Crowes Pasture

Crowes Pasture, the acoustic folk duo of Monique Byrne and Andy Rogovin, creates intimate, soulful music rooted in life, family, place, and our shared humanity. Their songs move between joy and wistfulness, tenderness and conviction, carried by closely blended vocal harmonies and an expressive instrumental style often described as “a banjo-guitar romance.” Through their “skillfully crafted, emotional songwriting” (Chris Eastburn, award-winning composer), Crowes Pasture connects listeners with stories and experiences that feel deeply personal and universally familiar.

Crowes Pasture has released three EPs and four full-length albums. Their two most recent albums, Don’t Blink (2023) and Slow It Down (2019), were both released at the legendary Club Passim.

The duo has earned thirteen Top 10 songs on Folk Alliance International’s Folk Chart, including “Slow It Down,” which debuted at #1; “Raise Your Hand,” which reached #3 in January 2026; “Take Back the Red White and Blue” (2022); their cover of Mary Gauthier’s “Mercy Now” (2019); and the timely, topical song “Quarantine” (2021).

Crowes Pasture has performed at renowned East Coast music venues including Club Passim, the Shalin Liu Performance Center, Rockwood Music Hall, The Bull Run, and Circle of Friends Coffeehouse, and has appeared in support of The Small Glories and The Kennedys. The duo was twice nominated for Roots Act of the Year by the New England Music Awards (2019 and 2022) and was nominated for Americana Artist of the Year by the Boston Music Awards (2019). They were named finalists for Best Group/Duo in the 2020 International Acoustic Music Awards and again in 2021 for their song “A Virtue and a Call.” In 2024, they won the International Acoustic Music Awards’ Best Country/Bluegrass Song award for “Barranco.”

Crowes Pasture has toured throughout the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom, and is currently recording its fifth full-length album with Don Mitchell of the award-winning indie folk band Darlingside.

The duo takes its name from Crowes Pasture, a secluded stretch of salt marsh and tidal flats on the north side of Cape Cod, where the receding tides reveal intricate patterns in the shifting sand. That recurring cycle of creation and discovery reflects the heart of their musical journey.
