OUR STORY
- Husband and Wife Americana Songwriting duo Aaron & Amanda Konzelman. Writing and performing together internationally for 21 years. Haunting and melodic harmony-driven Americana with authentic stories and masterful delivery. Their true-life love story and connection is electric and can be felt in every room they perform in.
They both grew up in Waco TX, surrounded by music. Amanda started singing and performing at a young age in church and with a father who was a local Texas country singer and performer that performs around Texas today. Aaron grew up traveling and learning music from his parents who were one of the first internationally known Contemporary Christian groups with sparrow records for nearly 20 years.
Aaron and Amanda met in a college music performance class and started singing together and performing around Texas before getting married in 2003. Their music has taken them across North America, Western Europe, and south America over the last 23 years.
In 2014 they were offered and accepted a two-year staff writing position with Platinum Pen Publishing in Nashville TN writing country and Folk/Americana music for Platinum Pen and the catalog of Broken Bow Records. Aaron spent 8 years as a commercial music Audio Engineering educator as well as working with many touring artists as a live sound engineer and producing in his personal Studio.
Their musical style draws influence from Johnny Cash, Allison Krause, Mumford and Sons, Chris Stapleton, Ray LaMontagne, and The Civil Wars. They weave strong storytelling and modern folk/Americana rhythms with pop/folk harmonies and energetic stage performance.
In 2020 Aaron was contacted by NBC Executive producer and asked to be a contestant on the reality music show “The Voice” season 20, and appeared on the show in 2021 earning chair turns from Blake Shelton and John Legend and choosing a spot on Blake Shelton’s team.

– Goodnight Hestia (music blog)
"A Modern storyteller/folk rock sound with a bit of Americana and acoustic rock vibe weaves vivid storytelling with haunting melodies.
What an incredibly seasoned duo. Perfect harmony. Few possess these gifts in a small Texas town. Must be the water.”
-David Feagan, Cogwheel Media.
"It's like an angel and chainsmoking cowboy teamed up to create a sound and harmony we didn't know could exist this side of heaven."
