An up-and-coming singer, songwriter, and pianist – Rynian offers an eclectic range of musical styles pulled together to create a powerful and shadowy soundscape. Rynian started her journey into music at age 14, after she discovered her ability to play by ear – learning everything from The Offspring to Mozart within weeks of starting. As a vocalist, she has drawn inspiration from singers like Jewel, Tori Amos, and PJ Harvey. Rynian will be performing with her guitarist and backup vocalist, Sky Hakala – a fellow songwriter and self-taught musician who grew up busking in Bellingham and performing alongside garage bands, rappers, and poets.
Due to a private rehearsal dinner for one of our wedding guests, The Marketplace Bar & Taproom will be closed from 3-9pm. Although we will not be pouring our beers on tap or serving cocktails we still have our full wine bar open with a variety of wines to pick from. We apologize for the inconvenience and hope that you join us for wine by the glass or bottle!
Lucy Bishop is a singer/songwriter and guitarist based in the Pacific Northwest with a vocal style as acoustically pure as it is passionate. She delivers smart lyrics over insistently catchy melodies you’ll take with you. She is also the lead singer for the band Sharks of the Salish Sea.
Cumulus is the songwriting project of Alexandra Niedzialkowski. Growing up, Niedzialkowski was obsessed with the 90s singer songwriter, tracing her fingers over the liner notes of Jewel and Sheryl Crow records. She later worshiped at the altar of Third Eye Blind, The Wallflowers, the Gin Blossoms, and Everclear, introducing her early on to the addictive high of a catchy hook. As a teenager, Niedzialkowski came up through the Northwest DIY community, finding influence in the sounds of Mount Eerie, Karl Blau, Mirah, Laura Veirs, Pedro the Lion, Damien Jurado, Nada Surf, Telekinesis, and Death Cab for Cutie.
In 2013 Cumulus released their debut album "I Never Meant it To Be Like This" on Trans Records, owned by Chris Walla, formerly of Death Cab for Cutie. SPIN called their debut " an elegant, understated work of deftly flickering guitar pop." In 2018, NPR premiered their single "Retreat" and Cumulus released a 2nd album, "Comfort World" on Trans Records.
Comfort World took the band on several national tours playing festivals like Treefort and SxSw along the way. Currently Alexandra Niedzialkowski lives in Bellingham, Washington and is in the process of writing a 3rd full length record. The live Cumulus band is Alexandra, William Cremin, Stanley Kim, Tom Fitzgibbon, and Sebastien Deramat.
