Born in western Kansas, April Nicholle studied ballet and danced professionally around the world. One grandfather was a renowned Bach organist. A grandmother was an opera singer. April began writing songs as a teenager. Her career as a singer began even earlier. Singing became her focus while she lived in Texas, where she performed often in Denton, Dallas, and Fort Worth. She took up the study of poetry to develop her songwriting. Always fascinated by Europe, France in particular, she taught English in France for a year.
Mark Kane grew up in the Sandhills of Nebraska. Besides doing farm work, he learned to play guitar, sang at school and in church, and read widely, waiting to see the world. Once in college he began to explore the US, Europe, and, eventually, China, where he taught English for a year. One particularly important journey was to Greece and Turkey with his friend the poet Nicholas Samaras. Mark never stopped writing, playing, and singing music.
