Brightwell & Moran with David Gross

From the heart of the Pacific Northwest, Brightwell & Moran deliver a masterclass in Eclectic Acoustic folk-rock. Drawing comparisons to The Civil Wars and Birds of Chicago, this duo pairs Kelly Brightwell’s Americana sensibilities with Woody Moran’s folk-rock edge.

Winners of the 2022 Talent is Timeless Songwriting Contest, they recorded their winning track “Bare Boards” at Abbey Road Studios; their full EP Land of Plenty (Spring 2023) and the 2nd place International Acoustic Music Awards song “River Flow” (2025) showcase their soaring harmonies and timeless craft.
