ABOUT MARIELLE KRAFT
When you hear Marielle Kraft’s music or experience her candid live shows, you feel as though you already know her. The indie pop singer/songwriter, now based in Nashville, displays craftsmanship beyond her years, following suit to artists like Shawn Mendes, Maisie Peters, and Taylor Swift. Self-taught, the Rhode Island native began playing guitar at 16 and soon writing songs that strike chords with listeners everywhere. Her gift for storytelling is evident through her use of salient detail, raw emotion, and poignant word choice to describe moments “exactly as they feel.”
ABOUT LAROY STREAT
Laroy Streat got his music career started on none other than a sports radio station called WEEI. Interning for what was the Dale & Holley Show, Executive producers named Ben and Andy heard him rap once and things were never the same after.
