Singer/Songwriters Lillie Syracuse and Hannah Kaminer present a night of original songs and stories in the round.
Hannah Kaminer is a folk/Americana artist based in Asheville, NC. Raised in small towns in western North Carolina, she fuses echoes of Appalachian traditions with wistful, Americana-style songwriting. Her clear, yearning voice and unusual melodies are a haunting pairing with lyrics about loss, love, and home.
Performing solo and with her band around the Southeast, Kaminer has released two full albums, Acre by Acre (2015) and Heavy Magnolias (2018). Both albums were supported by listeners through Kickstarter campaigns, and Heavy Magnolias was also funded in part by a Regional Artist Project Grant, from a coalition of NC arts councils. Kaminer co-produced Heavy Magnolias with award-winning engineer Julian Dreyer.
Kaminer’s songwriting has been recognized in the finals of the MerleFest Chris Austin Songwriting Contest (2019) as well as in Asheville’s citywide Brown Bag Songwriting Competition. Kaminer is currently working on a third recording project.
