Dovekeeper w/ Holly Haebig and Rachel Raven
Milwaukee musician Yonat Piva is a singer-songwriter guitarist who performs under the stage name Dovekeeper. Her songs vary from introspective 70s AM radio singer-songwriter acoustic tracks, contemporary blues rockers to world and roots soundscapes.
Before returning home to Milwaukee, she was performing around the San Fransico Bay Area since 2011 as ‘Yonat & Her Muse’ – a folk-soul ensemble reminiscent of Norah Jones meets Adele and has shared the stage with artists such as post rock musician Fink and singer-songwriter Foy Vance. In 2014 they played TEDx Berkeley to an audience of 1400 at Zellerbach Hall.
Holding Yonat’s songs together at the core is always an intrinsic message of self-experience, reflection, and empowerment. She returns to the stage in 2024 to weave new music with the well-loved songs written over a decade ago.
Holly Haebig plays music from the heart, for and with people of all ages inviting them to reflect on life’s complexities as well as celebrate life’s endless possibilities.
She is best know for inviting audiences to sing, dance and play along to familiar and original songs, building a sense of a joyful musical community.
Born and raised in Milwaukee, she’s a proud MPS alumni where music was valued as much as science and math. Over the past 20+ years she has played regularly with well known groups such as One Drum, Kirtan with Ragani, Devanation, Painted Caves, De La Buena, Urban Empress and The Urbanites, The Earth Poets and Musicians, Express Yourself Milwaukee and a popular duo with her brother-in-law Jeff Bray.
In 2011 she released “In Love We Trust” which can be found on iTunes and YouTube
Rachel Raven has performed in many venues from coffeehouses to clubs and theater. She is also a busker, having performed the streets of Europe, New York, Chicago,California and Boston.
“When I sing, people know it. A matrix of sound, emotion, and serenity weaves through the house: singer to audience, audience to singer, and all to one another. The external disappears and my voice becomes one with my heart. It is the sum and soul of who I am as a performer.” Covers from Janis Joplin, Joni Mitchell, Etta James, The American songbook, Dolly Parton, Neil Young, many more and an abundance of original compositions
