BEKAH BARNETT
Urban minstrel, and folk diva; Bekah has been making up songs since she was three years old. Lately she started actually adding piano to them and writing them down so she can remember them and play them for you. If you'd like.
LEA GRANT
Lea Grant’s piano-driven compositions are characterized by jazzy harmonic progressions, catchy melodies and above all, a gorgeous, crystal pure voice. Her songwriting & performance style synthesizes the pretty-cuteness of Regina Spektor with the musical depth & complexity of Joni Mitchell.
RACHEL EFRON
For Rachel, writing her first song was like opening a present. And as odd and misshapen as the little thing was, she was enchanted. She persevered, and wrote a dozen more songs, all with the same sense of awe and delight, and eventually even with some better results.

ANJU’S PALE BLUE EYES
Anju’s Pale Blue Eyes is a group that coalesced in San Francisco in early 2011. Based around the confessional singer/ songwriter stylings of Nick Anju, the group currently incorporates a classically trained cello backbone, postpunk and r n’b guitar playing, and the rhythmic pulse of Adirondack banjo. The songs are alternately orchestrated between disparate instruments or flowing into living, breathing jams of dynamic and melodic feeling.

GENNA & JESSE
Genna and Jesse are duo alchemy at its finest. Sweet and savory, raspy and smooth, together they create a unique vocal sound, and then they complement that blend with Jesse’s prowess at the piano and guitar. Whether they sing their own songs, or the well-chosen songs of their peers, audiences are along for the ride in an intimate and inclusive show.
ROGER ROCHA & THE GOLDENHEARTS
With an ear for the romantic and the dramatic, the Goldenhearts bring a unique flavor to a familiar genre. The band alternates between electric and acoustic live performances, and they frequently feature a string quartet. Roger Rocha, (guitar, vocals) had a vision of a live band that would embody the angst and ecstasy of relationships.

JOSHUA LOWE & THE JUNCOS
Growing up listening to his dad’s enormous and eclectic record collection, Joshua immersed himself in the sounds of doo wop, big band, folk and old-timey music. With a deep appreciation for roots traditions as well as a fascination for the history and culture that created such unique and varied styles of music, Joshua’s approach to song writing is steeped in the history and legacy of American music and yet reflects the experience of our modern times. In other words, Postmodern American Roots Music.

HANG JONES
The best Americana songs all have one thing in common: someone has to get shot. Singer/songwriter Stephen Grillos took this to heart when writing the songs for Hang Jones’ debut album The Ballad of Carlsbad County. What began as a collection of bluegrass inspired country-rock songs evolved into a Western Outlaw-themed story album complete with hangings, gunfights, love, sex, and revenge.
LINDSAY GARFIELD
The new musical adventure of Lindsay Paige Garfield, formerly of the San Francisco indie-folk band "Or, the Whale".
Friday May 24th
EMILY JANE WHITE
There’s a rare confidence to Emily Jane White’s songwriting: it’s at once generous and tough-minded, reflective and unsentimental. Her work shares some elements with folk music, but the term does not do justice to her ambitious songwriting and robust arrangements. White possesses a singular voice inspired by the raveled threads of the uncanny in American culture, including depression-era blues and classic works of gothic literature such as Toni Morrison’s Beloved and Charlotte Perkins Gilman’s The Yellow Wallpaper.

ELIZA RICKMAN
There is always a hint of menace and reservoirs of force haunting the corners of Eliza Rickman’s voice, whatever register it occupies. Her presence on stage—whether she wears flowers in her hair, or stuffed birds; whether she plays a toy piano or a grand piano—is an enveloping, soft darkness, impossible to ignore.

Thursday May 30th
RABBIT QUINN
San Francisco-based pianist, vocalist and songwriter Rabbit Quinn crafts otherworldly fables reminiscent of unconventional piano rock storytellers such as Kate Bush, Nina Simone, Tom Waits and Tori Amos. History, myth and literature help Quinn transform her footprints into compositions which are delicate, dark and romantic.

EMILY PALEN: KNIGHTRESS M1
