Hailing from the United Kingdom and Canada, Brooklyn-based songwriter Wilsen (formerly known as Tamsin) pulls from the warm folk sounds of Joni Mitchell and Nick Drake, with a dash of Feist, to create a welcoming ambiance and heartfelt songs. Now she's supported by a full band and electric sound, adding edge and dynamism to the music's arcane undertones.

Hannah Read is Scottish-born singer, songwriter, and fiddler player currently residing in Brooklyn, New York. Her new music draws on folk, jazz, and indie influences, forming a unique alternative sound, which can be heard on her debut solo album, Wrapped in Lace. Read has toured extensively in the states, as well as in Europe.
