Jake William Capistran is a Portland-based singer and multi-instrumentalist whose unique blend of folk, rock, and soul can be heard up and down the west coast. Featuring the simple accompaniment of an acoustic guitar or piano, or the support of his [up to eight-piece] backing band, Capistran's live-performances are as dynamic as his records, spanning the distance from bombastic pop to intimate singer-songwriter.

Eric Lee is a Pennsylvania-born songwriter and award-winning instrumentalist who's masterful and engaging performances have carried him across the U.S. and abroad. Lee's writing draws from a deep well of folk and bluegrass tradition, and is both heightened in its imagery and accessible in its language of raw honesty.

Arden Lloyd is a singer-songwriter originally from Amherst, MA, and is currently studying at Northeastern University. At age 12, she began developing her musical voice writing acoustic songs on guitar and piano. After joining her high school's jazz band in 10th grade as a trumpeter and vocalist, she became deeply interested in music and different genres.
