The Harlow Pennies
are a lyrical alt-folk band created with vocalists and instrumentalists Michaela Engh and Alexandria Gosen. They met through mutual friends after almost a decade of almost meeting. Michaela has been an avid church musician, and Alexandria has been an avid thespian. In 2023, these two were finally brought together.
A haunting folk duo from a small town in Minnesota, The Harlow Pennies lyrically evoke rustic, gothic images of phantoms, friendship, and fools gold. The Harlow Pennies embrace the literary depth of haunted houses and heartbreak, the juxtapositions of being depressed while surrounded by things that should bring joy, and the curses of being too much and never enough all at once. Through folk sounds with blue grass inspirations, The Harlow Pennies will take you on a journey, make you think, and make you feel seen.
