Join us for the sounds of Summer on Maple Street!
Eva Reyes-Smith Karen Bridges and Clint Thomson
Music on Maple Street continues with the beautifully crafted sounds of Stone & Snow an alt-folk trio known for their rich harmonies and evocative lyrics.
Named “Best Folk/Soul Artist” at the 2022 Richmond International Film + Music Festival, Stone & Snow is a Cincinnati-based Americana pairing of songwriters and multi-instrumentalists, Karen Bridges and Clint Thomson, in collaboration with Eva Reyes-Smith on upright bass and backing vocals. In 2012, Karen and Clint began a collaboration filled with close harmonies and thoughtful lyrics. They gave it a name that gives a nod to the mountain landscapes of the West– Stone & Snow. They have recorded and produced five studio albums to date.
Karen and Clint are passionate about elevating women in music. Through hosting performances for women-led artists, their work collecting data on the gender balance in their local scene, and Karen’s involvement in the “Girls Rock!” franchise, Stone & Snow is invested in seeing more women grow and thrive in the music industry.
“If Florence + the Machine made folk music, it might sound a little like Stone & Snow.”
