ABOUT MEGAN BURTT

Megan Burtt has returned with Witness, her first solo album since. The Colorado-based performer, a past Kerrville NewFolk Competition winner who also performed with the all-redhead roots band Gingerbomb, had been working on the project for years, but hit delays with illness and false starts. She really began to unlock new levels in her songwriting when she decided to stop dancing around what she really wanted to say. “I discovered that’s a side of myself I like as a songwriter.,” she says. “It’s become a sensibility that I know how to rest in.”

The results were a long time coming, but they’re worth the wait. With unfailing honesty and vulnerability, Burtt—who self-produced the project—wrestles with weighty topics like the burden of her own aspirations (“Drugstore Brand”), generational trauma (“Little Girls”), and the end of an important relationship (“Unfinished Business,” “Good for You”). She also does it while mixing in doses of groove and pop smarts that make the lyrics hit even harder. Ultimately, even though she addresses thorny topics, there’s a sense of hope on Witness. “These songs are more real because hidden in them is the belief that there’s a silver lining,” Burtt says. “I’m not ignorant to the shitstorm you have to endure to get there. I am a little jaded, but I am really hopeful too. I enjoy the pursuit of it all.”

ABOUT Lauren Frihauf

Lauren Frihauf grew up on a 1300-acre farm an hour and a half outside of Denver, CO. Alongside her homeschooling, Lauren pursued her passion for music by taking singing and piano lessons from a young age. While the charm of farm life was undeniable, the solitude that accompanied it weighed heavy at times. Because of this, she was overjoyed to find a vibrant community at the School of Rock Aurora. Here, her talents rapidly flourished as she began touring with the School of Rock AllStars in 2018.

Not long after, Lauren’s voice drew national attention on NBC’s “The Voice” Season 19, under the mentorship of Gwen Stefani and John Legend, where critics praised her unique vocal style and emotional depth.

Cut to today, Lauren Frihauf has become a uniquely captivating figure in Denver’s music scene. Influenced by artists like Nai Palm of Hiatus Kaiyote, Joni Mitchell, and Norah Jones, Lauren blends her poetic storytelling with folk and neo-soul elements to create a distinctive and captivating sound experience.

Lauren’s recent accolades include being featured on NPR Music’s 2022 Tiny Desk ‘Top Shelf’, performing at Dripping Springs Songwriter Festival 2023, Panama City Songwriter’s Festival 2022,2023, placing top 3 in the Red Lodge songwriting competition 2023, 2nd in the Al Johnson Performing Songwriter Contest 2023, and becoming a finalist in the Grassy Hill Emerging Artist Showcase 2024.
