Raised in Rural Retreat, Virginia, Elizabeth LaPrelle (https://elizabethlaprelle.com/) has been performing Appalachian ballads and old-time songs since she was eleven. Her magnificent voice, her respect for the songs, and her authentic mountain sound and style brought her to the attention of first Ginny Hawker and then Sheila Kay Adams.

Wake Robin (https://wakerobin.bandcamp.com/) is a Pittsburgh folk group featuring Hannah Standiford, Judy Swanson & Annick Odom. The band draws from old-time traditions, the folk revival, early bluegrass, and their own original songwriting woven together with close harmonies.
