Coyote Girls & Desert Hollow — Secret Garden Concert

Coyote Girls & Desert Hollow bring moody folk harmonies to the Secret Garden. Sonoma Community Center, Friday, Sept 18, 6:30-8:30pm. $25.

Coyote Girls and Desert Hollow perform in a special intimate garden concert. Desirae Garcia was once a part of our Sonoma Ceramics family (still family, just farther away!). She returns to us from Maui for a special concert in the Center’s Secret Garden.

A bar with non-alcoholic and alcoholic drinks will be available.


Coyote Girls

Coyote Girls is a new moody folk duet featuring Nicole Olney of Desert Hollow and Desirae Garcia of the Haunted Windchimes. These well-traveled women share their songs of love, travel, loss, motherhood, and the poetry of day-to-day life. Their crooning and simple songs paint timeless contemporary folk sounds, inspired by the likes of the Carter Family and Hank Williams. Their haunting harmonies cast a siren call, welcoming closer all who choose to listen.

Desert Hollow

Desert Hollow is where the open road meets the back porch. Blending the spirit of their roots in the California desert and West Virginia countryside, Maui-based traveling folk duo Xander Hitzig and Nicole Olney weave dusty harmonies, rootsy rhythms, and a touch of cosmic twang into songs that wander through heartache, hope, and the strange beauty of belonging everywhere and nowhere at once. Whether busking on the sidewalk for hundreds outside of Hardly Strictly in San Francisco, or playing their packed at-home Thursday night residency, the Desert Hollow live show leaves an impact. Having recently been featured in Rolling Stone following their performance at Healing Appalachia this past summer, Desert Hollow has been slowly building anticipation for their newly released full-length album, Music for the Folks. The much-awaited record delivers their signature blend of heartfelt storytelling, rootsy instrumentation, and folk music – music for the folks.
