.

She has recorded eight studio albums with former bands Dehlia Low (RebelRecords) and Tellico (Organic Records). Her 2021 solo release“Eden and Her Borderlands”(Organic Records) received critical acclaim from PopMatters, Folk Alley, Bluegrass Situation, and more; her current project, OCEANIA, produced by Kevin Moloney (U2, Sinead O’Conner), features Irish guitar legend John Doyle and slide guitar master Billy Cardine. The album is slated for release in spring 2024 on Red Parlor Records. More info athttps://anyahinkle.com/bio-epk. No Depression featured her latest single“Fortuna” in October 2023.
