Harmonious Songwriters’ Showcase: Whitney Mann, Andy Moore, JT Spartz

Whitney Mann is a seasoned singer-songwriter whose key goal is to make people feel during her shows; to peer into the depth of their human experience and examine the view. But she also wants people to laugh, to howl at the absurdity of life. And, with her trusted Larrivée acoustic guitar strapped to her chest, she threads that needle with ease. "With the release of Electric Heart, Mann has made a triumphant return to the music scene" -Americana UK
Andy Moore has been making music and writing about music in Madison for nearly 40 years. His most recent projects include Andy Moore & the Misfit Toys, an annual holiday special where he performs 12 original seasonal songs. His world music ensemble, Disaster Passport, performs their own score to a live screening of the 1983 art film Koyaanisqatsi. Moore was also an original and long-time member of Madison's premier bluegrass outfit, The Cork n' Bottle String Band.
James Travis (JT) Spartz hosts the Harmonious series, acting as organizer and co-performer. His songwriting work with Roots-Rock / Americana band Dogtown Hollow includes two recent EPs, nominations for American Artist of the Year in 2024 and 2025 with the Midwest Country Music Organization, and winner of a Madison Area Music Award for Country Performer of the Year in 2026.
