Abby Posner has been a working musician in Los Angeles for the past 18+ years. She is best known for her ability to play nearly any instrument that she can get her hands on, twisting genres, and pushing the boundaries of folk, roots, electronic, and pop music, making her “Genre Fluid.” She can play a fierce lead-blues guitar solo or throw down a complex Earl Scruggs banjo riff. She plays drums, mandolin, or bass while using her looping pedal. Abby puts passion and soul into everything she does, and her live shows are simply mesmerizing. Her energy is comparable to Chris Thile of Nickel Creek and The Lumineers. Her songs range from intimate, haunting folk songs, to upbeat festival/dance your pants off hits. Abby has gained major recognition in the LA music scene, opening for PHRANC, Sierra Hull, and Dustbowl Revival. The CalArts music graduate has composed and produced music for commercials/TV, films, and radio shows all over the globe. She has released multiple albums under her name and under Abby & The Myth, and she recently released her first full length album titled Second Chances.
“Posner is the real deal, she writes and performs with the best of them. A shining star in the LA music scene.”

Lizzie No is a folk-rock band, a singer-songwriter, guitarist, harpist, and a revolutionary artist in the Black Womanist tradition. You could say that she makes “Americana” music, in that her work pulls from the rhythms and traditions of blues, folk, and country, not unlike the artists to whom she’s most often compared: Allison Russell, Rhiannon Giddens, and Adia Victoria. But her collaborations with Brian Dunne, Pom Pom Squad, and Domino Kirke display an undeniable indie influence. Rolling Stone named Lizzie one of their “Future 25” artists of the year, and her country ballad, “The Heartbreak Store,” was nominated for International Song of the Year at the Americana UK awards. Lizzie has toured with Iron & Wine, Adia Victoria, Ron Pope, Sarah Shook and the Disarmers, and has showcased at festivals like Newport Folk Fest, Americanafest, South by Southwest, and Hardly Strictly Bluegrass. She is a winner of the American Songwriter Magazine Lyrics Contest. Their acclaimed genre-defying third studio album, Halfsies, was released in 2024.
“Lizzie No is without a doubt one of the most exhilarating figures to emerge in the folk music scene in recent memory.”
