Madeline and Brian (Fendrick & Peck) are a Minnesota based indie-eco-acoustic duo with well woven lyrics and harmonies, delicate yet driving instrumental composition, and quirky and kind personalities. They have been sharing wonderfully unique concert experiences for the past 10 years, blending song, story, poetry, and a love of the natural world and our place in it.
They play anywhere people listen…with their favorite haunts being cozy living rooms, spacious back yards, concert halls, conferences, libraries and other community centers. Additionally, their music can be found in documentaries, storytelling, book clubs, land protection and conservation efforts, workshops, and more.
When not performing, their focus lately has been predominantly on surviving the early parenting years. They are parents to two sweet souls: Hugo (3) and Juniper (1). Other priorities of theirs include making art, getting outside, supporting local community, writing, recording, and feeding Brian’s sourdough starter, Bill Murray.
Madeline and Brian seek to remind us of our commonalities and to help us find the love that others attempt to crush with fear. They hope that all they do fosters connection and cooperation both with the inner self as well as to those around us.
Short Promotional Bio
Fendrick & Peck (Madeline Fendrick and Brian Peck) have put together what can only be described as a variety show of songs, poems, and stories. Their music is all harmony…exquisitely crafted lyrics and composition with unbridled delight peppered throughout. Frequent instrument swapping, quirky tales of their exploits, and sudden dives into deep heart stuff will leave you bubbling at the end of a concert!
And…just because….
Hugo is an engaging and communicative lil toddler who’s friendly energy cracks open even the toughest nuts. He’ll be 4 on August 1st, and he’s always curious about what you’re doing and is excited to have a chat with you about it!
Juniper is a present, loving, and generous little soul. She’s just starting to say words now (favorites among the more common words are “hat,” “shoe,” and “Beau” (which she uses for all dogs but is after a particularly sweet pup she loves in Maine) and is toddling faster and faster!
