Natalie Joly
Performing October 21st
Natalie Joly is an award winning singer songwriter born just outside of Boston, currently based in the music capital of the world, Nashville TN. With influences ranging from The Beatles and Aerosmith, to Taylor Swift and Bruno Mars, Natalie’s music doesn’t quite fit into any one genre. Raised on classic rock, her music is drum and electric guitar heavy, donning harmonies that fill any room, with compelling lyrics relatable to all ages. Her music is a combination of rock, country and pop… but in her own words, “you can call my music whatever you want, as long as you sing along!”
During 2020 while being locked down due to the pandemic, Natalie took the time to really explore her creativity beyond just songwriting, but as a producer. She has always been the primary writer on her songs and was ready to learn how to get all of her ideas down for the instrumentation and arrangement as well. This resulted in her first self-produced single, “Running Circles”, which was released in November of 2020, accompanied by a home-video style music video chronicling Natalie’s time at home during the lockdowns.
At 14 years old Natalie began playing out at bars and restaurants, garnering herself an expansive resume in the 12 years she has been a full-time gigging musician. As she played shows of all kinds, behind the scenes Natalie was honing her craft as a songwriter, performer and producer. She released her first self-titled album at 15, a subsequent album at 17 called “Paint the Picture” (which was celebrated by a sold out release show at her high school auditorium), and another EP at 19 years old with 4 corresponding music videos. Since 2017 she has released her music as singles, having her 2018 song “You Oughta Know” win Song of the Year at the 2019 New England Music Awards.
Over the years Natalie has gained a large social media following, with over 52,000 Instagram Followers and over 8,200 Youtube Subscribers. Her Youtube channel has reached over 1,000,000 views, and her Instagram videos have accumulated well over 10 million views.
GARRETT HENDRICKS
Performing September 16th & October 21st
Garrett describes his music as Northwest Americana, a genre that paints the roots and soul of classic country and other American music styles across the vivid landscapes and waterways between the Cascade and Olympic mountains of Washington state where he was born and raised. It’s the kind of music one could expect to find played around a campfire in the backwoods.
With intrinsic influence coming from the land he grew up in, Garrett set out across the country to ply and develop his trade in Nashville, TN. There he studies his musical heroes like Johnny Cash and John Prine, who helped make Nashville the songwriting presence it is, in order to cut his own section of trail in the American songscape.
