Erika Lundahl: erikalundahl.com

"Erika Lundahl is a heart-forward songwriter for resilient hearts and resonant bodies. Based on Coast Salish land in Seattle, Erika’s folk medicine roots in personal and collective histories of resilience, dancing between shadow and light to seek futures of abundance, possibility and healing. Her newest album “Messy, Blessed Infinity” is an exuberant love letter to the world, wrapped in notes that bend from energized folk rock to hushed spoken word poetry. Refracting like light through glass, the album celebrates Pacific Northwest resistance movements like the Fairy Creek Blockade and efforts to breach the Snake River dams, and then heads inward to embrace the soft animal body within, exploring the self with songs of grief, reckonings with intimacy, heartbreak, and self care.
The album is musically supported by a feast of talented local artists, including Andi Sher (Her Mountain Majesty), Aaron Lindstrom (Lindstrom and the Limit), Elena Loper, Bex Lipps, Ryan Manthey, Dan Sodomka, Mara Rafferty, Kaeley Pruitt-Hamm, and more. This is her second full-length studio album. She is an artist on Patreon at www.patreon.com/erikalundahl.
Originally from the Willamette Valley of Oregon on Kalapuya land, Erika began to perform in earnest in upstate New York in 2012. She returned to the tall trees and rugged wilderness of the Pacific Northwest in late 2013. She is an environmental justice organizer, who is committed to low-carbon touring in her electric vehicle. Record Crates United reviewed Erika’s 2020 album "Daughter, You're a Storyteller," saying: "..a stellar collection of deeply personal ballads and tributes to the heart. With songs that are inspired by the unlocking of the stories within our genetics, and seeking to explore our pasts to better understand our present adult minds and bodies." - Artist Bio

Jessie Thoreson (solo): www.jessiethoreson.com

"Jessie Thoreson & The Crown Fire is a folk-rock band whose propulsive melodic energy is grounded by upright bass and drums and buoyed by soaring fiddle and vocal harmonies. Inspired by songwriters such as Joni Mitchell, Madison Cunningham, and John Prine, The Crown Fire’s songs speak to the musical inspiration that comes from being surrounded by, and in relationship with, wild places." - Artist Bio
