Max Bartos is a 22-year-old indie folk singer-songwriter whose music blends the storytelling soul of folk with the spirit of rock and punk. Originally from Lancaster, PA and now making his mark in NYC and upstate NY, Max brings an honest, heartfelt energy to every performance – part campfire confessional, part backroom rebellion.
His sound has been described as “if Mumford & Sons had a baby with Green Day” or “Dave Grohl gone folk,” but Max’s voice is unmistakably his own – raw, reflective, and ready to connect.
He began his career on stage, originating the role of Darren in the Broadway-bound production of SING STREET, which was unfortunately halted by the pandemic. Since then, Max has poured himself into songwriting, starting with Playlist of My Life (2020), followed by his debut album Such Is Life (2021), and his 2023 release Memento Mori, created in collaboration with 3x Grammy winner Alan Douches.
Now leaning fully into folk, Max recently released Diamond in the Rough and is preparing to unveil his new EP, Waiting at the Crossroads, in August 2025. With a guitar in hand and something real to say, Max Bartos invites you to lean in and listen.
Katie Elise made her debut as a solo artist in January of 2025 with the release of her song “Not Dead Yet” which can be found on all streaming platforms. Although new to solo songwriting, Katie’s musical roots run deep. Growing up immersed in diverse genres like big band, classic rock, folk, and bluegrass, Katie’s music reflects her eclectic tastes. Her songs often capture intimate moments of introspection, relationships, and nature. Her music has been years in the making since writing her very first song in 2021 titled “Lemon Grass and Love Songs”. While you can find familarty from her musical influences such as Brandi Carlie and Melanie, she credits the biggest influence on her picking style to be from her most personal influence, her mom. Katie loves collaborating with other musicians and challenging her musical abilities. She is looking forward to producing more songs and seeing where it all takes her!
Autumn House is a country-inflected alternative rock band based in Carrboro, NC drawing influence from such artists as Neil Young, Lucinda Williams, Jason Molina, and Wilco. Their songs, ranging from wistful ballads to full-throated rockers, deal broadly with the ephemeral and the uncertain. Autumn House is comprised of Paco Marvelli (lap steel guitar), Henry Pfeiffer (bass), Max Randall (guitar, vocals, writing), and Andy Seiglie (drums, backing vocals).
