The Heists | “Seasons Turn” | Sometimes songs feel like messages from your unknown self. Erin quit her job to start her own business and play more music two months after writing "Seasons Turn".

The Heists | “Please Let Me In” | A heartbreaking banger co-written during a trip to Louisiana in the fall of 2024.

Folk duo The Heists perform original songs that will transport you to the backrooms of Alaska’s close-knit bluegrass and folk scene. Known for their toe-curling country and bluegrass harmonies, Erin Heist (guitar) and Andrew Heist (mandolin, fiddle) bring bluegrass drive, country emotion, and old time groove to their original Alaskan folk music.

The Heists’ debut EP came out September 2026 - now streaming everywhere. Their debut album will be recorded in December 2026. More details can be found on their EPK.
