Broommaker (DC, folk)
Broommaker began as Teething Veils in 2006 in Washington, DC, playing occasional live shows at places such as the Montgomery College Planetarium and their own living room at 611 Florida Ave, becoming more active about six years later. They have released five LPs (Velorio, 2013; Constellations, 2014; Sea and Sun, 2017; Canopy of Crimson, 2020; and To Have and to Hold, 2022) and a 7” single (Dinner Date, 2015) through the artist-run DC-and-Santa-Fe-based collective Etxe Records. They have played live for audiences in 48 US states and the District of Columbia, and two Canadian provinces.
"These little songs—sepia-toned yet searching, eccentric yet melodically inclined—add up to something that feels like its own pocket universe, sometimes wistful, sometimes the kind of menacing only achieved via a late-career Tom Waits death rattle."
-Washington City Paper
“If the latest from this self-described chamber-folk outfit feels funereal, it isn’t just because bandleader Greg Svitil sings like a eulogist. It’s because funerals allow emotions to be purged and smothered, making time feel stranger than slow.”
-Chris Richards, Washington Post
Jason Anderon (Canada, folk)
Jason Anderson is an award-winning indie/folk artist based in eastern Canada. He has collaborated with Mount Eerie, toured with Joyce Manor, and worked with a number of seminal independent labels including K Records and Salinas. His evocative lyrics, anthemic melodies, and cathartic live performances have taken him around the world, making friends and fans one electrifying concert at a time. Personal, passionate, poetic, Anderson's music crackles with life. “Jason Anderson is the prototypical DIY legend. His shows are legendary experiences, his records are beautiful.” - The Psychic Garden
