Multi-instrumentalist Lindsay Dodd's music is a blend of dreamy folk/pop with infectious melodies and heartfelt lyrics. Her songs echo inspirations of Joni Michell and Emmylou Harris while establishing a unique sound all her own. Her first album Summer of My Winter was released in 2016.

Armed with a quirky sense of humor and "dazzling guitar work" (Boston Globe), Raymond Gonzalez combines Classical, Jazz, Celtic, Renaissance, Blues and Latin influences into his songs and solo guitar compositions. His topics range from the ethereal to, well, songs about pigs and mermen and most things in between. "One of America's finest guitarists and composers" - Dave Palmater, WUMB Radio
