John Lensing started out as a street performer, writing songs and driving around the US to play them for people. Slowly, this led to playing shows and festivals, but the goal has always been the same. To make people care — about others, themselves, and things that sometimes hurt to care about.
His genre-blurring songwriting has brought him on tours all across North America and Europe. Most notably playing a showcase at the Sommer in Altona festival (Hamburg), and being named "an artist to watch" by No Depression. - Listen Here
Raised on country radio in her hometown of Charleston, South Carolina, Claire Conway was drawn to storytelling from an early age. She wrote her first song at ten years old, and soon became eager to grow as an artist in any way she could: painting, writing poems, playing guitar. Claire's latest EP, "Be Good," is both a product of the pandemic and a deeply personal project years in the making. Recorded in a Los Angeles apartment while quarantined, it echoes all-too-familiar themes of isolation and self-discovery, divulging the details with unmatched intimacy. "Amsterdam" is a nod to the narrative at the heart of her last EP, while singles "Be Good" and "I Don't Wanna Be Alone" read more like diary entries, chronicling a story of a young woman discovering herself, the way she relates to others, and her place in the middle of it all. - Listen Here
-Meiwei is indie-folk singer songwriter Michelle Meiwei Mouw. Meiwei’s debut release, “Unusual Spring” was recorded and released from her college apartment in May of 2020. The song was featured on Sound of Boston’s Local Mix and WGHB’s Mass Mix. Since then, Meiwei has moved out West and gone on to release her first LP, “On This Trail Till I’m Home”. - Listen Here
