  Evangeline Young is a Brooklyn based singer-songwriter and actor originally from Philadelphia. Having grown up in a family of folk singers, her music moves between the softer acoustic sounds of the folk songs she was raised on, and the harder edges of her indie-rock influences. Her lyrics feature a conversational poetry aimed at personal revelation with a few laughs along the way. In 2022, Evangeline opened for Glen Hansard (The Swell Season) at the Beacon Theatre in NYC and The Anthem in Washington D.C. She is currently finishing her first full length record which will be released next year.

  O.0blivion is a performing name used by (guitarist-lite) Oren Bloedow, slightly known for journeyman work behind numerous ‘Name’ artists about whom you can ask him directly, if you like; more collaborative work with leaders such as Meshell Ndegeocello, Chocolate Genius, Anohni and 101 Crustaceans; and co-leading the band Elysian Fields with lifetime music partner Jennifer Charles.  He will appear tonight with his own tunes, singer/ bassist Adam Minkoff and drummer Robert DiPietro.

  Early Worm is a Brooklyn based alternative folk trio consisting of Liam Hastings, Henry Nelson, and Will Curry. They released their debut EP, EW.EP1, in May 2024, and are currently working on their debut full-length album.

   

  Damon Smith is a NYC-based pianist, songwriter, and improviser. Born and raised in Brooklyn, he has played his original music at venues such as the Highline Ballroom, the Joe’s Pub, CBGB’s, and Webster Hall. His debut solo album, “Intimate Machinery,” came out shortly after Smith graduated from NEC in December 2017. His second album “God of the Grid” dropped in March 2019, which prompted NPR’s Here and Now to state: “Excited for what he has next.” He has a band with his brother Brendan Jacob Smith called The Brightmares, and their debut album “When The World Gets Fixed” dropped in 2022.
