Reed Foehl

Born in a small country town in New England and raised in a musical family, Grammy-nominated songwriter Reed Foehl crafts stories of the human condition with poignant lyrics and a voice that both pushes boundaries and honors tradition. His music, a blend of genuine Folk and Americana, is marked by a dusty, patient quality that resonates deeply.

In May 2022, Foehl released his sixth studio album, “Wild Wild Love,” recorded with The Band of Heathens in Austin, TX. The Boston Globe praised his work, stating, “He sings like he feels every note, each song tells a story… of which he relates astonishingly well.”

Foehl received a Grammy nomination for his song “Fly,” co-written with Brent Cobb and covered by country legend Lee Ann Womack.

Now residing in the Green Mountains of Vermont, Foehl continues to tour globally, sharing his music with audiences around the world.

Ingrid Avison

Equally at home napping under cottonwood trees and wearing sequined jumpsuits on stage, Ingrid is unapologetically herself. Soft and crunchy, gentle and wild, Ingrid sings of everything from raven’s wings to tampons and IUD’s. The Colorado-based musician sings of the struggles of dating in her 30s and intergenerational trauma. She sings to the all-of-it-ness of life. Ingrid sings of grief. Grief born of losing her father at 15. Grief stoked by relationships that never made good on their promises. Grief for an ailing world. Ingrid writes to revisit the well of love and loss, grief and gratitude, again and again. As a result, she knows that relationships are held in nests of Juniper bark. Cozy but vulnerable. Light enough to be carried away on a breeze. Ingrid lives in a world of secrets. As a desert wanderer she discovers them. As a therapist she holds them. As a writer she confesses them, letting you in on the messy, intimate details of what it means to be truly alive today through her genre-bending blend of folk, pop, soul and rock music. To watch Ingrid perform is to bear witness to a traveler, flawed and searching, tipping her hat to those who are making their own way. 

Ingrid’s creative journey coalesced quickly as she has made room in her life for her new found passion. Living in a quiet cabin home in the mountains with her dog, Olive, she quickly cultivated a steadfast dedication to the songwriting muse after writing her first songs in 2022. Ingrid will make her debut release at the end of September 2024. It was recorded and produced by her neighbor, Steve Szymanski, a co-founder of Planet Bluegrass, who says it felt meant to be. “I actually first met Ingrid walking her dog down our road and invited her over to my studio to record some of her new songs.” A musical bond quickly ensued. “Ingrid was new to it all, so we approached the project with a beginner’s mind. Rules were broken, tears, laughter and learning abounded and together we were able to manifest a collection of songs that rang true to Ingrid’s artistic vision.”

Door time: 7:30

Show time: 8:00

Griffin House is an American singer-songwriter and storyteller.  Touring and making records for over 20 years, House has a discography that includes over 13 albums.  His debut record  “Lost and Found” (2004) was featured on CBS Sunday Morning by music critic and then VP MTV/VH1, Bill Flanagan, who named House one of the best emerging singer-songwriters of our time.

After forging a loyal fan base through years of grassroots touring as an opener for acts such as John Mellencamp and the Cranberries, House broke through as a national headliner in 2009 with an appearance on Late Night with Craig Ferguson and the release of his underground hit “The Guy That Says Goodbye to You is Out of His Mind.”

The music documentary “Rising Star,” released on Amazon Prime in 2019, chronicles House’s journey through the music business, as he attempts to balance the challenges of life as a traveling modern-day troubadour with marriage, fatherhood and sobriety.

House’s music has been featured on prime-time television shows such One Tree Hill, Rescue Me, Party of Five, and Everwood, and reviewed in magazines such as Paste, No Depression and Rolling Stone.  American Songwriter writes “if you want to be blown away by raw talent, look no further than Griffin House.”

His latest release “The Tides” is a five song EP recorded with Grammy Award-winning producer Jacquire King and is set for release on Aug 29, 2023.  House will appear this year at Sisters Folk Festival and will continue his US tour in 2023-2024.

Ghost Resorts: Japan

Michael J Brown & Zeppelin Zeerip

With ski lifts no longer spinning and buildings falling into disrepair, abandoned ski areas are nestled among the snow-drifted peaks of Japan. The country’s massive economic boom in the 1980s fueled a wild demand for skiing and an explosion of new mountain resorts. The financial collapse that followed in 1991 decimated both the Japanese economy and the ski industry. Today, hundreds of ghost resorts span the mountains as silent witnesses to the pace of change. Yet the deep powder beckons those who seek to experience an unconventional backcountry adventure.

To Scale: Time

Alex Gorosh

On a dry lakebed in California, a group of friends attempt to build a scale model of time: a true illustration of cosmic evolution and our place within it. Over miles, they lay out tiny lights representing important moments in the history of the universe: the Big Bang, the meteor that killed the dinosaurs and the beginning of human civilization. The result is time represented by distance and the recognition that although we are alive for the briefest moment — in this demonstration, the width of a hair — our lives are a gift from the universe that we must spend wisely.
