Meet the Artists
SATURDAY, OCTOBER 3RD
FIG BARN, ASHLAND, NH
We are so excited for the 2026 season. Fig Tree has been the OG supporter for Women Folk Music. We are honored to celebrate the end of a chapter and the beginning of a new journey by hosting our Women Folk Song Writers’ Round at this majestic barn. Fig Tree has been a catalyst for soooo much inspiration over the years and we look forward to being the final live show, Come help us celebrate together!
Koa Phoenix (Koa Phoenix Pillsbury) is an all-original, self-taught singer-songwriter and multi-genre acoustic artist based in St. Johnsbury, Vermont, in the Northeast Kingdom. She plays guitar and writes deeply personal, stream-of-consciousness style songs rooted in real life.
Andrea Paquin returns for our final show at Fig Tree. Andrea has been a treasured thread throughout Women Folks journey, and we are honored to have her grace our stage with her self taught, story telling style. Her voice will welcome you in and make you want to stay a while.
Ericka Cushing, founder of Women Folk Music Experience, will be leading this intimate evening of music. Her heart to grow and share experiences with other women translates through her music. Unafraid to take accountability when she is wrong, open to learning new things and singing about every step of the journey make her music a relatable, authentic, and inspired.
