Ryley Walker is a singer, songwriter, and guitarist from Rockford, IL who now resides in New York. He's released a string of critically-acclaimed albums through Tompkins Square, Dead Oceans, Thrill Jockey, Drag City, and most recently through his own Husky Pants label. His latest full-length, Course in Fable, was produced by Tortoise's John McEntire, and Ryley has recently been touring as the support act for Dinosaur Jr.

J.R. Bohannon is a 6 &12 string fingerstyle guitarist from Louisville, Kentucky, now residing in Brooklyn. Rooted in the traditions of the American south, Bohannon has been honing his craft behind the scenes of his drone/ambient project, Ancient Ocean. His most recent album, Compulsions, is out through Astral Editions.

Ryley and J.R. will perform in a duo setting for guitar and pedal steel.

Janel and Anthony: Both musicians, together and separately, have long been an important and active part of Washington D.C.’s new-music scene. Anthony Pirog, an omnivorous, multi-faceted guitarist who studied jazz at Berklee and has performed country, fingerstyle, rock and surf music and Janel Leppin, a conservatory trained cellist steeped in North Indian and Persian classical music, who also plays electric bass in rock bands, have created a lavishly detailed musical journey, by turns ravishing and harrowing. Janel and Anthony alternately charm and challenge, with music that draws from classical, experimental, jazz, rock and electronic traditions but that ultimately is simply theirs.
