Lena Marie Schiffer and The House of Sky - Montana Folk Music
Lena Marie Schiffer is a folk singer-songwriter based in Livingston, Montana, known for her deeply personal lyrics and powerful storytelling. After a decade of touring nationally with her former band, Laney Lou and the Bird Dogs, she embarked on a solo career, developing a sound that blends folk, indie, and Americana influences.
In 2024, Lena teamed up with classically trained violinist, Ani Casabonne. Originally from Frisco, Colorado, Ani discovered her love for folk and bluegrass at a young age and quickly became a staple in the Montana music scene. Together, their undeniable chemistry captivates audiences, whether in intimate venues or on festival stages. Ani and Lena recently brought on additional members to form The House of Sky band – Ian Jarvi (drums), Michael Kirkwood (electric guitar), and Grant Klopfer (bass) — bringing Lena's songs to life in their fullest capacity.
Lena's debut solo album, House of Sky, was released on February 6th, 2026. Produced by Courtney Hartman, the album is a powerful and intimate exploration of the peaks and valleys of life. Through her deeply personal lyrics, Schiffer gracefully explores themes of love and connection, while also confronting the raw pain of grief and the uncertainty of life's challenges. Schiffer's grounded voice and honest storytelling guide listeners on a journey of self-discovery and self-forgiveness, making House of Sky a testament to the quiet strength found in moving forward.

Junior:
At the junction of folk, pop, and cosmic country, you'll find Junior, a Montana-based trio composed of songwriters Hermina Jean, Caroline Keys, and Jenny Lynn.
Set in an unsentimental West, their songs explore themes of romantic heartache, grief, aging, and life transitions. Lyrically and musically, their work captures the magical thinking required to endure such changes, drawing comparisons to artists like Mazzy Star, Sibylle Baier, The Cowboy Junkies, S.G. Goodman, and The Roches.
Formed in Missoula in 2019, the group began collaborating with Grammy winner Eric Heywood in 2020, who contributed his psychedelic pedal steel to their debut album, Warm Buildings. Most of the band now resides in the historic mining town of Butte, MT.
Junior's sophomore album, Alive in Another Way, was recorded at the Rope Room in Astoria, OR in the spring of 2025. It is currently in the final stages of production, and the band is seeking label support for a 2027 release.
