Susan Gibson is an acclaimed American singer-songwriter based in Texas, best known for writing the Dixie Chicks’ massive hit “Wide Open Spaces,” which became one of country music’s iconic anthems. She has released multiple solo albums and toured nationally, blending heartfelt storytelling, folk-country roots, and a warm stage presence. Happily road-worn and deeply connected to her audiences, Gibson’s music draws from real-life experience — finding humor and humanity even in the “hard stuff” of life. She’s also a respected workshop leader and mentor to emerging songwriters.
Sarah Golden is an American folk singer and songwriter from Houston, Texas, who first gained national attention as a contestant on The Voice (Season 2) in 2012. With a soulful, expressive voice and rich roots in Texas folk and Americana, Golden has released recordings including The One I Love and Sessions EP, and earned acclaim for songs with emotional depth and social resonance. She continued to build her reputation through festival appearances, awards recognition, and a steady following in the regional acoustic and folk scene.
