Indiana Trust Pops Series

Romance is in the air with a special Valentine’s collaboration between the Symphony and indie-folk duo The Bergamot.    About the Bergamot The Bergamot are proof that big dreams can start small. High-school sweethearts from South Bend, Indiana, Jillian Speece and Nathaniel Paul Hoff took their indie-folk-rock sound from busking on street corners and grinding through dive bars to performing in all 50 states on The Unity Tour. Along the way, their textured harmonies and fearless songwriting earned praise from People Magazine (“hottest emerging talent”), Rolling Stone UK, and EARMILK (“the perfect blend”), plus they shared stages alongside X Ambassadors, Gavin DeGraw, Young the Giant, and even received an invite from OneRepublic which cemented their rise as indie-darlings. Their sound bridges the intimacy of folk, the infectious pull of pop, and the sweeping roar of rock, an alchemy that turns lived moments into anthems both intimate and infinite. In 2017, their breakout single P.D.R. propelled them to win the Project Aloft Star competition, and their music has since been championed by critics from Parade to the Daily Mirror. Beyond the music, the duo’s award-winning, Oscar-eligible documentary State of the Unity (2023) cemented their reputation for marrying art with community impact. Their new album Give Love Away (2025) is out now, a transcendent collaboration with the Notre Dame Children’s Choir that established The Bergamot as one of indie’s most inspiring voices, and a bold Grammy contender for Best Children’s Album.
