J. Killen is a Portland, OR-based Americana singer-songwriter whose timeless songwriting blends classic country, folk, and heartland rock. Following the release of his debut album, Goin' It Alone, Killen spent 2026 steadily building a national audience, completing two U.S. tours with a third set for October. His sophomore album, Depression Dollars, arrives on October 16, further showcasing his honest storytelling, road-worn perspective, and unmistakable voice. With relentless touring and songs that feel equally at home in a honky-tonk or on a lonely highway, J. Killen is quickly becoming one of Americana's most promising new artists. For Fans Of: Tyler Childers, John Prine, Turnpike Troubadours, Sturgill Simpson, Townes Van Zandt, Charley Crockett Living and working in Minneapolis, Minnesota, D.C. Leonhardt is a mostly traditional folksinger, whose songs focus on labor, religion, love, and hard living. His live sets are a blend of story and song, humor and tragedy, all seeking to illuminate the ordinary. His debut album, (roughly), was released in October of 2024. It features 12 original songs recorded live in his apartment living room. It was followed by a live four song EP, The Greenway Sessions, released in April of 2025. For Fans Of: Woody Guthrie, Gordon Lightfoot, Townes Van Zandt, Fred eagleSmith, Kate Wolf Fronted by songwriter Jenna Andriano, Ditchweed is country music for the broken-hearted. Often taking cues from Appalachian folk harmonies and putting an agnostic spin on traditional gospel country roots, lineups regularly feature lap steel and fiddle, adding a classic honky tonk sound. Songs center around loss, love, and longing. Ditchweed recently released their full-length album, “Sweeter Than Life,” which is available on streaming and vinyl.
