Kate Bass, Colin Davin and Avery Waite formed Blue Cedars during the Covid-19 pandemic. Kate and Avery first met while working for a cultural diplomacy program in Lebanon; Avery and Colin met as graduate school classmates at The Juilliard School; Colin and Kate met via Zoom in the forming of this unique ensemble. Each coming from genre-diverse musical careers, Kate, Avery and Colin bring their own unique voices to both original songs and re-imaginings of classic American music.

Blue Cedars was formed in response to a collective inner need to find human connection and to create beauty in a time of isolation.

Our first real-life tour after months of creating music remotely in quarantine was in August, 2021 throughout Portland, Oregon - for future tour dates and music releases, please stay connected with us on social media on Instagram or Facebook

Our first single, “Lilac Wine”, is available to stream and download at our bandcamp page - more to come in 2022!
