The Chord and the Fawn

About Me

Dani asked Angie to be in a band with her…” Since that moment, the cousins have been playing consistently in the Twin Cities area. The group uses shows at venues such as: Triple Rock, The Kitty Cat Klub and their recent four week engagement at the Nomad World Pub to promote their particular brand of pop music. Using instruments such as the ukulele, melodica, kilimba, piano, flute, concertina, and bells, the group has a sound which works well in coffee shops as well as other venues. This unique approach led Erin Roof of the City Pages to comment, “This is pop music thinking outside the guitar-shaped box.” These seemingly quiet and sparse instruments work together with strong vocals to produce a sound that is simultaneously gentle and powerful, soul-baring and soul-affirming. The band self-released their first EP, "This Has to Be Meant to Be", at the Kitty Cat Klub in February. They recently began sessions for their follow-up at Flowers Studio which will be released in the Fall. -Theodore Stassento contact or book the band: [email protected]
