Fox and Bones

Sweet delicate folk duo

Fox and Bones

Scott Gilmore and Sarah Vitort are Fox and Bones-energetic offbeat folksters with a retro pop-rock bent who have been setting the world alight with a handclapping, foot-stomping good time since 2016. The indomitable duo has brought their optimistic Americana polish to international stages shared with the likes of Rayland Baxter, The Dead South, ZZ Ward, The Talbott Brothers and Horse Feathers among others.

At Fox and Bones' core is an unrelenting backbone that represents honest-to-goodness folklore dreams, wrapped in the delectable shine of a duo with a combined 25+ years of songwriting experience. They're akin to Lake Street Dive, Nathaniel Rateliff, and Shovels & Rope as a relatable, soul-stirring, retro-tinged folk-rock outfit that knows how to shatter a crowd's hearts and put them back together all in the same utterance. Scott's powerhouse grit and Sarah's resonant tone combine with A-grade songwriting chops to create accessible, relatable, and often heart-rending folk-rock music.

Their hardworking artistic output has earned them first place at the 2023 Tucson Folk Festival songwriting contest and second place in the International Acoustic Music Awards, amongst other accolades. The duo also founded Portland's Folk Festival: an annual, three-night celebration of folk and roots music at the iconic Crystal Ballroom.

Paul McDonald and the Mourning Doves

Paul McDonald and the Mourning Doves

Paul McDonald's voice is immediately recognizable and impossible to ignore. Often compared to legends like Rod Stewart and Bob Dylan, the poetic story-driven narratives and deeply catchy hooks in his music are delivered by a raspy yet refined voice reminiscent of another era that demands to be heard right now. He pulls off the rare feat of being a poet, visual artist, songwriter, adamant performer, and a powerful vocalist. Paul's hope is to spread peace, love, and unity through his music. Connection & community through song. He's currently writing for his next album and planning to tour extensively in 2024.
