Beth // James is an indie-Americana duo from Austin, Texas made up of award-winning singer-songwriters Mikaela and Jordan Burchill. Mixing musical traditions is natural for the newly married duo, who first met at the University of North Texas's prestigious jazz program, and cut their teeth on jazz guitar and vocals. Both highly accomplished players, Jordan and Mikaela are deeply embedded in the Austin music scene, and have gathered a constellation of like-minded friends who contribute throughout the record. Jordan has been a collaborator of Austin psych-rockers White Denim in the past, and their shared love of jazz, great songwriting, and all things guitar proved to be a perfect fit.
