Under his moniker Orillia, Andrew Marczak follows the long tradition of folk music’s more progressive stewards, commanding audiences with his unique bracing tenor and skeletal arrangements. His debut self-titled record, which was tracked completely live, acoustic, and straight to tape at Jamdek Recording Studios in his hometown of Chicago, marries the quotidian poetry of Sam Shepard with the direct, sparkling twang of 90s alt-country.
Orillia has been featured on Sirius XM’s Outlaw Country Channel, NPR’S Great American Folk Show, Holler Country, The Chicago Tribune, and radio stations across the US, Canada, and Germany.
Named after the puffball mushroom, Calvatia is an independent trio – sometimes quartet when playing live – that met in college. The band consists of Jonah Lazo (Vocals, Guitar), Jonah Roeper (Keys), and Ethan Hansen (Swiss Army man). Freshwater folk.
