About The Artists

Madeleine Kelson is a Nashville based Americana artist. She pulls from a rich tradition of Folk, Country, and Americana, challenging its boundaries as a queer artist to represent the modern world. Madeleine spent her high school years in Chicago band, The Kelson Twins, playing venues including House of Blues and Thalia Hall, and landing a top Daytrotter Session with Paste Magazine. She later moved to Music City to pursue a solo career. Inspired by artists like Patty Griffin, Jason Isbell, andBrandi Carlile, her dynamic and down-to-earth storytelling and rich vocals are part of why NPR named her one 10 Nashville artists on the rise.

Once in Nashville, Madeleine won the 2017 International Bluegrass MusicAssociation’s (IBMA) Songwriter Showcase, and in 2018 released her acclaimed solo debut Siren, an introspective five-song EP with clean, melodic vocals backed by elegant countermelodies on violin. Praised by press for its genre-defying, sparse style and emotional richness, Siren earned Kelson comparisons to both Amos Lee and Gillian Welch.

In 2022, Madeleine released her debut, self-produced album, While I Was Away, on Olivia Records. Since its release she has gained praise from No Depression, been featured multiple times in NPR, and was a finalist in the prestigious Kerrville New Folk songwriting competition. Her queer country anthem, The Way I Do, became a viral TikTok hit with over 1.7 million views. Madeleine has been featured on Spotify editorial playlists including Queer as Folk, Emerging Americana, and Fresh Finds Folk. Her new EP, Where the Spirit Meets the Muscle, was released in February 2024.

Amy Martin emerges from the margins with her upcoming release Bones, an album born in restless nights and quiet reckonings — a record carved from hollow spaces and unresolved loss. With a voice steeped in raw honesty, the project sheds skin to reveal what remains: bone and marrow, fragility and stubborn strength.

Bones is not just a collection of songs, but a slow-burning confession — an excavation of grief in its many forms: the absence of loved ones, faith eroded by politics and religion, the weight of death, and the quieter ache of carrying the past into the present. Each track inhabits a different stage — anger, denial, bargaining, depression, acceptance — not as a linear path, but as emotional states that overlap, repeat, and refuse to resolve.

Rooted in Americana yet unafraid to wander, the album draws from dusky folk intimacy, roots rock grit, and acoustic confessionals. What makes Bones distinct is its quiet courage — the willingness to sit inside sorrow long enough for something true to surface.

For listeners drawn to music that doesn’t gloss over scars but instead traces their outlines, Bones offers solace, grit, and the uncompromising truth of a heart laid bare — a reminder that grief can be carried, named, and shared, and that no one walks it alone.
