Hailed as "two songwriting gurus with a harmony more powerful than moonshine," the powerhouse award-winning duo of Berkley Hart blend their distinctive voices and solid musicianship to create sounds founded in American roots rock with folk longevity.

Berkley Hart have established themselves as one of the premier acoustic duos in the country. Widely known for their intricate songwriting, world-class playing and memorable live performances, it's easy to lose yourself in their smooth melodies and poignant words in one instance, and then just as easily chuckle along as they tell an amusing story. The musical chemistry between Jeff Berkley and Calman Hart has been cultivated over their individual and shared histories. Berkley is a Kerrville New Folk Songwriter award winner and founding member of the Joel Rafael Band, while Hart released several records as a solo artist. They met on the coffeehouse circuit in San Diego and soon found themselves collaborating and performing together.

In 2000, they released their debut CD, Wreck 'n' Sow, which garnered them critical acclaim and top honors at the San Diego Music Awards. The editor of SLAMM magazine said, "Sometimes an album surfaces that is so emotionally and musically authentic that it crumbles resistance to its genre." In 2002, the duo released their second album, Something To Fall Back On, and made a return trip to the San Diego Music Awards, taking home the title "Best Adult Alternative" album. Relix Magazine proclaimed, "The band infuses its rich, harmony-laden songs with strains of bluegrass, folk, country and rock while their solid and finely-crafted songs are a good melding of yesterday and today." Expertly combining the playful with the poignant, the duo's third album, Twelve, was released in March, 2004. The record, like its title, reflects a cycle that brought them back to their pure skills, with songs and sounds that truly represent their style.
