Liz Rognes
Originally from Iowa, Liz Rognes is a singer/songwriter and multi-genre artist currently based in Spokane, Washington. Classically trained as a soprano, Liz started writing and singing folk songs in college and fell in love with the idea of singing about her trouble. Her songs range from playfully flirtatious to introspective to string-busting energetic. Liz worked closely with her friend and producer Dan Zamzow of Deep Sea Productions to create her first album, Red Flags, in 2009, which quickly sold out. Liz re-released the record in Spokane in 2010, with the cover artistry of Bethany DeLine. A follow-up to Red Flags is percolating, but meanwhile, Liz continues cultivating her loves for vermiposting, vegan cooking, thinking, and teaching. http://lizrognes.com/
Brad Sondahl
Brad Sondahl has been playing finger style guitar and writing songs since the early 1970′s. He lives in Spirit Lake, Idaho. His picking is styled after Mississippi John Hurt, Rev. Gary Davis, and Sam McGee. His songs tend to have love somewhere in them, in many of its manifestations. Songwriters that have influenced Brad include Bob Dylan and the anonymous folk balladeers, blues men, and old time musicians of the US.. Brad is accompanied on the acoustic bass by Jonathan Hawkins, who teaches bass playing in Spokane. http://sondahl.com/
