| Description |
 Vermont native Anais Mitchell entered the underground folk scene in 2002. Mitchell, who grew up on a sheep farm, makes small-sounding, big-thinking folk albums that play like a front-porch serenade. Her 2004 release, Hymns For The Exiled, reached the ears of Ani DiFranco, a songwriter whose fusion of personal and political themes was a formative influence on a teenaged Mitchell. After seeing a few of Anais' captivating concerts, DiFranco signed the artist to her label, Righteous Babe Records; Mitchell's Righteous Babe debut, The Brightness, was released in February 2007.
photoAntje Duvekot (pronounced Aunt-ya Doo-va-kot) first gained prominence when a song she wrote was covered by Irish supergroup Solas on their The Edge of Silence CD. Solas founder Seamus Egan returned the favor by producing Duvekot's first major studio CD, Big Dream Boulevard. Duvekot, who was born in Heidelberg, Germany and moved to the U.S. as a teenager, believes that her bicultural upbringing, and her relative newness to English, helped shape her unique way with a song, giving her a startlingly original poetic palette.
