Armed with her father’s first guitar, a wry sense of humor and a startlingly cohesive and masterful tone to her writing, Elise Leavy writes and sings folk songs that sound like they came straight from Laurel Canyon in the 70's. Often likened to Joni Mitchell and Judee Sill, Elise says it must be the California seawater getting inside her head and heart from an early age. She has been writing songs since she was 8 years old. “I don’t really remember a time before I wrote songs and sang them for people- it’s just always been there…” Since graduating from the New England Conservatory of Music at the tender age of 19, she has taken to the road, having written over one hundred songs at age 27, and traveled the world singing them for the people. She was recently selected as a New Folk Finalist at the Kerrville New Folk Songwriting Competition, and for an official showcase at the Northeast Regional Folk Alliance in Albany, NY. Take note because this young artist has arrived as a songwriting force.

Mirabelle Skipworth is an alt-folk songwriter living in Pittsburgh, PA, who has been playing her songs out for the past decade. Traveling around with her folk-inspired melodies sprinkled with an alt-rock tinge, her songs aim to take the audience on an emotive, dynamic, and sensitive journey. She draws from her own experiences, books, and observations.
With music already out and about (such as singles: “The Deer Song” and “Scary Story”), she is currently on the brink of releasing a new album, When The Waters Part (Feb. 13th). The album attacks themes dealing with how religion often instills a complicated relationship with love and intimacy. Recorded entirely live, the album strips these messages and the emotions that are attached to them down to their core.
Mirabelle is a community builder who regularly hosts songwriter meet-ups and events in Pittsburgh, PA, while also continually expanding her touring network. For her, music is centered around community and the inspiration that continually flows from that. In the making of her newest album, she wanted the recording process to reflect that… recorded with her closest community and captured in its most natural form.
Tuck Ryan is a Lancaster, PA based artist whose sound is reminiscent of the classic soul and pop that defined the 70s, while also blending modern production sensibilities and the Americana songwriters of his childhood.
His first 2 EPs, Fade Away & Moving Towards The Light, are now available everywhere.
