His songs tell the story of contemporary America through the people he’s met, places he’s been and predicaments he’s found himself in – both in his own backyard and in his travels. His easygoing manner invites people to step out of their own boxes, open their hearts, engage their imaginations, and get involved. With a simple Martin D-35 guitar, banjo, harmonica, his own voice and the voices of the audience, Spook presents good honest acoustic songs that are true to the spirit, passion and purpose of American folk music. He has toured throughout North America and has five full length CDs to his credit. Hudson Valley Folk Guild

His music, like the man himself, is literate, passionate, highly sensitive, and deeply purposeful. Cinematic in detail, "his songs give expression to the unspoken vocabulary of the heart" (Kitchener Waterloo Record). An optimist at heart, Garnet sings extraordinary songs about people who are not obvious heroes and of the small victories of the everyday. As memorable as his songs, his over-the-top humor and lightning-quick wit moves his audience from tears to laughter and back again. For tickets and more information

Their powerful rhythms and sensual melodies became the foundation of Robbie’s emerging style, which would take him through several ensembles in the city and eventually to Woodstock, where he garnered national acclaim with his songs"Steal Away", "Hot Rod Hearts", "Brooklyn Girls", and "When You're Down." Robbie released his debut album in 1978, earning two Top Ten singles and a Grammy nomination for Best New Artist, and has continued to record and perform through "Anthology Live 1998-2014" in 2015.

	Portland-based singer-songwriter Chris Pureka's body of work has resonated deeply with seemingly disparate milieus. Her bold vulnerability in processing the intimacies of her life in song has long appealed to listeners who crave authenticity. She’s shared the stage with artists such as Dar Williams, The Lumineers, The Cowboy Junkies, Gregory Alan Isakov, Martin Sexton, and Ani DiFranco. The Harmaleighs (pronunciation: the har-muh- lees) honestly craft poetic, passionate, and powerful songs cut from a pastiche of indie, folk, pop and Americana. In 2015, the band - Haley Grant [lead vocals, guitar] and Kaylee Jasperson [bass, harmonies]—embarked on a modern odyssey in support of their independent full-length debut, "Pretty Picture, Dirty Brush". The band-mates and partners hit the road with their 8-month-old pug Gus sleeping on the dashboard for the next nine months. The trials, tribulations, and triumphs of this trek would ultimately inspire their upcoming EP, "Hiraeth".
