Proper Tea, Ben Larson, Marin Wiltz and Rachel Bard

Proper Tea is a glitter-sparkled groove machine intent on delivering soul-pop-dance fusion to the masses. Comprised of the core songwriting members from upstate funk bands Butter and Mungo’s List, this NYC based quartet is guaranteed to provide any and all music lovers with a proper boogie.

They can be seen playing shows all over the tri-state area, most famously hosting a monthly midnight jam (appropriately named “The Tea Party”) at legendary downtown venue The Bitter End. Their debut album is set to be released in the summer of 2022.

Rachel Bard is a New York based musician and a visual artist. Some say Rachel’s voice has notes of Nico and Björk to it. Others compare her singer-songwriter solo performances to those of Regina Spektor. APPARENTLY, her latest single, is a song for when it rains, and then pours.

Bard recorded the song during the Super Bowl weekend at Miner Street Recordings in Philadelphia with producers Brian McTear and Amy Morrissey, and bandmates Logan Teder and Bastian.

Marin Wilts is a Minnesotan singer-writer living on the East Coast in New York City. Distinctive yet timeless, her melodic style reflects her love of blended genres such as pop, folk, and jazz. Aside from her solo work, she is the songwriter and vocalist for her duo Golden Age, which has amassed over 1.9 million streams on Spotify.

Ben Larsen is a Portland-based singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist based out of Portland, where he developed a reputation for dynamic performances as the front person for the psychedelic newgrass outfit The Giraffe Dodgers, before transitioning to the beloved acoustic roots group, Crow & The Canyon.
