About Easyfolk Featured
artist

Each year, Easyfolk selects a number of independent artists to feature. These artists will form a close community of support for

one another and build off each other's momentum. Throughout the year, Easyfolk

will provide each artist with community building and performance opportunities. 

"The Featured artist program is about community and the joy of music. it's about finding people

to collaborate with, to share in successes, to commiserate in the difficulties, and to relish

in each other's company"

- Flyover States, 2024 Easyfolk Featured Artist
