Ben Higginbotham / Brenna Carroll / Tolėdo

Ben Higginbotham is a recording artist, songwriter, producer, and multi-instrumentalist from Dallas, Texas. Currently in his final semester at Berklee College of Music, he lives in Boston, but splits his time between New York and Nashville cowriting and gigging. He has played venues such as the Bitter End in New York City and the Bluebird Cafe in Nashville, as well as countless places in and around Boston. Although Higginbotham is capable of writing in any style, the music he releases himself could be best described as alternative folk. He is inspired by a wide range of artists including Bon Iver, the Staves, Ben Folds, Randy Newman, Kurt Elling, and Al Jarraeu. Higginbotham hopes to one day have his music on the radio, in films, and in homes all around the world.

Brenna Carroll is a passionate singer-songwriter from the Washington, D.C. area. She enjoys writing and arranging music for herself as well as for other artists in the pop, folk, and R&B genres. She has performed frequently around Boston and New York City in addition to Valencia, Spain. Currently, Carroll is living in Boston after graduating from Berklee with a degree in contemporary writing and production. Caroll has also recently released her self-titled debut EP. Her ultimate goal is to work as a performing artist in London.

Tolėdo is an indie folk group based out of Boston, Massachusetts. The band features Daniel Alvarez and Jordan Dunn-Pilz, who have been writing music together since 2009. Blending their singer-songwriter roots with a contemporary folk sound, this young group presents a mature understanding of the genre with hybrid sounds and emotional stories.
