BEYOND the STARS
What is BEYOND the STARS?
In this case, it’s a musical duo composed of Author TM Shaw and Christina Forever. Since their debut performance on the Big Island of Hawaii in February of 2023, BEYOND the STARS has followed the edge of inspiration, and a significant portion of I-80, in search of momentary glimpses of human community and a welcoming place to park.
Having grown up in different times and different places, Tim and Christina found communion with one another in the depths of a conversation that began late one evening in a hotel hallway in the City of Angels. It is a conversation that continues to this day. Their sound, born of radical differences and deep kinship, expresses itself through vocal harmonies, the interplay of guitars and electric piano, and is uniquely their own. It is familiar, yet not reducible to any particular genre or era. In the right situation, live shows unfold long narrative arcs, spontaneously discovered in-between the songs. In such moments of shared discovery we might arrive, for a moment, BEYOND the STARS.

DuffelBelle
Katie Belle Trupiano is a prolific singer/songwriter who grew up along the banks of the Illinois River in Ottawa, Illinois. At the age of 18 she left home and found her place in Chicago’s vibrant Americana music scene. Her timeless and unique songs have won the hearts of fans of all ages, and the admiration of fellow musicians, with their poetic narrative style. Her music and writing have been featured in films and television, as well as a children’s book, written with co-author, Julia Durango. Katie met her husband “DuffelBag” Joe Trupiano in Chicago and they started playing as a duo when he traded his electric guitar for a banjo and some close harmonies. Shortly thereafter, they formed The Belle Rangers, and to date have recorded five studio albums, telling tales of whiskey-soaked tragedies to country-metal ghost stories, and historical events like the invention of the wireless radio. Returning to their roots as a duo, Katie Belle and DuffelBag Joe are still dancing to their own tune.
