Jessye DeSilva seamlessly blends theatrical pop elements with traditional folk and roots music to form her piano-driven alt-americana sound. She infuses hope into songs about religious alienation, mental health struggles, and societal injustice to create a uniquely queer and unholy ruckus. Jessye’s new album Glitter Up the Dark has been hailed as “… one of the great Boston alt-rock records of 2026” by the Boston Globe. The album was produced by Aaron Lee Tasjan and incorporates Eighties pop and Nineties alternative flourishes to the stately Americana and country-rock sounds of 2023’s Renovations and 2022 debut Landscapes, which earned her a nomination for Americana Artist of the Year at the 2022 Boston Music Awards. No Depression says “Comparisons to Elton John and Brandi Carlile are easy — DeSilva clearly takes a page from these idols, anchoring [her] songs in pop melody juggernauts, gauzy textures, and vocal bravado.” Nashville Scene named her a 2023 Artist To Watch, saying “DeSilva could inject new life into a genre that could definitely use a little more pretzel logic.”

Hazel Basil is a guitarist and vocalist based in Northampton, MA. Her music revolves around the strength she finds in community, introspection, and self-acceptance. Hazel discovered her love for the guitar in 2016, teaching herself fingerstyle folk tunes and classic rock licks. After realizing she was transgender in 2022, Hazel felt an immense surge of love for herself, her community, and music, and has been working to bring friends and strangers alike together over a mutual love of music ever since. Hazel has performed at venues across New England, including the Iron Horse, the Academy of Music, and Club Passim. She is also known locally for her work hosting monthly queer open mics at the Parlor Room in Northampton, MA. Hazel hopes that the self-acceptance and introspection she encourages through her work leads audiences to find more space for complexity, joy, and compassion. In the face of oppression, our joy is more important than ever.
