Abbey Arts presents: Stepwise, Elliott Green, and Peter DonovanSTEPWISE: stepwiseband.com
" Stepwise is a high-energy Celtic Folk duo featuring the swift rhythmic guitar playing of DADGAD-specialist Liam Lewis and smooth ornamented fiddling of Olivia Breidenthal. The Los Angeles natives have built a following playing festivals, concerts, and contradances all over the country. They have performed on the stage of Davis Hall in Fairbanks Alaska, the Glenlo Abbey in Ireland, the Lodge Room in Los Angeles, and the Costa Mesa Scottish Fest and Highland Games to name a few. For this tour, the duo has prepared their own arrangements of traditional folk songs and fiddle tunes, as well as many original songs and tunes written in the Irish and/or American folk tradition. This tour will be a celebration of the old songs of tradition and an exploration of the new. " -Artist Bio

PETER DONOVAN: www.peterdonovanmusic.com
" Peter Donovan is an astute musical storyteller. His perceptive songs span genres and feature narratives based on both real-life and fictitious characters, written with a contemplative heart. After finding success and a dedicated fanbase with Seattle’s All The Real Girls and his side project The Rose Petals (alongside Elijah Ocean), Donovan returns in 2022 with his first proper solo album, This Better Be Good His previous releases spun expertly-crafted character sketches that earned plaudits from Paste Magazine, Consequence of Sound, American Songwriter, and more. With This Better Be Good , Donovan spreads his wings, combining the plaintive soul of indie rock, the heartfelt sincerity of Americana, and the stirring studio pageantry of ‘70s singer-songwriters, drawing them together to explore more intimate depths This Better Be Good is Donovan’s most personal effort yet; a loose concept record about the ups and downs of an ultimately doomed romance between two people. The songs are more reflective than bitter; more nostalgic than sad. It’s an album about learning and growing from lived experiences and reflecting on past failures in the interest of future successes. Donovan has managed to create an album that is sonically nostalgic and modern at once, both soul-stirring and dripping with heartache. It’s a roadmap of his past seen through fresh eyes, and a triumphant first step in this new chapter. " -Artist Bio
