Graceful Acoustic. Contemporary Folk. Driving Roots.

"Fantastic live performance. It’s amazing that so much warmth can come from just two guitars and two voices."
 - Eric Behlmer, Barn Concerts 


Greg’s guitar work is a masterclass in texture, blending alternate tunings and partial capos with the melodic echoes of a lifetime of influence, from the Byrds to Bruce Cockburn. Paired with Bev’s crystal-clear vocals, the duo creates a sound that is both intricate and intimate. Together, they deliver well-matched harmonies that breathe life into songs of everyday grace, extraordinary love, and a shared vision for a more just and peaceful world.

Their three album collections - Starry Starry Night, Any Doorway will Do and Love Can Change the World - can be found on all of your favorite streaming platforms.
