Blair Borax is a singer-songwriter who writes tender folk-pop songs to make you feel less alone. “With rich lyrics and a voice like molasses,” poet Juniper Klatt says, “Blair Borax makes music that moves you to the heart of being human, offers you a warm cup of tea, and invites you to stay a while.”
With vocal stylings reminiscent of 1920s jazz, songwriting that is unafraid to tackle the taboo, and pop melodies that stay with you for days, Blair Borax has something special to offer. She conjures a vocal charm somewhere in between Regina Spektor and First Aid Kit, wordsmithing inspired by the songwriting greats like John Prine, and moody vulnerability like Haley Heynderickx and Big Thief’s Adrienne Lenker.
After releasing her first EP ‘everything is light work’ in May of 2021, Blair released her debut full-length album “Keep Walking” in June 2022. “Keep Walking” will take you on an emotional journey about moving forward with your head held high, beyond trauma and heartache. It is the perfect companion to help you keep walking too. She is working on her sophomore record, “Tender Lately” this year.
---------------------------------
Monica Parshotam is a singer-songwriter and keyboardist based in the Seattle area with a style that touches on alternative R&B and indie pop with a jazzy twist. Her songs are introspective and reflective with a clever edge. As a performer, she commands the stage with what can only be described as “whimsical and powerful effervescence.”
Monica has been a frequent player in the Seattle scene as the frontwoman and one of the songwriters of the local neo soul-infused band, Hard Maybe. Nearly a lifelong musician, Monica began playing piano in the first grade and writing her own songs when she was under ten years old. Through her music, Monica hopes to deepen the connection we have with ourselves and each other through song, performance and storytelling by reimagining the cultural expectations and experiences many of us share.
