The underlying sound of Whippoorwill’s debut release should not be something unfamiliar to frequenters of the NoCo music scene, despite the relatively new name for the duo. Released on 4/20, the project consists of Alysia Kraft (The Patti Fiasco) and singer/songwriter Staci Foster, showcasing the folk-rock/Americana roots of Wyoming and Texas upbringings, respectively speaking. Poised harmonies weave between acoustic ballads and Tom Robbins-inspired Western romps, as both Kraft and Foster highlight impressive artistry and an undeniable musical chemistry. Check out last month’s issue at scenenoco.com for the background on this wonderful collaboration, and watch for solo performances by Staci Foster and Alysia Kraft (as well as The Patti Fiasco, of course).
