About the Artists:
Cali Shaw incorporates acoustic guitars, banjo, charango, catchy lyrics and whistling. The result is a unique blend of songwriting and a fun twist on modern folk music. Working with some of the most talented and diverse musicians in the region, hes consistently pushed the Americana-folk-rock envelope beyond its traditional realms with the Cali Shaw Band. His eclectic cross-genre conception is perfectly displayed on his newest album, Under The Olive Tree and was Awarded Best Adult Contemporary and Nominated for Best Folk at the 2016 NM Music Awards.

Now based in Albuquerque NM, she teaches at the University of New Mexico in the Sustainability Studies and Women Studies Programs. Eileens songs often reflect the complex material she teaches: feminism, racial justice, and concern for the earth.
