Windborne

Hailed as “the most exciting vocal group in a generation,” internationally acclaimed vocalensemble Windborne is known for their stunningly powerful arrangements and their ability to shift effortlessly between drastically different styles of traditional music within the same concert.

While their musical knowledge spans many continents and cultures, they remain deeply rooted in the American singing traditions they have embodied since childhood. Praised for "the purity of their voices, strength of their material, and attention to detail in their arrangements," Lynn Rowan, Will Rowan, Lauren Breunig, and Jeremy Carter-Gordon share a vibrant energy onstage - their connection to each other and to the music clearly evident. They educate as they entertain, telling stories about the music and explaining the characteristics and stylistic elements of the traditions in which they sing.

The group sprang to wider recognition after singing a 19th century protest song outside Trump Tower which went viral, gaining over a million views. As groups and venues all over the country started reaching out to them, the group went full time in Dec 2017. Having sung everywhere from roadside yurts to 2,200 seat theaters, Windborne remains connected to their roots, regularly teaching educational programs, participatory workshops, and being invited as guest lecturers at universities. Seasoned teachers and song-leaders, they delight groups young and old with enthusiastic, clear, and nuanced instruction for musicians of all levels-regardless of background, language, or experience! Their performance never fails to awe their audiences, presenting something truly unique, and yet universal: the power, diversity, and innovation possible within the human voice, joined in harmony.
