ANDY HACKBARTH + SARAH MORRIS
Imbuing the American folk tradition with his indie pop sensibilities, singer-songwriter Andy Hackbarth creates music bearing the stamp of the contemporary West.
"You don't realize how much you have to learn until you move to Nashville," he says. "Truly great songs are so rare, and it's an incredible feeling to know that you've written a song in which every word countsone that forces everyone who hears it to stop, really listen, and look at the world in a completely different way."
Achieving this very effect, Treadmill Horses represents Andy Hackbarth's fourth album and contains seven carefully selected songs whose lyrics are as poetic as the arrangements are precise and beautiful. Featured tracks include: "1939," the album's first single, which expresses the thrills of one of America's earliest paratroopers and the courage of his homefront wife through the use of evocative images and the juxtaposition of tender and anthemic melodies; the unnerving "My Baby Don't Run," which eerily celebrates the failure of an attempted mugging; and "Windmills," a tribute to Pablo Neruda's Odes.
In an ever-growing industry of talented artists, Andy Hackbarth distinguishes himself as a "triple-threat," that is, one who is not just a striking vocalist, accomplished songwriter or gifted instrumentalist, but is all three. Like a breath of rarefied mountain air, his musicianship heightens the senses, while his music, taking full advantage, evokes a longing that is simultaneously nostalgic and expectant.

Singer-songwriter Sarah Morris has a way of captivating her audiences with songs about the highs and lows of love. With a voice both cozy and commanding, demure and daring, Sarah allows us to feel every note. Her lyrics resonate with a unique combination of unflinching honesty and heartfelt tenderness: authentic portraits of love, loss, gratitude and regret.
Sarah brings a mix of classical training and Nashville chops to the stage, with a style she likes to call "a little twang, a lot of heart." Now firmly planted in the Twin Cities music scene, Sarah is a regular at The Dakota, Aster Cafe and Hell's Kitchen. When not onstage, Sarah can also be heard singing lullabies, nursery rhymes and various radio-country t tunes, as requested by her two little bosses (aka beautiful children), Alistair and Millicent.
