The Raven & The Remedy - Fine Folk Music with Wings

Songwriters Leah Kaufman & Janet Buehler mix equal parts silly and sublime with kickass harmony. Janet’s riveting voice and Leah’s intricate guitar will catch your ear, tug at your heart, and make you laugh, even in the same song.  

Short Bio

North Carolina songwriters Leah Kaufman & Janet Buehler mix equal parts of silly and sublime with a twist of kickass harmony. Their original songs have garnered awards from the South Florida Folk Festival, Mid-Atlantic Songwriting Contest, Intermountain Acoustic Music Awards and a few others. But it's Janet’s riveting voice and Leah’s intricate guitar playing that seal the deal, making them an up-and-coming duo to watch. Sit back and let their songs catch your ear, tug at the heart, and make you laugh, often in the same song. Whether it's the story of Dorothy after Oz, or the lure of a pumpkin spice latte, The Raven & The Remedy sing you from laughter to sorrow and back again.

“After making a name for herself and loading up on folkie awards, Kaufman relocated from Seattle to Raleigh where she really makes back porch sounds with locals who aspire to the back 40.  A gentle rain of well wrought folksiness, Kaufman finds her métier in the country where the nearest coffee shop is miles away and the good vibes stretch out like the fields before you. Delightful singing and playing that can make people who make faces at the mention of folk music, stop being so rude.”  - Chris Spector (Midwest Record)

Sometimes you get a sign that tells you you're where you need to be.
