ELIZABETH LANDRY

Originally from the very northern tip of the Mitten, Elizabeth Landry, previously known as E Minor, is now based in Traverse City Michigan. Elizabeth was born into a family heavily influenced by music and arts.  

Although Landry is well known in many parts of the Mitten, her music is well traveled. Touring nationally and playing many well known theaters, breweries, festivals and venues. She can be seen playing with her trio including Caul Bluhm and rotating guitarists Joe Wilson and Chris Michels. With a 2018 album release under her full maiden name Elizabeth Landry. Produced by bandmate Joe Wilson and recorded at The Holy Wah Studio in Maple City, MI and the 2023 release of Elizabeth Landry Trio Live from Fischer’s Happy Hour. 

Whether she is playing solo or with the band, many are sure to get lost in Elizabeth’s sweet, smoky melodies, and storytelling lyrics

SIERRA CASSIDY

Sierra Cassidy is a Leelanau County, Michigan-born singer-songwriter and the creative force behind the indie-folk project i.am.james. Blending contemporary folk, indie rock, and cinematic pop, her music explores themes of nature, femininity, and emotional transformation through raw lyricism and lush arrangements.

A graduate of Interlochen Arts Academy and Berklee College of Music drop-out, Cassidy spent her early twenties between Nashville and Northern Michigan, performing both solo and with a trio as i.am.james.

Cassidy returned to Northern Michigan in 2023 and began recording her debut full-length album, The Garden, a coming-of-age collection tracked in a snow-covered cottage with producer Michael Dause of TreeTone Studios. Drawing sonic inspiration from artists like Phoebe Bridgers, Maggie Rogers, and Pinegrove. The album have since been performed across the Midwest on stages like Bliss Festival and Wheatland.

Whether performing solo as Sierra Cassidy or with her full band as i.am.james., she offers listeners a sound that is intimate, evocative, and rooted in story.

ZACH PETERSON

Zach Peterson is a Detroit area singer-songwriter and member of the band The Tread Lightlies. Zach got his start writing songs and performing in his teens around his hometown of Grand Rapids, MI. From there he went on to college in Canada and later spent a decade as a journalist covering the U.S. military during the ill-advised wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. He spent time in both countries, experiences detailed in a few of his songs.

Zach has showcased at the Folk Alliance Midwest Region (FARM) annual convention outside Chicago and has performed in venues large and small from the State Theater in Falls Church, VA to smaller spaces like Lagerhouse in Detroit.

JOSE ROSE

Josh Rose grew up in the northern woodlands and fine tuned his songwriting in the borderlands. He has spent the past ten years touring the Midwest, teaching, writing, and creating a rich body of work. Josh is the type of writer who labors over every word and wants his songs to be injected into the listener’s permanent being.

Rose’s mezmerizing songs float into the room like a Lake Michigan evening onshore breeze. They refresh you, they energize you and the linger long into the darkness of your favorite nights. His genre defying approach and pwoerful writing make each of his shows unique and fluid.

In his 21 year career, Rose has shared the stage with Ziggy Marley, Styx, KT Tunstall, G Love, Jill Andrews and hundreds from around the Midwest.
