About Antje Duvekot:

“Her songs feel at once fresh faced and firmly rooted, driven by the whispery sensuality of her voice.”
-The Boston Globe

“She creates an entire, detailed world in verse, and takes you there with beautiful and understated melody.”
-Neil Dorfsman, Producer

Antje Duvekot has spent years crisscrossing the U.S. and Europe, building a reputation as a compelling live performer and songwriter. She has appeared at major festivals including the Newport Folk Festival, Mountain Stage, Philadelphia Folk Festival and Kerrville Folk Festival. Internationally, Antje has headlined Scotland’s Celtic Connections Festival and Denmark’s Tønder Festival. Along the way, she has earned some of the folk world’s top honors, including the Grand Prize in the John Lennon Songwriting Competition, Kerrville’s “Best New Folk Award” and the Boston Music Award for “Outstanding Folk Act.”

Antje’s fifth studio album, New Wild West, marks a turning point in both her songwriting and personal journey. The collection explores midlife, healing and resilience, confronting themes of trauma with a sharper sense of defiance and clarity. “My older songs sought to disarm trauma by acknowledging its destabilizing nature,” Antje explains. “The newer songs have the teeth and tenacity to openly confront and defy trauma.”

Throughout New Wild West, Antje’s songwriting carries a protective fierceness alongside the poetic lyricism that has long defined her work. Songs like “Girl on a Wire” and “Evolution” reflect perseverance, self-discovery and the long process of finding one’s voice. “I crawled into music as a protective vessel when I was a teenager,” Antje says. “It lent me safety and allowed me to stay open and let in more continuous sunlight than I could have otherwise.”

The album was created in collaboration with New England songwriter Mark Erelli after the two toured together and began developing the project. Over the course of a year, Antje recorded most of the vocals from home while Erelli handled much of the instrumentation and production in his basement studio. The album also features contributions from Seth Glier, Robby Hecht, Winnie Horan, John Gorka, Richard Shindell and Kenny White, with tracks later mixed and mastered in Woodstock.

Songs across New Wild West explore authenticity, courage and transformation. The title track reflects on privilege and social change while “Open Waters” embraces vulnerability and bravery. “Girl on a Wire” revisits imagery from Antje’s earlier work with renewed confidence and strength while “Evolution” celebrates growth and the long arc of human resilience.

Elsewhere, “Dylan Thomas (1996-1998)” was inspired by a child’s gravestone Antje encountered while on tour, becoming a meditation on grief, gratitude and self-acceptance. Other tracks include “Anwesenheit,” commissioned by the Goethe Institute for Earth Day, “Lottery Ticket,” written for a podcast assignment and the intimate “Traces,” which reflects on connection during the isolation of Covid-era dating.

With New Wild West, Antje continues to deepen her songwriting while embracing a broader sense of self and purpose. The result is a collection that feels both deeply personal and universally resonant.

About Seth Glier:

Seth Glier is a Grammy-nominated songwriter, producer and multi-instrumentalist from Western Massachusetts whose work often explores connection, healing and the natural world. An avid mushroom forager and thoughtful observer of the environment, Seth channels themes of ecology, restoration and human relationship into deeply personal songwriting.

His recent album, Everything, is a collection of songs imagining a future in which humanity and the planet are brought back into balance. Inspired by the quiet languages of the natural world, from tree rings and erosion to fungi and forests, the album carries a sense of practical optimism rooted in climate solutions and collective responsibility.

Songs across Everything approach environmental themes through vivid storytelling and inventive perspectives. “Rise” opens the album with an anthem about rewilding and renewal while “Finally Home” celebrates regenerative farming through buoyant vocal harmonies. “Mammoth” considers evolution and extinction from the imagined perspective of a woolly mammoth brought back from frozen DNA. Guest appearances from Crys Matthews, Hayley Reardon and Windborne add depth throughout the record, from stark choral arrangements to meditations on healing and memory.

The album’s title track grew out of a moment Seth experienced while foraging mushrooms. Recalling the scent of a chanterelle mushroom, he described the feeling as reconnecting to an ancient knowledge already held somewhere deep within himself. That sense of reconnection runs throughout Everything, which asks what becomes possible when people rediscover their relationship to the living world around them.

Beyond his solo work, Seth has collaborated widely as a producer, music director and studio musician. He has worked with artists including Ronnie Spector, James Taylor, Ani DiFranco, Glen Campbell, Cyndi Lauper, Tom Rush, Antje Duvekot and Richard Shindell among many others. Seth has also served as a cultural diplomat through the U.S. State Department, collaborating with musicians in Ukraine, Mongolia, China and Mexico.

A five-time Independent Music Award winner, Seth received a Grammy nomination for his album The Next Right Thing. His work frequently extends beyond the stage through projects centered on advocacy and community, including songwriting collaborations with students from Parkland, Florida and soldiers at Walter Reed. Seth is also an advocate for autism awareness and often cites his brother Jamie as one of his deepest influences.
