He mixes the immediacy of classic songwriting with the intimacy of a quiet conversation with a friend. He was named a Top Shelf finalist in NPR’s Tiny Desk Contest 2024. In the announcement video, Boygenius's Julien Baker said Stefan’s submission "picked the safe combination in my heart" and Robin Hilton, Sr. Producer at NPR music said, "It all came together perfectly.” Stefan’s work has received critical acclaim in publications like Forbes, The Advocate, American Songwriter, among many others. He has also shared the story of his journey through medical mystery and back to music on various podcasts such as This Is Actually Happening and RISK! Through his music, Stefan creates space for people to access a deeper vulnerability. He is open and honest about his experiences with chronic pain, love, loss and his queer journey. Audience members often approach Stefan after shows to share stories from their own lives and tell him how much they connected to a certain song or how a lyric brought them to tears. More recently, Stefan has also begun a viral series of bawdy gay folk songs for social media, continuing to put his queerness in the foreground, but now with a little humor too. How Lucky You Are , Stefan’s first full-length album, will be out in May on Better Company Records with singles rolling out through the winter and spring. Sam Ness  Alongside the Wisconsin Area Music Industry Folk Performer of the Year (2025), Sam Ness is the youngest person to enter the Madison Music Hall Of Fame (for Male Vocalist 2024). Mixing Traditional Folk/Americana roots with an Alternative-Indie feel, with a vault of international busking adventures and more than 1300 shows under his belt, Sam’s catalog is steeped in authenticity. His songs trace the roads he’s walked — from city streets to quiet cabins — always searching for something true. If you’re looking for grit, melody and a voice that moves, Sam’s already on the road.
