Buttonwillow / Kat & Brad / High Tea

Buttonwillow – Made up of Chraissa Hoffman and Lucy Nelligan, Buttonwillow is an acoustic duo that was born at Berklee College of Music. Together Charissa and Lucy navigate the uncharted waters of fiddle-ukulele duos with a blend of original music and obscure covers ranging from Django Reinhardt to Norwegian folk music.

An indie-folk duo hailing from Boston MA, High Tea is a concoction of sweepingly soulful harmonies, tasty guitar riffs, and a refreshing blend of old blues and new pop. Their songs are ripe with Americana heartbreak and tell tales of growing up, going wild, and always coming back to the ones you love.

Drawing from 50s and 60s pop to American Songbook standards, Kat & Brad is a vibrant duo that fuses their influences to create new original songs that sound like old Stax records. Kat & Brad is Kathleen Parks (Twisted Pine) on vocals and fiddle & Brad Bensko (Bearded Cat Productions) on vocals and guitar. Life partners as well as musical partners, Kat & Brad bring a special chemistry and energy to their live performances.
