ABOUT ASPENYARROW
Aspenyarrow is an emerging singer-songwriter from Alaska, blending the introspective storytelling of Maisie Peters with the ethereal soundscapes of Imogen Heap. Drawing inspiration from artists like Lizzy McAlpine, Dodie, and Phoebe Bridgers, Aspenyarrow crafts songs that explore the complexities of mental health, relationships, and self-discovery.

Her sound is a dreamy fusion of bedroom pop and dream-pop, rich with harmonies and raw emotion. With a voice that captivates and lyrics that resonate, Aspenyarrow is set to make waves with her upcoming mental health-themed album, a deeply personal journey of healing and hope. Her brand-new EP, Too, was released last month and can be found wherever music is heard, and her first solo studio album is due out later this year.

ABOUT THE RIVER LIVERS 
The River Livers are a dynamic ensemble that crafts a whimsically powerful blend of reggae, grassroots, jam, and rock in their originals and reimagined covers that speak to both wandering souls and hometown heroes alike.
