Remi Goode is a trained classical guitarist and choral singer turned alternative folk singer-songwriter. In a continual search for the truth, her lyrics are filled with paradoxes, puzzles, and multiple perspectives, with Remi attempting to rid herself of black-and-white thinking and, instead, embrace the grey areas in her life. Things I've Said Before, the debut album from Remi Goode due September 26, is an introduction to the indie-folk artist who straddles the borders between different worlds. A nylon-string guitarist nodding to the classical training and contemporary influences of her past while pushing toward a wider sound, she creates her own version of modern-day American roots music: one that's intimate one minute and cinematic the next, making room for folky bedroom recordings, full-band studio performances, and all points in between.
Known for her poignant lyrics, radiant energy, and warm, tender vocals, Ellie Fern has grown from Phoenix indie darling to a New York-based artist. Grounded and unplugged, she spent six years as a solo performer—opening for Melissa Etheridge, Switchfoot, Collective Soul, and Bruce Hornsby & The Noisemakers—before forming Ellie Fern & The Evergreen with her best friends JP Rabusa, Kiernan Marriott, Sadie Azersky, and Nick Martinez. Together, the five-piece alternative indie band decorates her music with intricate harmonies and lush musical textures. Their genuine joy on stage is infectious, lighting up every room they play. From Southwest stages to the East Coast scene, Ellie Fern & The Evergreen are just getting started.
Steff Koeppen is a singer, songwriter, and keyboardist from Tucson, Arizona.

Steff has also performed with and appeared on recordings for indie rock bands Copeland and Calexico. She continues to perform regularly around the Southwest as a soloist, with her original band, and as a sideman for other performing groups and shows.
