EMERSON WOOLF & THE WISHBONES
Genre-defying Emerson Woolf & the Wishbones have been categorized as many things: Indie Alternative, Folk Rock, Dark Country, and Pop Americana, to name a few. Their music forms itself around Emerson’s songwriting, and the raw lyrics and visual storytelling pull listeners in from all walks of musical appreciation. Her songs are often a collage of autobiographical and completely fantastical elements, creating a unique space that is so relatably human while also seeming otherworldly and cinematic.
The band has been capturing attention in the indie music space since the release of their debut EP Not a Good Woman, and they’ve certainly managed to keep it with their recent release Too Easy to Kill, featuring Thia Kane.
Since taking the leap into full-time music, Emerson Woolf & the Wishbones have released several well-received records, including their debut full-length album “Everything Must Go,” which earned them the 2023 Makin Waves Best New Artist Award. Their catalog features notable songs like “Not a Good Woman,” “Wouldn’t it Be Funny,” and “Like Louisiana Sky,” showcasing their evolving sound and emotional depth. The band’s passionate approach and connection with their audience continue to build their reputation as rising stars in the indie and Americana music scenes.
GABE QUINN
If one word could describe a Gabe Quinn song it would be evocative, a word which he continues to embody on his debut EP, All I Know [Nettwerk Music Group]. A thread of reminiscence and introspection run throughout the six song tracklist, where even keeled lyrics partner with hooky melodies to create acoustic driven atmospheres that paint vivid imagery and emotion from start to finish. The nineteen year old, hailing from the small town of Maynard, MA, fell in love with songwriting shortly after learning guitar in 2020, and with sharing music with the world while busking on the streets of Boston, MA. Learning online how to produce, he began to bring his songs to life in a bare bones studio setup in his childhood home, consisting of a single microphone, his laptop, and headphones.
