Rachel Harrington

Reared among the Pentecostal pines of Oregon, Rachel Harrington has been doing things in the wrong order for quite some time. She'd had extensive radio play before performing her live show, and she was opening for Grammy winners and nominees before releasing her first record. Now, hot on the heels of her critically acclaimed 2007 debut, The Bootlegger's Daughter, Rachel presents CITY OF REFUGE. Her backing band on the recording is TIM O'BRIEN (fiddle), Mike Grigoni (dobro), Zak Borden (mandolin), and Jon Hamar (upright), with Holly O'Reilly and Pieta Brown on backing vocals.

Maria Byrne

Maria is an Irish singer-songwriter, originally from Cork and based for the last few years in London. She has turned her hand to a range of occupations over the years including a year-long stint welding hairline cracks in Rolls Royce Jet Engines. Discovering that she was much happier singing and writing songs based on conversations she heard on buses, she taught herself to play guitar and took off to London in search of opportunity and a decent cup of tea. Since then she has played all over the capital and is releasing her debut EP 'Jack' in April 2009.
