Description
Female Folk Supergroup. Each of the women play a major role in other contemporary folk and bluegrass bands: Aoife O'Donovan (Crooked Still), Kristin Andreassen (Uncle Earl) and Ruth Ungar Merenda The Mammals).
The trio's magical vocal blend is omnipresent.
What began as casual harmonies while touring on the same bill, Sometymes Why has grown into a band all their own, modern sirens hypnotizing audiences the globe over. Your Heart is a Glorious Machine also showcases the maturity unfolding in these complex and vibrant women in the midst of a folk renaissance. Sometymes Why members, both as a group and individually, have nurtured international success,garnered critical accolades and have inspired a loyal following.
Sometymes Why's music is not strictly folk or alternative bluegrass; more akin to Jenny Lewis or Feist than their other projects, the trio weaves funky standards with their own sensual ballads to create a sound all their own.
