Trained in traditional Tuvan music since childhood, they formed a traditional ensemble and won multiple awards for traditional throat singing, both as an ensemble and as individuals. They have borrowed newi deas that mesh well with the sound and feel of traditional
Tuvan music, but they have never sacrificed the integrity of their own heritage in an effort to make their music more hip.

Nathan James w/ Missy Anderson & Her One-Man Band
American Blues Soul
Doors: 6pm • $12/adv • $15/doors
Nathan James is a true original American roots music artist who makes a lot of sound pickin' and scratchin' on his handmade invention of washboard guitar; stomping out time on a box made of old fence boards; all while singing and blowing harmonica to his own original music. But aside from all of these tools of the trade, his main focus is well crafted songwriting.
Born in Detroit, Michigan and raised in New York City, multiple award nominee, Missy Andersen is a dynamic and one-of-a-kind soul blues singer. Missy Andersen and her accompanist/husband, Heine Andersen are a tenacious duo which showcases the couple's individual and combined talents. In the absence of other instruments, listeners find a greater appreciation for Missy's gospel-tinged vocals and Heine's Blues & Americana inspired guitar work. "If a voice as rich, supple, and vibrant as Missy Andersen's could come out of a bottle – not that it hasn't been tried – every blues singer would be dripping deep soul." – DAVE RUBIN, Author & Journalist.
