Minor Bird - A classically trained pianist and self-taught multi-instrumentalist, C.Wilde spins poetic tales, with a voice oscillating between a silky coo and a guttural howl.
At heart, her musical gems take form as emotionally-receptive storytelling.
Intrinsically poetic, Wilde’s music is about the journey, rather than a set destination.

Husky Whispers is a 4-person acoustic/electric rock band that plays original and classic post-punk songs. Raised on the likes of Sub Pop, SST, & K-ROQ, we are steeped in traditional and modern folk & pop music. Husky Whispers serves an eclectic, 'left-of-the-dial' batch of catchy and fun tunes.
