Born and raised in St. Louis and now based in Seattle, Lizzie Weber’s debut inspired local magazine Eleven to pronounce her “Your Favorite New Artist of 2014.” Soon after, Lizzie collaborated with Grammy-winning producer Sheldon Gomberg and her own brother, John Schranck, Jr., on “Love Again.” Seattle Weekly championed the Lizzie's latest EP, cheering “it takes a deft touch to craft aching odes to relationships’ ends while still maintaining a composed confidence devoid of melodrama. Seattle singer-songwriter Lizzie Weber pulls off the feat on her new 3-song EP, ‘You.’ ” Lizzie has shared stages with Mason Jennings, Roo Panes, Peter Bradley Adams , Zella Day, and Markéta Irglová (The Swell Season /Once). Marketa and Lizzie recently collaborated on “River,” a double-single featuring “River” and “Free Floating” out now.
Ben Mish is an experienced singer, songwriter, and performer. His musical style is steeped in tradition, yet with originality. As a songwriter, Ben has licensed many songs for use in film and television. His song “Shine on Everything” was used as the featured song on the ABC-TV show Grey's Anatomy. As a performer, Ben has toured extensively. Notable performances with his band, Left Hand Smoke, include a headlining stage at Seattle's famous Bumbershoot Festival and an opening slot for Eddie Vedder of Pearl Jam. He has recently formed a trio, and his latest album, “The Wolf at the Door,” was released in 2018.
For the past twenty years, Wes Weddell has worked multiple shifts in the engine room of Seattle’s roots music scene, keeping his hands in abundant projects as frontman, sideman, writer, instructor, and community-builder. “Always heartfelt and well-constructed” (Seattle Weekly), listeners have come to expect Weddell’s songs to “speak for themselves” (No Depression). In 2010, Weddell began working with The Bushwick Book Club Seattle, an expanding collective of artists who write and perform new works inspired by literature. Songs from this catalogue appear on his latest release, Somewhere in the Middle, and comprise the entirety of Nobody’s Flag (2015).
