Cataldo, K Van Petten @ BALLARD HOMESTEAD

Cataldo: cataldomusic.com

"Cataldo has been hailed as “the rare kind of artist who’s able to absorb the chaotic world around him and distill it into crystalline song…with an eye for telling detail and an ear for unusual sonic textures” by American Songwriter. Their release, “Keepers” has been welcomed as “nostalgic, and effortlessly, poetically profound,” by Nylon and “wistful and hopeful and beautiful, a brightly emotive yet understated slow-build that splits the difference between Anderson associate Ben Gibbard’s pensive indie rock stylings and rhythmically complex pop worthy of an ’80s teen movie’s closing credits” by Stereogum. KEXP calls Cataldo's 6th release, "Literally Main Street," “a perfect example of master songwriting.” - Artist Bio from Website

K Van Petten: kvanpetten.com

"K Van Petten is a musician and poet floating between mediums — poetry, music, and beyond. Their work blends sounds and words, most notably in ‘For Someone’, a cassette of audio poetry and ambient music transmitted via residency at Centrum in Port Townsend and released by label Hello America Stereo Cassette. They’re currently seeding a new project, False Hemlock." - Artist Bio from Website
