ABOUT CHRISTENA: Christena Graves writes songs in order to make sense of her world. Her lyrics are a mixture of a heartfelt acknowledgment of the pain and suffering in life, balanced by the steadying force of committed relationships. Growing up in a coastal area of Western Michigan, Christena draws from her deep connection with the natural world to help frame the difficulty of the human emotional landscape. She found her musical beginning learning to sing harmonies with her older brothers and sisters. Her 2021 album, "Finding My Footing," marks her triumphant return to the music industry after years away.

ABOUT KELLY: Kelly Hunt paints stories as old and offbeat as her Depression-era tenor banjo, reimagining traditions of folk, blues & old-time music in a timeless style that hovers beyond the constraints of genre à la Anaïs Mitchell & Gillian Welch. Hunt’s debut album, EVEN THE SPARROW, was released in May 2019 and named as a finalist for the International Folk Music Awards “Album of the Year.” Her sophomore album, OZARK SYMPHONY, was recorded with Grammy-winning musician & producer Dirk Powell and released on Compass Records in October 2023. Kelly has toured nationally and internationally since 2018 and has opened for the likes of Josh Ritter, Pokey LaFarge, Sarah Harmer, John McCutheon, and The Gibson Brothers.

ABOUT SARA: With Sara Swenson and her songs, you will find yourself in the company of a good friend - one who brings us in and reminds us of our shared humanity. Known for her gentle nature and her beautifully haunting voice, she uses her stripped down live sets to protect the space where her voice and lyrics stir our souls.
