Michigan favorites Chris DuPont and Kylee Phillips met over a decade ago during a radio appearance for Ann Arbor’s 107.1 and became instant fans of one another. In the summer of 2021, after countless path crossings, Chris and Kylee finally learned each other’s material and discovered an incredible vocal blend and stage synergy. Since then, the duo has performed at treasured venues like The Ark (Ann Arbor, MI) and Evanston Space (Chicago, IL), shared stages with artists like May Erlewine, Vienna Teng and Steve Poltz and appeared at many events around the midwest including the Ann Arbor Summer Festival (main stage 2024), Blissfest (2025) and Folk Alliance Regional Midwest (official showcase artist 2024).
Christopher Gold is a Kentucky-born songwriter living in Wisconsin. He has written and recorded folk songs, country songs, rock & roll songs, and everything in between citing a love for songwriters like Townes Van Zandt, Bob Dylan, Tom Petty, John Prine, and anybody else whose work begins with paper and pen. He travels primarily as a solo act, carrying on the folk tradition of performances that blend music, storytelling, and humor.
