GoldenOak features siblings Lena and Zak Kendall with Mike Knowles on bass and Jackson Cromwell on the drums. They say their music is rooted in the natural landscape. The songs move like a stream, meandering and weaving. It’s folk-influenced for sure, but with elements of rock n' soul.
NHPR and The Word Barn are partnering to record live music every week so you can experience it anywhere: in your car, your kitchen or through your headphones. No cover. Just great music.
