🎤 ARTIST BIOS
Chances R Good
Hailing from Colorado, Chances R Good is an innovative artist in what can be described as metaphysical R&B — blending soulful rhythms with a spiritual essence.
His music explores themes of growth, nature, spirituality, and cosmic connection, weaving classic and contemporary influences into a sound that moves and inspires.
I,Star
From the heart of Appalachia, I,Star rises...
This dynamic husband-wife duo features emcee/producer Truth-I Manifest and singer/songwriter Aradhana Silvermoon. Their “folk-hop” fusion flows with potent lyricism, angelic melodies, and a mission rooted in Earth stewardship, ancient wisdom, and love amidst it all.
The Freedom Family Band
Matteo and Katrina Lilly of The Freedom Family are incredible musicians, song weavers, and community leaders.
Their music touches the heart deeply and they inspire freedom and creativity for all. The space they hold is refreshingly authentic and profoundly special. Their raw humanness weaves so beautifully with their beautiful voices. They sing together in perfect harmony and flow in their music with such depth and passion. They defy genre and embody something so ancient and special that it can’t quite be labeled, but it is felt deeply.

Numinous the Bard
By day, Michael Numinous stewards the land and produces events at Hawk & Hawthorne. By night — around the fire — he channels and hones his bardic craft for hip hop–infused storytelling, spoken word, and freestyle invocations.
Raised by writers and shaped short stories & by hip hop since childhood, his verses blend freestyle flow with mythic roots and permaculture truths. Pre-written or off-the-dome, his sets are living prayer — grounded, spontaneous, and straight from the heart.
🌱 About the Hawk & Hawthorne
A regenerative event venue & permaculture community just north of Asheville, NC.
Housed in a retrofitted heritage tobacco barn amidst fruit trees, gardens, spring-fed ponds & mountain views, The Hawk has been a community gathering point for over 30 years — hosting weddings, workshops & intimate concerts in a magical Appalachian valley.
