Jackson, Mississippi native Claire Holley is an eclectic song maker. You might know her as half of the popular duo, Powdercoat. Her music has been featured on NPR's Weekend Edition. Acoustic Guitar Magazine wrote, “Claire Holley is an observer, a romantic reporter from the backyards and front porches of the heartland.” Cej was born in Chicago and raised in Southern California. He taught himself guitar by playing along to Woody Guthrie songs. After a brief stint in college as a music major, he dropped out and joined a rock band. Twelve years, three bands, and three albums later, he returned to school and got a masters degree in social work. He had a 10-year run in the Joel Rafael Band before his debut solo album was released in 2013.
