Babes In Canyon
Eloquently blending synth-folk, moody pop, club beats, and soaring vocal harmonies, Babes In Canyon crafts music that is eminently engaging and very much of the moment. Born of a spontaneous writing session during a winter storm blackout, the band wandered naturally into the land of heavy beats, lyricswith an element ofstorytelling, and synth-folk instrumentation with a twist. Lush and astutely layered, what began as an exploration of the outer edges of Americana has evolved into a cohesive, enchanting artistic statement. With a spate of national tours, festivals, and live performances under their belt, songwriters Nathan and Sophia Hamer conjure up layered soundscapes, “looping keys, beats, percussion effortlessly in an electric, raucous live performance” (Atwood Magazine). Receiving praise from the likes of Under The Radar, Magnet, and Big Takeover, BabesIn Canyon’s debut album “The New Loud” released in the fall of 2025. Genre-defying, expertly arranged, and profoundly catchy, Babes In Canyon stands ready to soundtrack your adventures - spontaneous or otherwise.
Anna Smyrk
Anna Smyrk is a powerful singer and songmaker from Naarm (Melbourne, Australia). Her anthemic indie songs pair vulnerable lyrics with explosive arrangements and undeniable hooks. Anna Smyrk's new album is all these things. Her first full length record, out now, dives deep into holding joy and pain together; a mix of comfort, sadness, and emotional release. Debuting #20 on the US specialty radio charts, #20 on the ARIA charts for Australia albums and getting multiple spins on BBC Radio, this is a release to watch. It showcases exceptional songwriting, driving indie-rock sounds, sweet alt-folk confessions, heart-wrenching lyrics and Anna's delicate yet powerful vocals, described as “truly astonishing” by Rolling Stone.
Shelby Natasha
Shelby Natasha is an alt-folk songwriter and Guzheng player from Seattle. Her music is an invitation into a world of RnB influenced Chinese-Folk Music. Inspired by her upbringing growing up between China and the PNW, her music draws greatly from the folk music of both cultures, reimagined in a modern production context. With ethereal vocals, Guzheng (the Chinese harp), and lofi production she creates a vibe that is both haunting and groovy. She has played in festivals such as Oregon Country Fair, NAMM, Any Patch of Grass, Belltown Bloom, Imagine Festival, Portland Folk Festival, Northwest Folklife and has played support slots for the artists East Forest, Simrit, and Yaima.
