RIVER WHYLESS
Here’s what you need to know about River Whyless: they’re a band from Asheville, North Carolina whose music sits somewhere between folk, indie and something harder to define. Known for their festival appearances (Newport Folk, Bonnaroo) and for their performances on platforms like NPR’s Tiny Desk, their sound has earned them a reputation for thoughtful songwriting and surprising arrangements. Their latest album, Monflora, feels like aconversation—between four distinct voices, between tradition and experimentation, and between the familiar and the unexpected. A return to their roots as well as a leap forward, the album blends lush harmonies with a raw, unfiltered energy.
THE HACKLES
The Hackles are a folk collaboration from Astoria, Oregon. The band is comprised of Kati Claborn, Luke Ydstie, & Halli Anderson.
Powerful three-part harmonies & an unconventional & nuanced use of guitar, violin, banjo & clarinet combine to create a compelling & unique blend of folk & Americana. All three take lead vocals & contribute as songwriters, imbuing their songs with compassion, humor & a dark honesty.
The band has released four albums, “The Twilight’s Calling it Quits” (2018), “A Dobritch Did as a Dobritch Should” (2019), “Songs for the Fool” (2022), & “What a Beautiful Thing I Have Made” (2023). They have a decade-plus worth of touring under their belts nationally & internationally as The Hackles & as members of Horsefeathers, Blind Pilot (Claborn & Ydstie), & River Whyless (Anderson).
“Highly refined songwriting & awe-inspiring harmonies”- Rough Trade
“Intelligent, highly-melodic song-writing with infectious instrumental hooks, perfectly offset by sumptuous harmonies”- David Pratt, Folk Radio UK
