Dawn Landes is a folk/Americana singer-songwriter whose music you might have heard if you watch The Good Wife, House or Gossip Girl. Along with releasing six albums since 2005 (and an EP inspired by yé-yé, ‘60s French pop music), she’s a frequent collaborator with contemporaries such as Sufjan Stevens, Norah Jones and composer Nico Muhly. She has toured internationally supporting Nick Lowe, Mary Chapin Carpenter and Steve Earle and has appeared as a guest artist with the Boston Pops, the NYC Ballet and on the TED main stage. Dawn’s most recent album is a collection of songs from her musical ROW, premiering this summer at Williamstown Theatre Festival. ROW tells the true story of the first woman to row solo across the Atlantic Ocean.

Banjo player, guitarist, and songwriter Steph Jenkins grew up in a musical family in Manhattan’s Upper West Side. She started playing old-time banjo at 16 and has been playing American traditional music ever since. Her love for old-time music grew in Ithaca, where she studied ethnomusicology at Cornell University, and steeped herself in the music scene, playing with local banjo legend Richie Stearns, and with her old-time duo The Pearly Snaps. Now a Brooklynite, Steph works as an producer and archival researcher with Ken Burns and plays in old-time string band the Calamity Janes.
