Drawn to the quiet stories of everyday life, Anna Tivel guides her work with a clear eyed empathy. The characters and imagery that populate her songs walk the fragile divide between hope and despair, a reflection of harsh waking realities and the kaleidoscopic nature of dreams. Anna has been praised by Rolling Stone, NPR, Pitchfork, and others for her keen observation of the human condition.
J.E. Sunde (Jonathan Edward Sunde) is a songwriter and composer based out of Minneapolis, MN. Jon studied western classical music with a vocal emphasis at the University of Wisconsin Eau Claire. Starting in college, Jon spent ten years making beautifully unusual music with The Daredevil Christopher Wright. He has since released three solo records with his most recent record, “9 Songs About Love,” released in November of 2020. With a love of songwriters and performers like Leonard Cohen, Nina Simone, and Paul Simon, Jon writes densely poetic songs with a bent toward the philosophical. Also, his voice sounds like some sort of weird angel.
