Whether busy conjuring variations of rhythm folk poetry in song lyrics or exploring the percussive-like dynamics of her trademark guitar riffs, independent folk songstress Antara continues to establish herself as a "new" folk artist that is expanding the forefront of women's music and the independent folk movement. Having performed in more than 500 venues throughout New England, Canada, the Midwest and the South, Antara's unique fusion of rhythmic folk music and interactive coffee house performance capitalizes on a sharing of the sociological perspective that shapes her life, love, and work. Described by colleagues like well-known folk musician Edie Carey as "wonderfully smart songs, incredible humor and an amazing presence onstage," Antara and her work continue to capture praise from audiences, critics, and fellow singer/songwriters, while providing the essential fuel that propels her creative impulse into genres that take traditional folk performance to new levels and listeners.

Watson Park sits across from Merrimack, New Hampshire’s fire station, and less than a mile from the town’s high school. It’s also where bandmates Evan Joseph Ringle, Ryan Sinclair and Troy Hartmann spent much of their time adventuring and growing up together in southern New Hampshire. Watson Park became a musical project between Ringle and Sinclair in 2018, when the two friends began recording songs in Ringle’s bedroom. Songs turned into albums, and Watson Park began performing in 2019 with the welcoming of Hartmann on lead guitar, and Christian Raabe, a friend of Sinclair’s from college on bass. Watson Park was first a park, then a pair of friends recording songs together, then a band. The four-piece have played all over New Hampshire, especially close to University of New Hampshire where Ringle and Hartmann attended college. The group has also at times made their way to Boston and New York, and are currently working on a record they hope to have out in the early months of 2023.
