Runs to Blue out now. Saddle Creek Records.

Stefanie Drootin and Chris Senseney are music lifers — a married couple whose story began on the road and never really left it. Drootin spent her teens and twenties touring the world as a bassist with the likes of Bright Eyes, Conor Oberst, Azure Ray, and M. Ward; Senseney grew up in Nebraska’s Sandhills, fell into Omaha’s legendary indie scene, and never stopped writing songs.

Together they formed Big Harp, releasing three albums of hard-edged folk-rock before a decade-long hiatus. Their fourth album Runs to Blue — recorded live with just acoustic guitar, bass, and two voices that know each other like hand and glove — is out now on Saddle Creek Records.

Notable: Saddle Creek Records  ·  Members toured with Bright Eyes, Conor Oberst, M. Ward, She & Him  ·  Runs to Blue (2026)
