Lonely Parrots info:
One part Michael Martinez & one part Max Embers, the two singer-songwriters have been
making music and performing professionally for the past 8 years. Notable collaborations include the likes of Kelly Clarkson, John Legend, Ryan Tedder, Naika & John Oates (to name a few).
They met in Boston at Berklee College of Music nearly a decade ago but only realized their
creative chemistry in the fall of 2022. What started as a sunset jam on the beach turned out to be the first of many songs, the heart of which revolves around human connection, the highs and lows of friendship and love, as well as our beautiful planet and its incredible, delicate nature.
Moving seamlessly from haunting unison to soulful harmonies, their sound often leaves
audiences unsure of who is even singing which part. Unique and wonderful as their voices are on their own, an entirely new and third voice is created when these songbirds sing together as Lonely Parrots – think Simon & Garfunkel, but with a modern Coldplay twist!
After a successful tour through the Pacific Northwest last year the duo is excited to start
releasing music this year!
Michael & Max are also founders of the MORF initiative (Music On Regenerative Farms) which aims to bring concerts to sustainable farms and projects, giving earth-conscious artists an opportunity to share their music in breathtaking outdoor settings and to raise awareness about the regenerative movement!
Be sure to bring a camping chair and/or a blanket to cozy up on under the stars for this magical evening in our Peace Gardens. You are welcome to bring snacks and drinks as well.
Thursday May 9th 7:30 – 9:30
