Two Castles is the shape-shifting minimalist pop project of songwriter Eric “Slick Rick The Lo-Fi God” Christenson.

D. Janakey is a folk singer and goat-wrangler who transforms his road-worn life stories into heart-stirring, blue collar bangers.

Randy Sinz and Sue Orfield take the stage to sing and play some old country, a little bluegrass and americana, and a few of Sue’s originals.

D. Janakey’s folk songs ride the edge between autobiographical and transcendental story telling. Drawing comparisons to Prine & Paul Simon, these are songs that ring with life. They breath and sway, and then float away. Throughout his nine years of playing live music, Janakey has shared the stage with Dave Simmonette of Trampled by Turtles, Mason Jennings, Ezra Bell, Haley Bonar, Boris Mccutchen, and Them Coulee Boys.
