Angela Autumn (Nashville, TN | Roots Americana / Alternative Indie)
Hailing from the hills of Pennsylvania and now rooted in Nashville, Angela Autumn channels the spirit of old, weird America. A deft multi-instrumentalist on guitar and clawhammer banjo, her music blends primitive blues with sharp indie sensibilities. Her single Electric Lizard turned heads with its striking fusion of raw energy and literary depth. Whether delivering a lonesome Appalachian ballad or a driving roots anthem, Autumn’s music honors tradition while forging new sonic paths.
Omar Ruiz-Lopez (Durham, NC | Roots / Progressive Folk / Old-time / Americana)
A multi-instrumentalist, songwriter, and educator, Omar Ruiz-Lopez has been a cornerstone of the NC Triangle music scene for over a decade. His expressive violin, viola, guitar, and mandolin work have led him to collaborations with GRAMMY-nominated The War and Treaty, Lizzie No, and Langhorne Slim, as well as co-writing with Rachel Baiman and GRAMMY-winner Melody Walker. Fresh from a two-year stint in Nashville, he is currently recording a full-length album with Rachel Baiman producing and an EP with Wila Frank (Paper Wings).
Lyle de Vitry (Asheville, NC | Folk / Baroque Folk / Singer-Songwriter)
Lyle de Vitry’s music moves like the natural world—ebbing between harmony and tension, voice and instrumentation, comfort and catharsis. An acclaimed songwriter and multi-instrumentalist, he was a 2023 Telluride Troubadour finalist and runner-up in the NewSong LEAF Singer-Songwriter Competition. His compositions carry an ethereal, slow-burn intensity, invoking mystery and emotional depth. Recently completing the Residency at 821 (Lamplight AVL), de Vitry is now recording an instrumental album while his debut Door Within a Dream continues to resonate with listeners.
"The music is full of mystery and a kind of slow-burn intensity. Invokes worlds." —Lynne Bertrand, Signature Sounds Presents
