Robby Hecht and Caroline Spence

Robby Hecht and Caroline Spence met while performing at the Rocky Mountain Folks Festival in 2013. Since then, these two friends have gotten into the habit of taking time off from their solo projects to write and sing together in their hometown of Nashville and on tour across the country. After their two duet singles, "Two People and Parallel Lines were streamed nearly 8 million times on Spotify, Robby and Caroline figured they were doing something right and decided to write and record a full album. This new album, Two People, is named in honor of the first song they released together, but the title really speaks more to the heart of the collection itself. All of the songs on Two People are about the endlessly beautiful and difficult task of joining your life with anothers. In the case of Spence and Hecht, the results are elegant harmonies and effortlessly human songs that cut right to the point

Motivated by both his love of songcraft and his ineptitude at competitive sports, Robby has won over judges at several major performing songwriter competitions including those held at the Kerrville Folk Festival, Telluride Bluegrass Festival, and the Rocky Mountain Folks Festival. Eventually I had to move on from contests and be a real singer-songwriter and do booking and marketing and stuff, he says. So he did: In 2014, his third studio album, Robby Hecht, got him featured on NPRs Mountain Stage and was praised as songwriting of the highest quality by The Telegraph in a five-star review. And his 2017 single The Ends And The Means was recently featured in the nationally acclaimed fiction podcast Welcome To Night Vale.

While Caroline Spence may not look like one of the road-hardened troubadours of America's past,, the young songwriter from Charlottesville Virginia is every bit as serious. Caroline has won numerous songwriting awards from industry mainstays like the Kerrville Folk Festival and American Songwriter Magazine, and garnered nods and admiration from both Miranda Lambert and her fellow writers in the Nashville underground. Her 2017 release "Spades and Roses" was #17 on The American Songwriter's Magazines's list of the Top 25 Albums of 2017.
