The Rebel Eves, Women in the Arts Festival

The Rebel Eves started with a “stars-aligning” type of friendship and musical collaboration. With beginnings in early 2022, the group formed from the love of creativity and the belief that the joy of connection can break down barriers that women have historically been put into in the music industry, society, and religious spaces. Composed of three Michigan bred award winning songwriters, Katie Pederson, Grace Theisen and Jilian Linklater have spent the better part of the last decade writing, touring, and harmonizing across the country with successful solo careers. With Grace and Jilian both coming out as queer in the last couple of years and Katie being a strong ally to the LGBTQIA community, it is incredibly important to the band that the Rebel Eve shows create safe spaces for this community in particular, especially in a world where their rights are being challenged and taken away at lightning speed. They wrote Heaven Without You as a way to reframe and push back on the messaging that heaven is only accessible to certain groups of people they believe heaven can be created right here, right now, no matter who or how you love. In June of 2023 for the single’s release, they partnered with the Tennessee Equality Project, a nonprofit that is working for the equality of the LGBTQIA community in Tennessee through legislation. This year, they will be donating a portion of the proceeds from their merchandise towards the ACLU for the continued fight for the many injustices happening in the United States. With a motto of connection over perfection, in less than two years the band has reached new heights in their collaboration, outselling venues in Michigan and sharing main stages at large independent midwest festivals with national touring acts such as The Wood Brothers, The War & Treaty and The Accidentals. They have played festivals such as BlissFest, Mile of Music, and Sonic Lunch. This summer they will be making their debut appearance at Frederik Meijer Gardens, Wheatland Music Festival and Sisters Folk Festival in Oregon. With record merchandise sales over the last two years, they have quickly won over the hearts of their audiences with their honest storytelling, hair raising harmonies, and compelling lyricism that makes for true listening room moments attendees won’t soon forget. Cultivating moments of vulnerability, laughter, original songs, and incredible 3-part harmonies in their shows, they can promise you will walk away feeling inspired, connected, and hopeful. Their first EP, Shake The Ground, will be out this September. You can hear the first two singles off this album, American Dream and Rebel Eve on all streaming platforms. Their full length album will be out in the spring of 2026. https://www.therebeleves.com/ https://www.witafestival.com/

Quotes about Music of Midwinter “To Warm The Winter Hearth, the latest polyphonic masterpiece by New England vocal quartet Windborne, rolls in as the nights grow ever longer… So let yourself be transported to the crisp, frosty mists of midwinter, and think of all those who have gone before, whistling the same tunes as they strolled home from the pub along a snowy country lane, prepared festive stockings for loved ones, or cosied up by a roaring fire.” -For Folk’s Sake “The rich and emotive a capella vocal harmonies truly warm the cockles on a snowy winter’s morning, expressing the spirit of the solstice and midwinter celebrations throughout the ages. Each song has clearly been carefully chosen to express a different aspect of the winter months, which keeps the listener flowing, through the snowy scenes of the album.”-Folk + Honey “Windborne have an almost supernatural grasp of harmony singing, their songs exudes bright warmth, wit and a sense of celebration delivered with, richness, delicacy and grit – incredible technical skill and a frighteningly accomplished intricacy of arrangement….To Warm the Winter Hearth is an impressive, evocative work of art.” –KLOF “Wonderful vocal harmonies, the instrumental part of the album, which features not only the traditional Windborne banjo and guitar, but also, for example, the Lithuanian traditional instrument kankles, reminiscent of the Russian gusli or Finnish kantele – all together create a unique festive atmosphere, recreated for us by the talented American quartet.” –JazzQuad “The high commitment level and persuasiveness of the four singers – Lauren Breunig, Jeremy Carter-Gordon and Lynn and Will Rowan – runs through everything they do.” -theartsdesk.com http://windbornesingers.com/
