Celebrating the release of her latest album, King Tide, Lena Rich brings her original music to Live From The Divide on October 24th. “Lena Rich’s sound is entirely self-assured as well as unique to her. Through layers of moving instrumentals, an unabashed honesty with herself, and an eye for experimentation, Lena’s vocals and pen lead with simultaneous softness and strength.” (Atwood Magazine). Within her songs, Lena blends a hillside of wildflowers in the Rocky Mountains with the bold shoreline of New England. Weaving the depth of human connection and the magic of moments that stick, Lena paints a picture that stays with you like your favorite photograph. Her sound—a warm blend of atmospheric Americana and folk—is rooted in tradition yet unmistakably her own. Lena has shared stages with artists like Anaïs Mitchell (Bonny Light Horseman) and Antje Duvekot, and performed at festivals including Red Ants Pants and Ossipee Valley. A distinctive singer/songwriter, she’s carving out her own path with authenticity.A graduate of Oberlin College & Conservatory, Lena designed her own major, pulling from elements of music composition, poetry, and performance. As a recipient of the National Parks artist in residency grant in Capitol Reef, Utah, she spent a month living alone in the desert writing and recording. She is currently working on a new album, ‘King Tide’, with the music from her residency featuring collaborations with Bozeman artists and production from Juniper Sound in NYC, slated to be released in the fall of 2025.
