Griffin Brown
Griffin Brown is a composer, poet, songwriter+vocalist, drummer, producer, and multi-instrumentalist based in Brooklyn. Described by The Wire as “impressive” and “original,” his musical work collides—and sometimes exists wholly inside of—idioms like experimental pop and rock, jazz, electronic, classical, and improvised music. He’s performed/premiered music across the US and in Europe and shared stages with established and emerging international luminaries alike. His poems appear in The Paris Review, Poetry Northwest, Prelude, and elsewhere, and he studied composition and poetry at Yale.

Elora
Elora is a 23-year-old singer-songwriter born and raised in New York. While she first intended on pursuing a career in vocal jazz, she fell in love with writing during her studies at The New School for Jazz and Contemporary Music. She had the opportunity to study with artists Kate Davis and Vilray as she released her first EP ‘Hello Crow.’ This was an incredibly valuable experience which led her deeper into the recording arts. By the time of the pandemic she began producing her own music. It was through this experience that she was able to create the songs that represented her best, combining folk rock, psychedelia, and pop. Elora is currently recording her first album titled ‘Pitfall,’ comprised of songs written while quarantined in Brooklyn, New York.
