ABOUT THE ARTISTS | COVENHOVEN

Covenhoven is internationally recognized indie artist Joel Van Horne, a multi-instrumental singer-songwriter whose rich harmonies, reedy baritone, and commanding falsetto have found a home with critics and fans since 2013.

​

Through 5 full-length albums and 2 EPs Covenhoven has forged a signature style; layered acoustic arrangements that roll with momentum into orchestral peaks, accompanied by lyrics that contrast hard-won wisdom with the inherent hope of the natural world—from Big Sur to his native Colorado. Westword  called Covenhoven's latest album, The Color of the Dark (released April 2025), "a masterpiece of lyrical excellence."

​

Covenhoven’s live performances capture the spirit of his recordings—whether its conjuring cascading loops in his solo shows or backed by a full band—Covenhoven’s sound fills the breadth of outdoor spaces, auditoriums, and club stages.

​

Regularly touring the United States, Covenhoven has shared the stage with Grammy winners and nominees S.Carey (Bon Iver), Jose Gonzalez, Gregory Alan Isakov, and John Paul White (Civil Wars). Covenhoven has also performed with genre-bending artists Leif Vollebekk, Lord Huron, Joshua James, Blind Pilot, Glen Philips, Esme Patterson, John Craigie, Daniel Rodriguez (Elephant Revival), Shook Twins, Reed Foehl, Rainbow Girls, Joan Shelley and a host of others.

​

Covenhoven songs have been streamed 7 million times and reached over 15 million people through television shows including: 13 Reasons Why, Nashville, Teen Wolf, Home Before Dark, Ordinary Joe, Flaked, Kevin Probably Saves the World, and Private Eyes—Canada’s most watched show for 5 years.

ABOUT THE ARTISTS | ROMA RANSOM

Grace and Gordon create a truly special musical adventure. Her siren's voice pulls you in with its ethereal elegance and sincerity. Her masterful artistry of the violin is stunning, and the rich variety of tunes they bring to life transport you from your seat to what feels like an old world experience. His command of the many instruments he plucks from the stage during their show is nothing short of fantastic! From flute, guitar, and bass to Saxophone, it was wild! The way they evolve a song on stage exhibits their incredible chemistry and feels so raw and honest. These two beautiful humans come together and in the joining of talents and passion create a larger energy, like that of a much bigger band, and yet retain the clarity and allure of the dance of two instruments. I kept thinking of them as the Siren and the Storm. Forces of nature and myth.​
