Meghan Cary is an award-winning performing songwriter, and champion for the unifying power of music. With a smoky voice and masterful storytelling, Cary crafts songs that inspire connection and community, earning her Billboard Magazine’s Critic’s Choice Award and comparisons to Melissa Etheridge, Brandi Carlile, and even Bruce Springsteen. Her anthem “Sing Louder” has become a rallying cry for music lovers to raise their voices together in hope and joy.
A favorite on festival stages including the Philadelphia Folk Festival, Falcon Ridge, and Black Bear Americana, Cary has shared the stage with folk and Americana luminaries such as Christine Lavin and Sloan Wainwright, and supported Joan Osborne, Lucinda Williams, Chris Smither, and Little Feat among others. Her latest album, Sing Louder, debuted in the top 10 on the US/International Folk DJ Chart, with WFUV’s John Platt praising her songs as “inspiring us to reach our higher selves.”
Cary’s journey into music was born from grief — after losing her fiancé unexpectedly, she picked up his guitar, wrote her debut album, and sang her way back to hope. “I wrote my grief into song and sang my way out of the abyss. I keep making music to help others connect with their own stories and each other to find their joy.” Cary’s 2025 single “Raise Your Voice” – hailed as “a song of hope and unity” - has been doing just that.

Dina Hall is a songwriter, singer, guitarist, percussionist, and recording artist, rooted in Bethlehem, Pa. She blends folk, rock, blues, and alt-country into a dynamic amalgam of Americana music, featuring her resonant, familiar voice on each song. Hall has solidly established a decades-long career as a performing songwriter, honing her craft in intimate listening rooms and bringing that spark to large theater stages and music festivals in Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Delaware – sometimes with a full band behind her. Band members: Andy Killcoyne–guitar, Rameen Shayegan–mandolin, guitar and vocal, Nick Franclik–bass, Todd Schied–drums.
Hall’s songwriting and performance can be reminiscent of the enigmatic storytelling of Dylan and Springsteen, combined with the wildly feminist passion of Melissa Etheridge and Brandi Carlile, and the powerful whispers of Emmylou Harris and Tracy Chapman.
Dina Hall has appeared as support for many notable artists, including: KT Tunstall, Joan Osborne, Marcia Ball, Willy Porter, Jeffrey Gaines, Seth Glier, Danielia Cotton, Cheryl Wheeler, Karla Bonoff, Jimmy Webb, John Gorka, Catie Curtis, Richard Shindell, Susan Werner, The Wailin’ Jennys, and Chris Trapper.
“When I saw her in the Fowler Blast Furnace Room & Loft on the Steel Stacks campus opening for New Orleans legend Marcia Ball, she blew me away, and only had super-duper guitarist Andy Killcoyne with her. His succinct runs in-between her lines, his driving rhythms and leads were like having a whole band behind her. Vocally, she has a second gear to her voice.” – Mike Greenblatt, The Aquarian
“…a roaming Americana spirit, a raw rootsy rock strut, and an introspective folk storytelling quality.” – Tom Hilton, Aldora Britain Records
“So Good.” – Aubrey Plaza, American actress, comedian, and producer
