HUNTER PEEBLES
Hunter Peebles brings a rich, reflective voice to the Country and Americana scene—one that echoes the grit of John Prine and the soul of George Jones. Based in St. Louis, Peebles writes songs that dig deep into life’s messy beauty—love and loss, grit and grace—delivered with a storyteller’s eye and a voice that rings true.
Known for his work fronting Hunter Peebles & The Moonlighters, Peebles shines just as brightly on his own, blending timeless country influences with modern songwriting sensibility. His solo sets showcase the heart behind the music: stripped-down arrangements, poignant lyrics, and a voice that can break your heart and mend it in the same breath.

SHANNA IN A DRESS
Shanna in a Dress is the folk-pop singer-songwriter you didn’t know you needed—part comedian, part poet, and all heart.

Whether she’s crooning about heartbreak, feminism, or her refusal to wear pants, Shanna takes audiences on an emotional rollercoaster—and somehow manages to land the punchline and the gut-punch in the same breath.
A blend of John Prine’s storytelling, Ingrid Michaelson’s indie sweetness, and a dash of Phoebe Buffay's lovable chaos, Shanna’s songs are delivered with a voice that’s warm, clear, and unmistakably her own. Whether she’s on stage at the Bluebird Café or pedaling across the country in a sundress, Shanna in a Dress is an artist who’s impossible to forget—and honestly, why would you want to?
