Lyrically rich, harmony-driven songs have made them Kerrville New Folk Finalists and Falcon Ridge Emerging Artists. They’re also winners of the South Florida Folk Festival songwriter competition and have performed as official showcase artists at Regional Folk Alliance Conferences. He’s originally from Berkeley CA, she came from Woodstock NY… they used to have careers their parents could brag about.
