About The Artists:

Abbie Gardner (left) is a fiery dobro player with an infectious smile. Whether performing solo or with Americana darlings, Red Molly, Gardner’s acclaimed tales of love and loss, both gritty and sweet, are propelled by her impeccable slide guitar chops. Her live shows are truly unique - as an award-winning songwriter, captivating vocalist, and a world-class lap style dobro player, she has an unmistakable sound all her own.

From Abbie Gardner’s 2022 “DobroSinger” CD, preview her song “Born in the City”. Listen to her artistry here: abbiegardner.com

Tracy Grammer (right) is among contemporary folk music's most beloved artists. Renowned for her pure voice, deft guitar and violin work, and incantatory storytelling, Grammer has recorded and performed with Joan Baez and Mary Chapin Carpenter, headlined several of the nation's top folk festivals, including Philadelphia Folk Festival and Falcon Ridge, and enjoyed 12 consecutive years as one of folk radio's 50 top-played artists, singing both solo as well as with the late Dave Carter.   LOW TIDE, the first of her albums to showcase her original songs, has met with high acclaim. Music Matters Review shares about Grammer’s LOW TIDE: “A bold new sound, attitude, and personal viewpoint…. engaging songs beautifully sung and arranged.”

Village Records says that with Hole, from Grammer’s LOW TIDE, Grammer continually demonstrates that she’s “a voice to be reckoned with.” Listen to her songs here: tracygrammer.com
