“There is beauty in the power of all aspects of the band’s music, but it’s balanced by just how damn fun it is…” – Red Line Roots

Noble Dust creates dynamic, lyrically-driven progressive folk pop, blending ethereal vocal harmonies with intricate horn and string melodies. The group received a grant from Club Passim’s Iguana Music Fund to complete their first full length album, And The Tide Rises released in April of 2018. They have since shared stages big and small (a sold-out Club Passim, City Winery Boston MainStage, The Grey Eagle) with Christopher Paul Stelling, Adam Ezra Group, and Session Americana. They are recording their second LP, A Picture for a Frame at Dimension Sound Studios.

Ollella’s career as a musician started early, when she sang before she could talk. Trained as a classical cellist since the age of nine, the Seattle indie-folk musician blends her technical background with authoritative vocals, live-looping, and improvisation. Pulling on influences like Florence + the Machine, Cat Power, and Zoë Keating, she blends the acoustic with the contemporary, folk with pop, and tenacity with softness. Her playing has been featured in films screened at Film Festivals such as Sundance and Aspen Film Fest; on recordings with others, including Grammy-winning artist Peter Kater; and has shared stages with popular Americana acts such as the Shook Twins and Rising Appalachia.
