Lo Monaco is an acoustic/alternative pop singer/songwriter with heartfelt lyrics, passionate vocals, and honest, emotive delivery. He writes his music from a very genuine and personal perspective, crafting engaging stories through complex melodies. Lo Monaco brings the excitement of his music to life on stage through looping and playing a mixture of his acoustic guitar and FX pedals, creating ambient sounds and percussive beats on the body of his Cole Clark. His creative practice is primarily inspired by artists such as Dallas Green, Dermot Kennedy, Bon Iver, U2, & INXS. These influences shine through in both his live and studio production.

Evan Bartels is a Nebraska born singer/songwriter living in Nashville. Evan comes from a town of 100 people called Tobias. Found on a lone stretch of highway that cuts across the Nebraskan prairie, it’s a place that offers immeasurable freedom, while threatening a life of unanswered wanting. It was here the sentiment behind his work was forged. Storytelling has always been a fixture in his writing, and Bartels continues to evolve his narratives by digging deeper beneath the surface and clinging to an authentic message. He captures a moment and fleshes it out to its barest, rawest form, thereby creating a piece of art that—regardless of genre or setting—moves the listener.
