Style and Influences
Their songs are a distinctive blend of stunning vocal harmonies, sung against textured layers of skillfully crafted electric and acoustic guitars, piano, and trumpet, and woven through with solid bass and tight drum rhythms.
Their sound is simultaneously unique and familiar, reminding the listener of the Indigo Girls, James Morrison, Texas, and Shawn Colvin. Their enduring and beautiful melodies are interlaced with heart-felt and memorable lyrics about love, heartache, yearning, and passion.
