Description

Armed with a bevy of acoustic instruments from guitar and upright bass to banjo, mandolin, fiddle, and accordion, Coyote Grace mixes bluegrass and blues, soul and Southern twang into a unique sound that hovers just beyond the edge of ‘familiar.’ At once both radically progressive and unashamedly nostalgic, Coyote Grace is not afraid to slip Left Coast politics into a traditional groove, because the honesty of their message shines through.Songwriters Ingrid Elizabeth and Joe Stevens are at the heart of Coyote Grace, accompanied by the latest addition of frequent collaborator and multi-instrumentalist Michael Connolly. Joe’s rough-edged, soft voice, intertwines with Ingrid’s blues-shouter, cabaret vocals and together they create the sweetest of harmonies. Coyote Grace has just released and is touring in support of their new release 'Now Take Flight' recorded at Michael Connolly's renowned Empty Sea studios in Seattle.

MaMuse is sweet soul, folk revival served with a playful splash of uplifting lyrics in haunting harmony. This merry duo (Sarah Nutting and Karisha Longaker), weave voices like a Celtic knot upon a sparse instrumental pallet of upright bass, guitar, mandolins and flutes. Original songs transmitted through the heart and infused with improvisation and storytelling; leave audiences softened and singing along. Creating beauty and magic wherever they go, MaMuse is what a meadow would sound like if it could sing. This coming spring and summer, MaMuse is touring throughout the West and Canada behind their third independent CD, “Integration of the Awkward," scheduled for release on May 5th 2012. “Integration of the Awkward" is a work of heart. A collection of songs born of personal experiences, in working with what life serves us and choosing to move towards openheartedness.
