As childhood friends growing up outside of Denver, Colorado, Justin Lansing and Joe Mailander were always exploring the outdoors. They channeled their adventurous nature into their wildly popular albums - Can You Canoe?, Through The Woods, Saddle Up, Winterland, and Songs For Singin’ - and ended up in the hearts of American families everywhere. They’ve inspired countless, plaid-shirted fans to get outside, get creative, and sing in harmony along the way.

Their most recent effort, Brambletown, is a full-length feature now available on PBS Kids that wanders deep into the forest of imagination and features the cut-paper animation of Eric Power. Joe and Justin spent time writing songs about a community of critters who are grappling with disconnection and restoring interconnection through the healing power of nature. Their gorgeous melodies and unfussy lyrics ease listeners through these woods on a path that is both ancient and reborn.

The Okee Dokee Brothers' extended canoe trip down the Mississippi River inspired their GRAMMY Award winning album, Can You Canoe?, and was the first in their Adventure Album Series. Their trek along the Appalachian Trail is the subject of their latest release, Through the Woods. With songs written by campfire and harmonies born on the water, the natural world is at the heart of their Americana folk music.


The five-time Parents’ Choice Award winners have been celebrated by Outside Magazine, garnered praise from the likes of NPR’s All Things Considered and USA Today, and have been called “two of family music’s best songwriters.”  Their nationwide fan base is drawn to their witty lyrics, strong musicianship and unique folk style. By appealing to the musical needs of the entire family and recognizing that kids deserve quality music, The Okee Dokee Brothers are working full-time to advance the family music genre.

Recent appearances include performances at The Cedar Cultural Center, Minneapolis, MN; The Getty Center, Los Angeles, CA; Austin City Limits, Austin, TX; National Book Festival, Washington D.C.; Symphony Space, New York, NY; Winnipeg Folk Festival, Manitoba, Canada; Wolf Trap's Children's Theatre in the Woods, Vienna, VA; and the Segerstrom Center for the Performing Arts, Costa Mesa, СА.
