Ira Wolf
-from Nashville, TN
-Hailing from the mountains of Montana, and making a home in Nashville, TN, Ira Wolf's music and writing is vulnerable, honest, and "delightfully subtle."  With three studio albums to share, Ira has performed on stages across the US, the UK, Scandinavia, Australia, New Zealand, and Southeast Asia since she began touring in 2014. She draws from personal experience, and connects on an intimate level with her audience through her honest lyrics and melancholy vocals. With roots in folk, americana and bluegrass genres, Ira has found a unique sound that resonates with an eclectic listening crowd.

A former Berklee College of Music student, Ira has been recognized for her lyrical content and vocal capabilities in numerous festivals and songwriting contests including Rocky Mountain Folks Festival Songwriter Showcase, Great American Song Contest, and International Songwriting Competition, among many others. She was also named one of Spotify's 'Best of Folk/Americana 2016' and 'Fresh Folk, Best of 2017' artists.

Along with her musical talent, Ira has received recognition for her fearless dedication to a full-time touring schedule as a soloist. As she has continued living on the road, her music and lifestyle have been featured in blogs such as She-Explores 'Women on the Road', as well as Sonicbids 'Success Stories'.

Although Ira continues to make Nashville her home-base, she maintains a life on the road when she's not recording. She released her highly anticipated third album 'The Closest Thing To Home', in 2017 and spent the majority of 2018 touring the U.S.

Ira has no plans to slow down anytime soon and continues writing and performing both inside the states and overseas. She recently partnered with GoWesty for the second time and moved back into her beloved 1988 VW Vanagon (Ruby) full-time to continue traveling and touring.




EllaHarp
-from San Francisco, CA
-SF based singer/songwriter EllaHarp is a curious sort of artist. After years honing her skills touring, recording, and releasing music on a unique harp she designed for the purpose, 2020 saw the addition of another self designed/built instrument that got swiftly put to work; a small, 5 string banjo which fits just inside said harp’s case, which in turn fits neatly in an airplane overhead. A bit like musical Russian dolls…

Her 2021 sophomore album ‘Screaming Into the Void’ showcases both instruments in signature style, blending folk and Americana with pop sensibilities, highlighting dark, thoughtful lyrics and memorable hooks. The independently released album spinned on 85+ radio stations nationally and abroad, and saw multiple chart appearances on the NACC Top 30 Folk, the AMA top 200 and the FAI Top Albums in both Oct and Nov 2021.

Entering the scene with her 2018 debut album, ‘Who Asked You Back’ (hitting #4 and #2 on RMR Top 50 Folk and Top 50 Contemporary Folk Album charts), EllaHarp played 150+ shows in 7 states and a province (from opening for Grammy winning singer Mưa in San Diego to showcasing at Canadian Music Week in Toronto), bringing dynamic live performances that contrast dark songwriting with humor and a knack for creative storytelling.

Despite the pandemic’s blow to a promising start in 2020 (opening for Hollow Coves and Harrison Storm in SF’s Noise Pop Festival in Feb) EllaHarp built over 35K followers on Instagram, 20K on Facebook, and well over 2 million streams since COVID. She performed in Seattle Hempfest 2020 and her track ‘Time’ can be heard on popular Netflix show ‘Emily in Paris’.



Michael Martinez
-from San Francisco, CA
-I'm Michael Martinez. I'm a Bay Area born, raised and based singer-songwriter, pianist, actor and performer. I make music to process emotions, to feel them more deeply, and to share and exchange that energy through performance. I just want to connect with others. Hopefully make some friends along the way. I hope that if you enjoy me and my music that you'll continue to connect and come along with me for the ride.
