Christen Napier is originally a visual artist and her approach to music has always been quite visual as well. Being self-taught, she has put an experimental twist on traditional styles. She enjoys playing many instruments (including a 1920's Royal typewriter) but her main instrument is the banjo. Lately she has been immersing herself in Celtic music and playing the banjolin.

Christen is a member of the chamber folk trio of ladies, www.soundcloud.com/Cutleri. She also plans to continue banjo/tabla collaborations with percussionist www.soundcloud.com/Tem-noon.  Most recently she has been performing with www.soundcloud.com/knife-throwers-assistance, based in NYC. But that's a while ago now...

Christen is also a songwriter. Her debut solo album has been "in progress" forever. Maybe one day it will get recorded.

Her most important love and inspiration is her 7 year old daughter Maisie who is a budding musician herself.  Collaborations are on the horizon...

Kezia Elijah Deming was a Sonoma County Independent Hip Hop/ Reggae Artist. He began his musical career at age eleven as a songwriter, singer and sound engineer.  Kezia went on to create several tracks & albums from 2012 to 2022 as Koastal Orbit, Left Wing and Big Raven. His growing local fame in the underground rap scene propelled him into the Sonoma County spotlight.  Kezia Deming was a talented rising star who passed away in 2023 at age 27.  He was loved by many!  I have big plans for my son’s music (my music) going forward.
