The Ballroom Thieves

As acclaimed indie folk band The Ballroom Thieves wrote and recorded their upcoming album,
one central question emerged as the theme: “What if we could all just be a little more tender?”
The duo – Calin Peters (vocals, cello, bass) and Martin Earley (vocals, guitar) – started to
ponder what they could do to be more self-aware of their mental health and of those around
them in a world oversaturated by social media, pop-culture, and digital consumption. The result
is a personal, lush, 10-track collection of thoughts on the human experience called Sundust.
For more than a decade, Earley and Peters have been combining their thoughts and musical
abilities. They’ve toured the US dozens of times, ventured into Europe, Canada, and even
managed a journey from Maine to Hawaii to Alaska in one trip, all to play their music for the
dedicated fanbase they’ve been steadily growing, person by person. The two have played
beautiful theaters like Ozawa Hall at Tanglewood, well-loved festivals like Newport Folk, and
legendary rooms like LA’s Troubadour. They’ve been known to power slide across stages on
bloody knees with their full band and silence packed rooms for 90 minutes with their lyrics and
harmonies, accompanied only by a cello and an acoustic guitar during their more intimate duo
shows.
Their most personal album to date, Sundust is about self-awareness, breaking down walls that
trauma creates, and healing from harshness, but it's also about finding the glimmers, the striking
beauty of being a person, and a longing for connection with healthy people. Sundust will be
released on April 12 via Nettwerk. READ MORE +
