Originally born in Germany and transplanted to the US as a young teen, Antje Duvekot began to hone her observational skills through a lens of biculturalism when she picked up a guitar during that move. Some years later, the confessional folk of Dar Williams and Ani DiFranco gave her license to share her observations, no matter how personal. Since her first emerging original songs, she has never let go of that tenet of vulnerability.

“Duvekot has gotten hotter, faster than any local songwriter in recent memory. Her songs feel at once fresh faced and firmly rooted, driven by the whispery sensuality of her voice. She believes in the redemptive power of the shared secret; and is utterly unafraid to mine the darkest corners of her life for songs that turn fear into resilience and isolation into community.” The Boston Globe

Antje’s five studio albums, including her latest, New Wild West, were produced by Mark Erelli, Seamus Egan of SOLAS, Richard Shindell, and Scott Petito, respectively, and feature support from Anais Mitchell, John Gorka, Lucy Kaplansky, Sean Mullins, Liz Longley, Mark Erelli, and Kris Delmhorst, among others.

David Berkeley’s gift as a songwriter and storyteller is that he sees the tragedy and comedy in life, writing songs capable of both breaking and healing the heart. Berkeley has been called a “musical poet,” by the San Francisco Chronicle, and the New York Times praises his “lustrous, melancholy voice with shades of Tim Buckley and Nick Drake.”  He was a guest on This American Life, and he has won many songwriting awards and honors including ASCAPs Johnny Mercer Songwriting Award. His latest album, A Pail Full of Fire, is a masterclass on songwriting and singing. begging you to lean in and listen close, as each song speaks to what matters in this life. Berkeley’s latest single, “Oh My America,” appeals to what is best in us and our country. It is a new kind of protest song, seeking to unite rather than divide.

Berkeley has released nine studio albums, one live album, and authored two books, each of which pairs with one of his albums. He is also half of the transatlantic, theatrical folk duo, Sons of Town Hall. He lives in Santa Fe, New Mexico.
