About Lindsay Clark:
Lindsay Clark finds balance between traditional and english folk, country, and her own version of experimental folk that seems to come from within. Exquisite and pitch perfect, her music speaks of quiet revelation, with a background of (usually her own) multi-tracked vocal arrangements. With influences ranging from the Beach Boys, Elizabeth Cotton, Joni Mitchell, Appalachian folk, her classical upbringing, and her father's record collection, she blends many worlds into a uniquely warm sound. She has carved out a vibrant place as an artist with a penchant for poetry, rich harmony, and a style of self-taught fingerpicking influenced by Nick Drake, John Fahey, and others.
Originally from the small gold rush town of Nevada City, CA, she now resides in Portland, OR. Her sound has been described as “folk with angelic vocals washing over smooth edges” (1859 Magazine). She has shared the stage with musicians such as Alela Diane, Adam Torres, Nat Baldwin (Dirty Projectors), Ryan Francesconi (Joanna Newsom), Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith and Michael Hurley. “Crystalline” was released in 2018 via boutique German label Oscarson.
Her forthcoming full-length album (which she wrote, produced and co-arranged), Carpe Noctem, features guitarist William Tyler, Alela Diane, Sage Fisher (Dolphin Midwives), Alexis Mahler (Shook Twins) & Andy Rayborn (Paper Gates). It was engineered and co-arranged with Jeremy Harris (Devendra Banhart, Hand Habits), and is out 6/24/22 with Audiosport Records (NL). She has also recently collaborated on Michael Hurley's latest release, Time of the Foxgloves (No Quarter Records). She is currently at work on her first collection of lyric memoir-in-essays.

About Louiza:
Born and raised in Marin County, LOUIZA grew up on music and has been singing since she can remember. She attended Marin Academy for high school before studying Classical voice at Skidmore, then transferred to the New School for Jazz in NYC, where she earned her BFA.
LOUIZA’s creative process is playful and happens everywhere: whether it’s in the car or hiking in the woods, even in the middle of the night. Regardless of where and when inspiration arrives, she fleshes them out with the help of her synthesizer and Ableton. Her sound is a fusion of classical technique, alt-pop, rock and modern electronic music. She draws inspiration from a wide range of genres, including blues, pop, and R&B.
LOUIZA has achieved many notable accomplishments throughout her career, including playing at renowned venues such as the Rickshaw Stop, collaborating with talented musicians, and receiving glowing press for her music. But what LOUIZA hopes audiences take away from her creative projects is simple: she wants to move people with her music.
Offstage, LOUIZA grew up listening to the blues, which she credits with helping her dial into the raw emotion behind music. Recently she’s taken up dance as a hobby, which has helped her connect with her body and express her feelings in a new way. LOUIZA's curiosity for exploring American culture's internalized ideologies has been a major source of inspiration for her latest album Blood Sweat Rinse Repeat which she just finished recording.
