On Friday, October 17, 2025 Two Way Street Coffee House Friday Night Concert Series presents Grace Pettis and Natalie Price.

Grace Pettis

Grace’s music is described as a little bit of folk, a little bit of country/Americana, and a whole lot of soul.  Grace is the winner of many of the nation’s most prestigious songwriting contests, grants, and residencies, including NPR’s Mountain Stage NewSong Contest, The Buddy Holly Educational Foundation, and The Helene Wurlitzer Foundation of New Mexico. Grace’s songs have been recorded by other esteemed artists, including Sara Hickman and Ruthie Foster, with three co-writes on Foster’s Grammy-nominated album, Healing Time (2024).

Grace was an official showcasing artist at SXSW and Folk Alliance International last year (2024). She has independently released three acclaimed records and signed with MPress Records in 2020. Her debut album on MPress, Working Woman (2021), was produced by lauded singer-songwriter Mary Bragg, mixed by two-time Grammy® Award winner Shani Gandhi (Best Engineered Album, Non-Classical), and featured an all-female/non-binary band and creative credits. Guest contributions came from Indigo Girls, Ruthie Foster, Dar Williams, and other luminaries.

Natalie Price

Texas-born, Nashville-based Natalie Price is a singer-songwriter whose music blends Americana, indie folk, and melodic pop in what she calls “Ameri-kinda.” Her self-titled full-length album, Natalie Price (2023), produced by acclaimed artist Mary Bragg, showcases her confessional songwriting and wide emotional range—from introspective ballads to catchy, pop rock anthems. The album has garnered praise for its authenticity and cinematic depth, positioning her as a compelling new voice. Her 2025 single “Monday & Tuesday” dives into the bliss of newfound love with earworm melodies and slow-burn tension, marking a continued evolution of her sound. With a gift for transforming deeply personal experiences into songs that feel universal, Natalie is quickly becoming a fan favorite.
