Maggie MackenzieMaggie MacKenzie is an up and coming singer-songwriter in the pop-folk space writing vivid, personal songs that deeply resonate with listeners.

She is credited on multiple musical theater albums on Spotify and made her professional theatrical debut in New York City in May 2023 with one of these projects, “Diary of a Payphone” written by Alexandra Bellhaven.

Passim Presents
AnaliseAnalise is an upcoming alternative-indie artist based in Boston, MA. Growing up as an overly extroverted, sensitive, and creative person, she started writing songs at the age of 13 - which quickly became her favorite way of communicating and connecting with others. Still is. Since then, Analise has recorded, produced, and released five singles, with her latest project “Messy” receiving over 35k streams in just two months. The release of her Debut EP, “Oshibana,” was one of her most vulnerable and heartfelt releases to date. Inspired by the likes of Dijon, Boygenius, Omar Apollo, Adrienne Lenker, her mom’s BeeGees obsession and the countless musicals she made with her older sisters, Analise’s music blends together everything that she has lived, loved, and learned. Above all, it’s relieving and relatable; her goal as an artist is to promote thought in the lives of her listeners, to hear her story so as to better understand their own.
