Harmonious Friday: Watch The Staves’ Black Cab Session, Etc.
We’ve been unknowingly deprived again. The musical Niagara Falls continues unabated, and we’ve let more mouthfuls geyser past. Take, for example, The Staves, a sister-trio out of Watford, England. They may be just what the world’s needed to fill the gene-harmony void left by The Roches (see in particular the second video below). Our initial discovery of The Staves came courtesy of their Black Cab Session, which you can watch immediately below. These are some seriously harmonious sisters, with the centerpiece of the sisters sounding a bit like Feist (no higher compliment can we pay). After, check out some other winning vignettes from The Staves. They’ve been at it for some time now, but only last November released their debut album entitled Dead & Born & Grown, which was produced by legendary producers Glyn and Ethan Johns. Their performance of the title track can be seen below. If you like what you hear and see, go over to the sisters’ YouTube Channel for a plethora of possibilities. The Staves are currently on tour and coming to Cali in June. Check the dates HERE.
