Antje returns to the Harmony on the Green stage after accompanying Catie Curtis at her show here back in May. The audience was delighted by her beautiful harmonies on Catie’s songs, as well as her sharing a few of her own songs with us. We are thrilled to welcome her back!
Antje has won some of the top songwriting awards including the Grand Prize in the John Lennon Songwriting Competition, the prestigious, Kerrville (TX) “Best New Folk Award” and in one of the nation’s top music markets, she won the Boston Music Award for “Outstanding Folk Act”, three of the top prizes in the singer songwriter world. Two of her albums found her working with Richard Shindell as producer, as well as other “folk royalty” such as John Gorka, Lucy Kaplancky and Mark Erelli.
Antje has extensive touring experience, criss-crossing the US and Europe many times. She is a compelling live performer and has been invited to play some of the top festivals including The Newport Folk Festival as well as the Mountain Stage, Philadelphia and Kerrville Festivals. Internationally, she’s headlined festivals in Scotland and Denmark.
The Bank of America featured Antje’s song “Merry Go Round” in a national TV advertising campaign, including a Super Bowl audience. Neil Dorfsman, producer for Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen and Sting says, “When I first heard Antje I knew I was witnessing something very special. She creates an entire, detailed world in verse, and takes you there with beautiful and understated melody. Her songs are stunning paintings of color and shade and always generate the heat and light that real art should. In an unpoetic and ‘in your face’ world, she is lyrical and subtle”
Antje has played the TEDMED conference in San Diego. CNN said of the experience, “Then, this morning, the tone of the conference turned from intellectual to deeply emotional when Antje Duvekot played her guitar and sang about her grandmother’s descent into Alzheimer’s disease. Duvekot’s song was all too relatable for those of us who have watched loved ones slip away. ‘And Anna tries to form a thought / But at the end she’s forgotten where she started from / There’s something she would like to say / But the words in her head seem to have got away’ she sang.”
Antje’s most recent album, New Wild West was released in September, 2023.
Opening for Antje will be Eva Gertz. Eva is an eclectic artist of many mediums, born and raised in Melrose, MA where she started piano lessons at a young age. After attending Berklee College of Music (class of 2015), she spent six years developing her multi-faceted music career in NYC. This led her to arrange for Broadway and assist top-rank composers, perform as a dueling pianist on cruise ships, and self produce her original singer-songwriter releases along with ultra-creative music videos which share an uplifting message of self-love.
She currently lives in Somerville and teaches arranging at Berklee among many other musical jobs and projects. Her appreciation for the local arts community that has supported her from the beginning continues to grow immensely. You can learn more about her at her website https://www.evagertz.com/
