Erin Ash Sullivan

Massachusetts-based singer-songwriter Erin Ash Sullivan’s initial foray into music was as one-half of the folk duo Edith O. with Amy Speace. After a hiatus to focus on her family and career as an educator, she returned to writing and performing. In May 2021, she released her debut solo album, We Can Hear Each Other, which reached #10 on the FAI DJ Chart; her single, “Fireflies,” reached #8. In 2022, she was selected as one of the “Most Wanted” performers from Grassy Hill Emerging Artist Showcase at the Falcon Ridge Folk Festival and was John Platt’s selection for the Folk DJ Showcase at NERFA. She won the 2023 Rose Garden Performing Songwriter Competition, received the Mark Erelli Judge’s Choice Award in the New England Songwriting Competition, and was a finalist in the Great American Song Contest and the Mid-Atlantic Song Contest. WFUV’s John Platt describes Erin as having “a special talent that reminds me of early Dar Williams,” and Victor Infante of the Worcester Telegram & Gazette describes her music as “delicate and evocative” with songs full of “nuance and emotional resonance.”

Dylan Patrick Ward plays his own brand of weird folk music inspired by indie rock and outlaw country. Chris Farnsworth of Seven Days described his songs as having “hyper-literate lyrics and a dark sense of humor” and acclaimed singer-songwriter Peter Mulvey said of Dylan: “He’s funny. He’s also serious as an ax handle.”

Growing up in Vermont’s Dirty South, Dylan has always had an affinity for oddballs, underdogs and loveable losers. He started his music career in 2020, releasing a slew of lofi, home recordings ala Daniel Johnston. Since then he’s collaborated with a number of local and regional artists and opened for renowned touring acts like Peter Mulvey and The End of America (TEOA.)
