Matt Emmer is a singer-songwriter based in Western Massachusetts whose music bridges the many avenues of American folk music with contemporary sounds. Drawing from the deep well of traditional song as well as the raw honesty of indie rock and improvisation, Matt creates music that is both rooted and exploratory. They have performed at venues including Club Passim, Tarrytown Music Hall, and the Clearwater Festival, and have shared stages with iconic artists like Pete Seeger, Bernice Johnson Reagon, Jackson Browne, Janis Ian, Suzanne Vega, and Arlo Guthrie. Matt’s music is rooted in tradition and guided by a spirit of openness, inviting audiences into a shared community with each song.
Tobey Sol LaRoche has been immersed in a culture of music and community since the moment he entered this world. His original music comes from the heart. It is informed by numerous genres and, while folky in nature, transcends labels and is uniquely his own. His songs embrace the syncopation and unconventional rhythmic elements inspired by his background in percussion with numerous projects, while weaving elaborate melodies that soar between tastefully finger-plucked or strummed guitar motifs. Tobey’s music attempts to explore the complexities of love and loss, while breathing hope into every tale he tells. He is a lover of life and humanity, and believes deeply that music serves to guide us all in our collective search for meaning and purpose. He writes with the wisdom that every lesson learned deserves to be shared, as we are all on this journey together.
