A family tree of New Rampant Optimism Roadshow

The travelling troupe of musicians aren’t a random assortment. From playing on each others’ records, running into each other on lineups, getting the call up to join Bonnie Prince Billy on stage—they're all connected in the great circle of live music.

Ned Collette has drawn us up a family tree of how all these singer-songwriters are connected. They'll be literally all on the same stage this June, when they come together for a rollicking revue, and create the ultimate set list of all their songs—performing together, and solo.
