Based out of Seattle, WA, The Hipocrats are helmed by Tyler McGinnis and Sarah Brunner. The two musical dynamos blend hair-raising harmonies, melodies sure to stick in your head for days, and spunky lyrical imagery into their spin on classic Americana music – a can’t miss when they’re passing through your town.

Drawing inspiration from real-life scenarios with a healthy balance of imaginative liberties, the close friends began an ambitious and energetic songwriting campaign in the fall of 2021. Their whimsical personalities and close bond are on full display both on stage and in their (almost entirely) shared lives.

Catch-Phrase: Unapologetic Indie-Pop from Portland, Oregon

Portland, Oregon songwriter Hayley Lynn has been quietly growing songs and albums from her hometown over the last five years. Now, with a new EP on the horizon, Lynn unveils a twist in her sound with her single “Tail Lights,” a 90s indie-rock throwback that shows us that Lynn’s powerful pop-rock sensibility and bold lyricism is just beginning.

Amber’s seamless co-ordination of right and left hand picking, producing sometimes three or four easily discerned contrapuntal lines, evinces years of dedicated practice to create unique, highly imaginative music that never veers into wild flash for its own sake, but rivals musicians like Leo Kottke and Maria Kalaniemi for comfortably invigorating brilliance.
