With harmonies derived only from the genetic intricacies of a brother-sister duo, Zak and Lena Kendall have evolved from homespun, family-oriented folk music to deliver roots-revival styled sophistication for a hyper-conscious generation. The Kendalls, beloved within their quickly expanding fandom as
GoldenOak, were raised in part by the western Maine landscape.
GoldenOak began as two children playing around backyard bonfires and was more firmly established with their 2016 debut, Pleasant St. In response to their coming-of-age chronicle, Dispatch Magazine coined the duo one of Portland s most important upcoming bands. As purveyors of age-old tradition sharing contemporary messaging, the pair has landed spots on stage with Lady Lamb, The Dustbowl Revival, The Ghost of Paul Revere, and The Mallett Brothers Band.

W.O.W. is a Portland-based indie-rock band currently working on a full-length album. The single “Reverse Cowboy” was recorded over the past several months of pandemic-induced quarantine and was edited, mixed and mastered at Chillhous Studios in Boston by Will Holland who was worked with The Pixies, Dead Can Dance and Fall Out Boy.
W.O.W. was founded by longtime songwriter and band leader Whit Walker (Pay the Coyote, Formorning, Dixon Benjejo Trash). Because COVID-19 prevented much in the way of in-person recording sessions, Walker enlisted the help of some of his musician friends to collaborate on the album.
