"A dusty neo-traditional folk duo comprised of singer-songwriters–Jenna English and Michael Stanton Armstrong.
Based out of the rolling hills of Springfield, Missouri, Roxie & The Moon King are known for their rich harmonies steeped in earnest storytelling and poetic lyrics. Their intimate sound blends traditional folk with modern indie-pop roots and paints from a broad musical palette.
Captivating audiences across the midwest, they deliver a deeply intimate and memorable performance whether from the corner of a coffee shop, or on the stage of a large festival. The two have a profound musical chemistry that radiates in their lyrics, performances, and deeply resonates with their fans. "

Interest Survey - A new community chorus could be starting in Northwest Arkansas, and we would like to see if there is enough interest to make it happen. There is still information to plan as we are in the beginning stages, so your feedback is important. Please share this with anyone interested in being part of a community chorus. This will be a non-profit organization, but there will be a small fee to join. Rehearsals would be in the choir room at the Northwest Arkansas Community College (NWACC) campus.

Information:
Weekly or biweekly rehearsals
2 hours rehearsal
Keep the cost as low as possible, but a small fee to join.
2 concerts - fall/winter and spring
Concerts - 45 minutes - 1 hour
Repertoire - Something for everyone. (Classical Choral, Contemporary Choral, Show Tunes, Jazz, and Barbershop)

This is a true community chorus - there will be no audition. You don't have to read music, but it will be helpful.

This is not the official sign-up. I will continue to share further information only if you are interested.

We start up fall 25!

"Jacob Furr is an award-winning songwriter, multi
instrumentalist, collaborator, and genre fluid artist from Fort
Worth, Texas. His work blends West Coast folk with the dusty
expanses of West Texas, and explores themes and stories of
love, loss, grief, and recovery. He has toured the US since
2014. Furr has opened for Peter Case, James McMurty, Kelly
Willis, Shovels and Rope, and Over The Rhine, among others.
Though Furr’s most significant work is a three album cycle over
10 years about the loss of his wife to brain cancer in 2013, His
songwriting paints pictures of thunderstorms on the Llano
Estacado, cemeteries of lost life boat sailors in California, and
the intimate feelings and details of recovery and healing. All of
these stories and themes are blended into songs that range
from towering electric anthems of lost stars, to intimate, solo
work that recalls Bert Jansch and early Joh Ritter.
Furr has long been a strong advocate of independent DIY
music. He won the Bluelight Live Songwriting Competition in
2015, Fort Worth Weekly Best Songwriter and Best Folk Artist
2015/2023, and is a founding member of Hear Fort Worth, as
well as being major supporter of music programming and
entrepreneur incubator, Amplify817, with The Fort Worth Public
Library."

"Little Sin and the Coulda Bins were formed after Kimberly Nye’s original song Little Sin received a nod for 2nd runner-up in the 77th Original Ozark Folk Festival Songwriter Competition (Eureka Springs, 2024). The band’s name--taken from 2 of Kim’s original songs LIttle Sin and Could Have Been Home--describes the fun and upbeat nature of their live performances. Accompanied by long-time Southwest Missouri singer-songwriters Tom Soutee and Luke Janes, one listener described their music as “folksy, fun, and a good mix of music.”
Kim (lead vocals, light percussion) began writing songs several years ago, inspired by the ups and downs of life. Tom (acoustic guitar, vocals) started rocking and rolling in the live music scene at age 15, and Luke (guitars, keyboards, vocals) has been part of numerous live bands while he continues teaching music both publicly and privately.
Little Sin and the Coulda Bins is a Country/Rock/Folk Trio you must not miss! "
