Kimon Kirk - Bassist, singer-songwriter-guitarist, and producer Kimon Kirk's 2021 release Altitude is his first solo album in ten years.
Having toured and recorded with the likes of Gaby Moreno, Aimee Mann, Alejandro Escovedo, Session Americana, Amy Correia, Grant-Lee Phillips, and Sarah Borges, and penned songs with Grammy-winners Mann and Lori McKenna, Kirk steps into the spotlight on vocals and guitar, leading his crack five-piece band.
Altitude's lush-but-understated production results in an album that 'shines a golden melodic light on the darker corners of the human soul, beguiling the listener onto a higher plane.
It’s a combination of penetrating intelligence and unapologetic catchiness that’s rare, but shouldn’t be.' (The Daily Vault)

Amy Correia - An accomplished songwriter and singer with five album releases — including her Capitol Records debut Carnival Love and the multiple Independent Music Award-winning You Go Your Way — Amy Correia “creates hypnotic, homespun songs that draw from such influences as folk, pop, blues and French-style cabaret...[She has] a mesmerizing voice and a lyrical dexterity akin to Bob Dylan’s.”(Guitar World, Acoustic).
Accompanying herself on baritone ukulele and guitar, she has performed with great artists like John Hiatt, Richard Thompson, Chrissie Hynde, and Marc Cohn.
Her latest work As We Are “embodies the best of Correia’s artistic abilities, serving heaps of soul” (Under the Radar) backed by a powerhouse of Boston-based talent — producer/bassist Kimon Kirk, guitarist Mike Castellana and drummer Andy Plaisted.
She currently lives in Los Angeles.
