Artist Bios

Katie Dobbins

Award winning singer-songwriter and light warrior Katie Dobbins seeks to share honest music that captivates listeners and brings light to the darkness. With a mastery of storytelling and the heart of a poet, this soulful songstress captures elements of life and relationships in ways that lift the spirit and challenge the soul. Her album There Is Light, produced by multi-award-winning producer Sean McLaughlin of 37′ Productions, was awarded Album of the Year at the 2021 Limelight Music Awards. Her single There’s a Light, mastered by Grammy-nominated engineer Jeff Lipton, was featured on Spotify’s Editorial playlist. Her music has been featured on prominent radio stations like The River and “Boston’s Hottest Country,” with host Carolyn Kruse raving, “Sweet but bold, Katie’s voice is reminiscent of one of her heroes, Jewel, but only deeper… A fearless spirit with a gentle touch.” Dobbins’ latest single Grateful is an uplifting ballad aiming to inspire awe and wonder in all who listen. The track was mixed and mastered by Emmy-nominated producer Brian Coombes of Rocking Horse Studio (NH).

Patrick Sampson

Like a silk-lined cedar chest, Patrick Sampson’s unique voice and skillful guitar-work hold and communicate the precious treasures of life’s most moving moments. Unassuming yet commanding, Patrick draws audiences to the edge of their seats and to the truths deep within themselves. An emotive pop sensibility warmed by Americana influences shines in Patrick’s honest, unguarded performances all across the country. Patrick is a native of upstate New York and is endorsed by Gretsch Guitars®.

Colin Nevins

A native to central New Hampshire, Colin Nevins has followed a passion for music as both a listener, absorbing a wide range of musical styles, and as a performer, playing in bands and honing his craft as a solo artist. From an early age he was captivated by music and the power of a good song. Taking piano and saxophone lessons from his grandmother, and quickly moving to guitar by age twelve, Colin has been a long-time student of song craft. Pulling inspiration from songwriting legends like John Prine, Bob Dylan and Townes Van Zandt, Colin’s songs tell stories about small town living, down-to-earth characters, and the duality of the human experience.

A Listening Room Experience

Hermit Woods is excited to bring talented artists from New England and beyond to perform for you. Each performance will provide you with an intimate, up-close, and personal experience with the performing artists. We ask our audience please refrain from talking during the featured show. Your silence will allow the artists and the audience to immerse themselves in the experience, which is not otherwise possible in larger, noisier environments.

Doors open at 5:30 pm for a complimentary wine tasting. The Loft Doors open at 6:00. We encourage you to arrive early for our wine tasting and enjoy food and wine before the show. The kitchen will close at 7:00 pm. When the featured artists takes the stage we will ask that the audience remain quiet during the performance. After the show, we invite you to interact with the artists and purchase any music or merchandise offerings if available.
