Jessica Dobson is the singer and multi-instrumentalist of Seattle's Deep Sea Diver. Her bravado and fearlessness are accents that dominate Deep Sea Diver's forthcoming sophomore LP, Secrets. While much was gleaned from her experiences in her many years spent playing with top tier musical outfits Beck, the Shins, Spoon, and Yeah Yeah Yeahs, she quit to pursue Deep Sea Diver. "Good thing too," noted Stereogum on her pursuit, "because Jessica is an incredible front woman. thedeepseadiver.com
Bryan John Appleby: Bryan John Appleby is a singer/songwriter and composer living in Seattle, WA. Applebys latest release, The Narrow Valley (November 2015), crafted with Seattle producer Sam Anderson, deals with the sun-bleached landscape of his youth a dreamy, densely constructed cinematic world more musically tied to the maximalist West Coast pop traditions of outsider California composers like Van Dyke Parks and Brian Wilson than to the folk roots of Applebys early work. http://www.bryanjohnappleby.com/
Shay Carlucci (of Pretty Broken Things and Ghost Ship) is a local Seattle musician. His first solo EP, Matlby, is due for release later this year.
NOTE: Zach Bolen is no longer able to perform at this event.

About Nepal Peace Home: WHO WE ARE Nepal Peace Home is a reconciliation orphanage that provides a safe home and education to the displaced children of Nepal. WHO FUNDS US Nepal Peace Home is funded by CoAction Foundation, a 501(c)(3) organization based in Seattle, Washington, USA. All donations to Nepal Peace Home are processed by CoAction Foundation and are tax deductible to the extent allowed by law. 100% of donations go to work on the ground in Nepal. CoAction is entirely volunteer-run with zero overhead costs. HISTORY Nepal Peace Home was established in 2008 when a Nepali social worker, Saroj Khanal, recognized the need for a children's center in rural Sarlahi, Nepal. After Nepal's violent Maoist insurgency (the Nepalese Civil War, 1996-2006), many children were left without parents, or with families who could no longer care for them due to loss and poverty.
Saroj also saw the emotional destruction of the Civil War. Nepal is a nation that has suffered political abuse, prejudice, and oppression. Saroj did not want to see his hometown or nation continue to fall apart after the war was finally over. Nepal Peace Home was set up as a reconciliation orphanage: children of differing castes, ethnicities, and religions - who would otherwise never associate with one another - were to live together as brothers and sisters.
Nepal is a breathtaking country with the potential for success. We do not want Nepal to be known for its injustice, but instead, to be recognized for its ability to pick itself up and rear its children toward a better future. It is a country that values family and community, and dances in the face of struggle. It is a country of hope. We raise the children at Nepal Peace Home with no sense of otherness, but instead, as members of one community, one family, and one world who value love above all else. Please join us in our efforts to preserve the love, innocence, and peace of Nepal's youth.
