Kiki Cavazos

Recorded in New Orleans, new album ‘Goodbye Blues’ marks the emergence of a songwriting talent with power comparable to that of Blaze Foley or Townes Van Zandt. Time spent drifting from the northwest to Mexico to New Orleans and now to Montana has kept her off of the industry’s radar until recently.

Now, following her Newport Folk Fest appearance, she opened concerts for Big Thief and the Deslondes. Her performances on the Western AF have combined to garner over 200k views with the tastemaker site calling her “the GOAT.”

Cavazos’ fans include Esther Rose, Benjamin Todd (Lost Dog Street Band), Riley Downing, Chris Acker, and Luke Bell. She collaborated as a member of a band (called Sundown) with Alynda Lee Segarra (of Hurray For the Riff Raff) and Sam Doores (of The Deslondes), the latter of whom produced this album.

Jackson and the Janks

Born in Ireland, Jackson Lynch moved to New York City's East Village at a young age.  Formerly residing in New Orleans he remains an integral part of the music world there with his band The Janks. 

Now living in both Red Hook, Brooklyn and part time in NOLA, Jackson Lynch plays solo, with The Janks and with his string band The Down Hill Strugglers, hailed by Amanda Petrusich in the New Yorker as, "the very best interpreters of traditional material presently going.”

"Long recognized as one of the NYC folk scene’s best singers...Jackson Lynch’s time in New Orleans was clearly well-spent, as he put together folk, blues, gospel, and early jazz influences on an album that’s half original and half choice material interpreted masterfully." - American Blues Scene
