Each session features two guest songwriters alongside Ashley, sharing original music and the stories behind the songs in an intimate, intentional format. These evenings are about presence, listening deeply, and cultivating creative community. The series takes place at Back Table in Greensboro, NC, a space that supports quiet attention and community gathering.

While only a relatively short time since the van-dwelling singer-songwriter Olive Klug has fully pursued the nontraditional life of a touring musician, their sophomore album Lost Dog finds them contemplating a propensity for adventure no matter what avenue of love and loss it leads down. Although still very young, Olive Klug artfully addresses “aging as a neurodivergent free spirit” on the road with an unarguably talented ability to fearlessly voice deeply honest emotions through captivating storytelling.

Dreemy is a singer-songwriter and bandleader from Greensboro, North Carolina. Coming up through the local jam scene, she honed her sound in community-driven spaces where improvisation and connection reign. Her sound blends blues, rock, folk, and indie into something soulful, gritty, and deeply alive.

What the Folk! host and curator, Ashley Virginia, is a North Carolina–based singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, producer, educator, and organizer whose work centers grassroots community building, radical listening spaces, and folk traditions as living culture.
