Guthrie's Ghost * June 10

Acclaimed independent singer/songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, poet, engineer, and producer Fred Gillen Jr. has traveled around the world for the last 25 years, performing his songs of hope in his never-ending quest to "wage love," carrying the musical mantles of Woody Guthrie and Pete Seeger. "GUTHRIE’S GHOST," comprised of Gillen, David Bernz and his son Jacob, Julie Corbalis, and Steve Kirkman is poised to do just that. 

David Bernz has produced Grammy award-winning CDs for Pete Seeger. Of Jacob, world-renowned blues artist Guy Davis says, "You can tell that Jacob Bernz is meant to play this earthy full-out style of acoustic world music." Corbalis has opened for such well-established musical acts as Amy Correia, Gandalf Murphy and the Slambovian Circus of Dreams, and Sarah Lee Guthrie, to name a few. Steve Kirkman has gone from rural North Carolina to New York by way of Nashville and Memphis, opening for the likes of Richard Thompson, Ritchie Havens, John Kay and Steppenwolf, Jefferson Starship, Procol Harum, and Roger McGuinn.

THE SEA THE SEA (Chuck E. Costa and Mira Costa) are an Upstate New York-based indie folk-pop duo featuring what Bob Boilen (NPR’s All Songs Considered) calls “excellent harmonies” and the Huffington Post calls, “Two of the loveliest male-female voices you might ever hear this or any other year.” The group’s 2020 release, Stumbling Home, dubbed “otherworldly” by Rolling Stone marks the duo’s third full-length album, and the duo’s first primary recording/engineering credits on one of their albums, as well as that of co-producers—teaming up with recent Grammy and Tony award winner Todd Sickafoose (Hadestown, Anais Mitchell, Ani DiFranco, Andrew Bird).

Previous releases from The Sea The Sea - "Love We Are We Love” (2014), “In the Altogether” (2016 / EP), and “From The Light” (2018) - have been praised by outlets including NPR, American Songwriter, and No Depression, and the animated video for their song "Waiting" sparked viral interest from Buzzfeed and Pitchfork, as well as inclusion at the international TED 2015 conference. The band has garnered features across all music platforms including Apple Music’s “Best of the Week” and “A-List Singer/Songwriter,” gathering 20+ million streams on Spotify to date.

Live performance broadcast appearances of The Sea The Sea include Mountain Stage, whose host Larry Groce calls them "ready to take their place among the best young male/female duos now performing,” Audiotree, and Paste Music / Daytrotter where the duo was recently described as "defined by their infallible vocal harmonies and their unconventional song arrangements. The Sea The Sea is a pop band only in their melodic infectiousness—otherwise, they are at their best when subverting conventions."
