Singer-songwriter Stacey Earle began her career as a backup singer for her brother, Steve. With a tight, subtle sound, it did not take long for her to gain a large regional following once she began performing with her husband, guitarist Mark Stuart, in their hometown of Nashville. In more recent years, she and Mark have been taking their music on the road, spotlighting albums like their latest, Town Square.

In their visits to the Freight the duo delights listeners with their finely-crafted gems of songs, subtle vocals, tight arrangements, and spare, country-roots guitar playing. "I do not claim to be country, I do not claim to be pop, I do not claim to be folk, totally—even though most of my circuit is folk," says Stacey. "It's just people's music, and there's a little something there for everyone."
