Event Information

Ocie Elliott pen tunes that feel lived-in. You can hear their memories, experiences, and emotions in the dusty acoustic guitars, the sparse production, and the graceful harmonies between Jon Middleton and Sierra Lundy. Their life together plays out in the music as if projected on the big screen of an old small-town theater. Generating tens of millions of streams, earning a JUNO Award nomination, and inciting the applause of American Songwriter, CBC, PopMatters, Atwood Magazine, Exclaim, and many more, both of their spirits shine like never before on their 2022 EP, What Remains [Nettwerk Music Group]. Since we spend so much time together, our life becomes our songs, observes Sierra. We play off each other really well. One of us will start playing around, and the other will join in. We fuel one another in a way we normally wouldnt be fueled by ourselves. We think differently when were together. Sierra makes me a better songwriter, Jon agrees. She makes me want to try different things and experiment with melody. She pushes me to use new words and phrases. Their interplay borders on magical, and it continues to entrance audiences. Ocie initially emerged with EP in 2017. The single I Got You, Honey has amassed over 13 million Spotify streams and counting. Meanwhile, their music appeared multiple times in Greys Anatomy in addition to a sync on NETFLIXs Sweet Magnolias, among others. Following 2019s We Fall In, their 2020 In That Room EP yielded the fan favorite Be Around, which eclipsed 10 million Spotify streams. Remaining prolific during 2021, they unveiled the Slow Tide EP and A Place EP. Of the latter, Exclaim! praised, Each track is a direct invitation to the listener; six strings tugging on the heart, and PopMatters attested, The folk duo create another collection of sweetly understated music. Along the way, they toured with Joshua Radin, Sons of The East, Kim Churchill, and Hollow Coves. During 2022, they garnered a nomination at the JUNO Awards in the category of Breakthrough Artist of the Year, marking their first nod.
