Angel Corsi is a BIPOC folk/soul artist and former pugilist fighting for his people.
The Colorado-based songwriter's style takes the listeners through contemplative vignettes of humans that have to navigate a range of topics such as, "belonging", "childhood trauma", "forgiving yourself", "systemic and politically charged oppression" and "finding true love" in all of it's forms.
Angel channels his fighting spirit in each performance. Offering to break his heart & soul wide open in listening rooms and storyteller house concerts across the United States, UK, and Canada.
Angel's authenticity is immediately felt through tales of his complicated past and cultural clash of life experiences with hard people and soft souls. He brings his empathy and intensity to every performance and whether he is screaming and wailing with his electric guitar that has earned him the moniker of a "Chicano Bruce Springsteen" or bringing the emotional depth and closeness of a weathered but determined troubadour with his acoustic that nods to contemporary Americana artists like Jason Isbell or David Ramirez. Angel's biting and colorful lyric writing and straightforward musical approach proudly carries the torch for traditional folk, 60s soul, 70s heartland rock. That's what happens when you grow up listening to Springsteen, Bob Dylan, Sam Cooke, and Los Lobos.
Ingrid Avison is a Colorado based singer-songwriter who believes in music and songwriting as spell-casting. A superb vocalist, Ingrid brings a subtle tremble in her voice that is pure and grounded while lifting into a full throated wail almost effortlessly. Ingrid lives in a world of secrets; as a desert wanderer she discovers them, as a therapist she holds them, and as a writer she confesses them, letting you in on the raw, intimate details of what it means to be truly alive today. Her songs blend catchy melodies, insightful and provocative lyrics and biting social commentary.
Ingrid is no stranger to heartache and she gives voice to those feelings. In a recent interview Ingrid shares, “Having my dad suddenly die when I was a kid has shaped so much of who I am, and it’s not possible for me to leave it out of my songwriting. It’s like saying you’re gonna build a car without an engine. You’re gonna get nowhere fast…so whether it’s a break up song or a dead dad song, grief is going to show up. But on the flip side, the only way that I survived that experience as a kid was to eventually laugh at the absurdity of life and reclaim my joy as a griever and as a woman finding her place in the world.
