A bit Andy Kaufman and a hint of Father John Misty, Dale Hollow possesses a fascinating combination of performance and purveyed authenticity.

Emily Frembgen released her first proper studio album with producer Hugh Pool (Taj Mahal, Debbie Harry, Michael Pitt) at Excello Studio in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, in 2021. Irreverently titled It’s Me or the Dog, it was received warmly by critics and radio alike, with New York Music Daily naming it “one of the best records of 2021” and Glide Magazine calling it “a strong study in writing both melodies and powerful lyrics.” In many ways, it looked like her career was just beginning, but it took a long time to get to the beginning.

Queer American singer-songwriter and producer Becky Krill has concocted a sound all her own, delivering soulful vocals over warm, nostalgic and inspired instrumentals. Her approach to songwriting? Classic and unquestionably folk. Inspired by a wide-range of influences including Ani Difranco, The Rolling Stones, Brandi Carlile and The Temptations, Becky released her self-produced debut album Little Girl in 2021 and is gearing up for her next release later this year.
