Singer-Songwriters, Thea, and Chuck "The GreenMan" Willhide, have been performing together since 1998. They blend vocal harmonies with acoustic guitars and world percussion to create a contemporary and timeless sound. They both began playing at the age of eight.
Thea spent her early childhood in a traditional Seminole Indian village on the banks of the Miami River, and her summers in the Appalachian Mountains of North Carolina. As an adult she lived in the Desert Southwest working with Indigenous healers and touring as a singer-songwriter. As a result of these influences, Native American images and the subject of rivers, mountains and canyons weave their way through her songwriting. Her lyrics are socially conscious and empowering, her love songs poignant and deep.
Chuck began his professional music career in Pennsylvania playing keyboard in a rock band. His long musical history includes singing in a church choir, Barber Shop Quartet, and men's chorus. Chuck's voice is compellingly beautiful and after moving to Western North Carolina he began performing in concert halls, churches and healing retreat centers. Accompanying himself on keyboard and guitar, Chuck began writing songs at age seventeen. His music and songwriting is heartfelt, sincere and focused on heart-centered spirituality.
