"Wes Pearce's songwriting steeps southern-appalachian folk in a boiling pot of early doo-wop, with a sweet spoonful of heartfelt lyricism, and a pinch of indie-rock to taste."

Hatchett originally hails from Massachusetts, where he was raised by musical parents and grew up surrounded by a variety of musical influences. He was a bicycle messenger and played in rock and roll bands bands around the Boston area for years before hitting the road with an acoustic guitar and a eclectic repertoire of tunes, busking his way around the country. After a few years on the road and living in various places, he finally hung his hat in New Orleans in 2009 and jumped into the local scene with both feet, playing with various bands including Gal Holiday and the Honky Tonk Revue, Miss Martha, the Wasted Lives, and the Leveetoppers. He has since relocated to West Paris, ME where he works as a Forester and continues to write and record music.

Belk’s songs are slow burning, humble affirmations that paradox is the only way forward, born on the shards of time between tours and overdub sessions. His influences draw from the country-folk lexicon, slacker rock, years of recording parts for everything from Urdustani folk to petrosexual pop country, and the timeless, lonesome tears of the steel guitar.
