ABOUT THE EVENT

Amid the excitement and ambiguity of a new start, Paige Anderson of Two Runner poses poignant questions on Porchlight, her resolute and tenderhearted new record. Beautiful string arrangements, intimate confessionals, and rollicking hymns for the lost and determined, here is an artist who’s been on the road consistently since early childhood - with persistence and commitment to her craft clearly in no short supply.

Porchlight offers tunes that are warm and steady, relatable nostalgia twinged with the ache of needing to move on. The result aptly links the uncertainty of letting go and simultaneous resolve of someone faced with no other choice. A destiny perhaps sealed from an early age, as Anderson began her touring career in a six-person family bluegrass band from the age of nine. Now nearly a decade into her own music career, she’s seen stages warming up for Sierra Ferrell, Watchhouse and Molly Tuttle.

Although change often comes en masse, it is surreal and jarring to start again. Paige Anderson offers Two Runner as solace and escape for those needing to reset, with sage comfort and kindness from her own accounts, the way all great songwriters do. Porchlight is perhaps best summed up by the chorus in track five, ‘Mocking Crow’: “Wake up tomorrow, there’s no in between - your heart knows what you need.” A reckoning, a stark look in the mirror, hope, and forward movement against all odds.

Riddy Arman is a Montana-based singer-songwriter whose music is shaped by stark storytelling, solitude, and the emotional weight of life lived on the move.

Carried by a voice that feels both weathered and deeply intimate, her songs balance grit with vulnerability, blending stripped down country and folk traditions with unflinching emotional honesty.

After gaining widespread attention through her viral Western AF performance, Arman released her debut album through La Honda Records and quickly established herself as one of the most compelling emerging voices in independent country music.

Currently touring new material and bringing her deeply intimate live show across the country, Riddy Arman delivers the kind of performance that leaves a room silent in all the right ways.
