JONATHAN BYRD is "one of the top 50 songwriters of the last 50 years," says Rich Warren of WFMT in the Chicago Tribune. Scott Alarik of the Boston Globe says, "This rootsy North Carolinian may be the most buzzed-about new songwriter in folkdom. He displays John Prine's gift for stark little songs that tell big, complex stories, Guy Clark's lean melodicism, Lyle Lovett's wry mischief, and Bill Morrissey's knack for the revealing image."
CHRIS KOKESH'S stunning songwriting, crystalline vocals, tasty fiddle and solid guitar distinguish her as a stand-alone talent. Onstage Kokesh brings songs to life with a transparency that draws audiences in. She reveals the inner workings of her heart with grace and an unexpectedly wry sense of humor. Jeff Douglas or Oregon Public Broadcasting says, "Chris Kokesh is writing songs that stand up with the best. Keep an ear out for this emerging talent."
Jonathan Byrd and Chris Kokesh met in 2007 at the Americana Song Academy, a weeklong songwriting school in Sisters, Oregon. After teaching at the Academy, Jonathan went on to play the Sisters Folk Festival where he invited Chris to play with him. They played to two encores, and Jonathan was invited back to play again the next year, a rare honor bestowed by popular vote among the festival attendees.
