Blend a powerful singer, a crisp acoustic guitar player, and a heartfelt observer of the world and you have Award Winning, Singer-Songwriter, Lynn Hollyfield. Her last recording, Look Up (2024) received 5 Washington Area Music Award Nominations and multiple Mid-Atlantic Songwriting awards. Lynn writes in a contemporary folk, jazz, bluesy style.
“Some songwriters are just profoundly deep, they’ve lived it and yet they are boots on the ground, where you get what they’re saying, and it grabs you. Tom Keever is what I am talking about!” – Louisa Branscomb Soulful, tender, provocative and occasionally gut-wrenching songs that connect with the listener. Tom is the rare sort of songwriter who evokes the past, hammers home the present and looks to the future.
When he’s not busy napping, Todd Hoke can frequently be seen wearing a big hat, drinking adult beverages, or, on those nights when the moon is holding water, both at the same time.
