The Spine Stealers Tickets

The Spine Stealers are a two-woman spooky folk/folk-rock duo based in Madison, Wisconsin. Comprised of Kate Ruland and Emma O’Shea, the project blends haunting harmonies with rustic guitar and storytelling that nods to dark folklore and small-town Americana. Since forming, they've carved a dedicated regional following and earned recognition beyond their home state.

In 2023, they captured attention by winning the Blue Ox Music Festival Virtual Band Competition, a milestone that helped propel their music to listeners across the country. Their debut full-length, If the Sky Falls, Beyond the Sidewalks, arrived in October 2024 and set the tone for their evolving sound—moody, melodic, and unmistakably spine-tingling in the best possible way.

As they move into 2025, The Spine Stealers are releasing new material on Bandcamp, including The Cabin Tapes (April 2025) and Yellow Feather (September 2025), while continuing to tour across the Midwest and beyond. Expect intimate, emotion-driven live performances with the same warm stage presence and storytelling that fans have come to love.
