Jetty Swart, who pronounces her first name "Yeti", was born in the port of Amsterdam, spent half a life-time in France before landing in San Francisco. She found an accordion on her way from Prague to Berlin, passing by New York and Mexico. She sings most of her songs in French, speaks English, dreams in Dutch and calls her music "a punk-style gypsy party where Nina Hagen, Edith Piaf and Kurt Weill meet." From playing on the streets in the south of France to performances at the Francophonic Festival in Poland, Jetty is hilarious, engaging, dramatic, energetic, touching and thoroughly original.

The acoustic duo Bearkat & Paul write & record original music that has been described as having a 1960's feel with a modern twist. We play acoustic guitars with a stand up bass and some percussion.
