Bio
Gabby & Nick Cameron are a banjo-mandolin folk duo that blends narrative songwriting with a jestful curiosity, asking, “What do the stories we tell reveal about ourselves?” The married duo playfully challenge the common claim of folk bands—"performing traditional music with a modern twist.” Their music pulls back the curtain to reveal that tradition is modernity, constantly evolving alongside the ever-changing world around us.
Meeting in Asheville in 2017, Gabby picked up the banjo and Nick the mandolin, diving into Appalachian traditional music. Their sharp backgrounds in musical theater and classical music fueled a desire for a multimodal approach to storytelling. Their songs ranging from comedic or contemplative, Gabby & Nick explore deeper themes of human connection and hope, viewing folk music as a living, dynamic craft that embraces both the timeless and the timely.
