Descending from a lineage of klezmer and jazz musicians, Natalya trained classically in her home state of Massachusetts before moving south in 2004.

In 2023, Zoe & Cloyd released their fifth studio album on Organic Records, entitled Songs of Our Grandfathers.
The project is an homage to their respective bluegrass and klezmer roots and has been enthusiastically received with feature articles in Bluegrass Unlimited, No Depression and the Bluegrass Situation.

EVAN MURPHY - Through years of collaboration and creation, Evan Murphy has earned a reputation as an adventurous and thoughtful songwriter.
Sung with an honest, unadorned folk tenor, and supported by rock solid guitar playing, Evan’s songs connect deeply and directly with listeners.
He was a founding member of acclaimed string band Mile Twelve, and with them played some of the country’s finest music festivals and venues.
In 2019 Evan released his first solo project, a roots rock EP titled Born Again Town.
Brian Carroll of Red Line Roots wrote, “It isn’t often you come across an artist who can excel to a certain level of one genre, never mind entirely separate ones through different projects, but that’s just what Evan Murphy has proven.” Evan lives in Boston where he performs regularly and teaches guitar.
