JOHN CRAIGIE 
For over a decade, John Craigie has made music that brings people in, not with spectacle but with sincerity and songs that feel like conversations.

His new album I Swam Here, out February 6, 2026 on Zabriskie Point Records, was written and produced by Craigie and recorded between New Orleans and Astoria. Seven tracks were cut at Deslonde St Studios with musicians handpicked by Sam Doores of The Deslondes, including Howe Pearson, Max Bien Khan, Jonny Campos, and a guest appearance from Desiree Cannon. Longtime collaborator Anna Moss appears across much of the record. The remaining tracks were finished at the Rope Room in Astoria, carrying over the same spirit and palette. The cover art, painted by Brittany Schall, nods to the design of mid century samba and jazz records.

The album’s singles trace the path of its making. “Fire Season,” engineered by Bart Budwig, was one of the first songs written and features Cooper Trail, Nevada Sowle, Luke Ydstie, and Jamie Greenan. “Dry Land” was reworked in Astoria after early New Orleans sessions didn’t feel right. “Edna Strange,” inspired by Marty Robbins, is the only track where Craigie plays steel string acoustic, with Max Bien Khan on nylon string leads and a trio vocal arrangement in place of Moss’s harmonies.

Following 2024’s Pagan Church with TK  The Holy Know-Nothings, which spent six weeks at #1 on the Americana Albums chart, I Swam Here feels both expansive and intimate, shaped by the musical history of the Gulf Coast and the stillness of the Pacific Northwest.
Craigie remains a tireless live performer, touring throughout the U.S., Europe, and Australia, appearing at festivals like Newport Folk, Pickathon, Edmonton Folk Festival, and High Sierra, and sharing the stage with artists such as Langhorne Slim, Sierra Hull, Gregory Alan Isakov, Brett Dennen, and Jack Johnson.

I Swam Here is a grounded, collaborative step forward, blending New Orleans grit with Pacific Northwest quiet, and showing a songwriter still widening the world of his music.

ANTHONY DA COSTA
Anthony da Costa played his first paid gig at 14 in Pleasantville, NY, and by 16 was the youngest-ever winner of the Kerrville and Falcon Ridge Folk Festival songwriting competitions. As a teenager, he toured widely, sharing stages with artists like Loretta Lynn, Judy Collins, Big Thief, and The Milk Carton Kids.

Over the years, he’s become a sought-after guitarist and harmony singer, supporting Sarah Jarosz, Aoife O'Donovan, Molly Tuttle, Yola, and Joy Williams (The Civil Wars). His work has brought him to major stages including the Hollywood Bowl, Bonnaroo, and Newport Folk Festival, plus appearances on Conan and Jimmy Kimmel Live. He has released about a dozen albums and several EPs of his own.

His upcoming album, The No Send Letter, is his 12th and his most personal. Self-produced and recorded between Pleasantville Recording and a barn studio in Virginia, it documents a difficult and transformative breakup. Captured across digital, reel-to-reel, and cassette formats, the album reflects a period of deep healing and renewed connection with his Nashville community, resulting in some of his most emotionally direct and sonically adventurous work.
