== BIOS & CONTEXT ==
LEAH SONG
Born into a musical family from Georgia, Leah Song is a storyteller, song-catcher, musician, poet, and community builder known primarily for her role as front-woman of Rising Appalachia, alongside her sister Chloe.
As a soloist she incorporates sultry vocals, storytelling, folklore, ballads and boleros into her laid back troubadour performances. Her music is based in the traditions of Southern soul, the diasporic music of the Celtic Isles and her deep studies of traditional folk music from across the Americas .
She has studied and worked alongside some of the greatest teachers and culture keepers of our time... including Dr. Clarissa Pinkola Estés, Bobby Mc Ferin, Martin Hayes, Martin Shaw, Joanna Macy, Winona LaDuke, Guadelupe Urbina, Sobunfu Some, and Rosemary Gladstar to name a few... Join her in gathering tools and teachings of resiliency, music, mythology, and celebration through sound.
Come dance and sway alongside us...
CASTANEA
Under the alias CASTANEA, David Brown of Rising Appalachia brings his musical versatility to the forefront, combining acoustic and electronic elements. Known for his skills on the upright bass and baritone guitar, Brown also excels in turntables and production, creating a sound that is as immersive as it is innovative.
The name CASTANEA, referring to a tree species reviving from near extinction in North America's eastern forests, symbolizes the rejuvenation and transformation present in his music. This project showcases his ability to weave traditional sounds with contemporary beats, crafting tracks that resonate with a wide array of listeners.

== A NOTE ON PRICING, ACCESSIBILITY & REFUNDS ==
Our finances work differently than other venues. We are small, independent and non-alcoholic space, which means we have to charge more for tickets to make our numbers work.
We love producing shows for the community -- and it's financially risky. We value both accessibility for the community and paying our artists & crew what they ask, while caring for the land as well. It's a continuous balancing act.
Some of our shows are sliding scale starting at $30. A few times a year we host higher ticket productions which are a key part of how our community supports itself.
