Tia Martini and Leon Elam - The Pickin’ Pear - branch out from Canyon Collected to create a folk 'n' roll duo. They combine their unconventional stylings to their traditional instruments and create an original mix of modern American music. Together the Pickin’ Pear take the banjo and ukulele down the road of folk, rock, and bluegrass. Sometimes the ukulele will even launch you straight to outer space! A blend of top-notch songwriting and improvisational jamming makes each performance exciting and new. The Pickin’ Pear plan to bring their organic and all natural blend of folk 'n' roll all across the U.S. for years to come.

The Pickin' Pear has been lucky enough to perform with Fruition, Grant Farm, The Rumpke Mountain Boys, Old Salt Union, David Gans, The Sweet Lillies, Bridget Law, Cascade Crescendo, Diggin' Dirt, One Grass Two Grass, Grassfed, River Valley Rangers, Fox Crossing String Band, Restless Leg String Band, Band of Comerados, Jack Cloonan Band, Dodgy Mountain Men, Jenny Don't and the Spurs, ClusterPluck, Devil Train, Naughty Sweethearts, Bluegrass Sweethearts, Tyler T. and The Common Clay and many more.
