Joshua Radin

Joshua Radin is an acoustic singer/songwriter. When close friend and actor/film-maker Zach Braff heard a demo of Radin's song "Winter," he was immediately interested, and got the song onto the show Scrubs in the episode "My Screw Up." The song received an overwhelmingly positive response and gave Radin substantial exposure with the show's demographic. The songs "Today", "Closer", "Don't Look Away" and "These Photographs" were also used on the show.

Heidi Elva

Heidi Elva grew up in a small town in New Zealand. Next to a lake, under mountains and not too far from the sea. Her Father was a postman and a preacher, her Mother a housewife. Growing up there, Heidi felt a deep sense of isolation. New Zealand is a long way from anywhere. Later, Heidi moved to Australia and has lived there for a while now. Heidi plays the harp. Not in a conventional way. She layers loops and using the harp as her drum, she creates beats.
