Weak In The Knees: The Audreys

Image Via: Here

You wouldn't think Australia and bluegrass would go hand in hand, but The Audreys are proving that they meld harmoniously together like pickles and popcorn (don't knock it till you tried it).  I know what you are thinking, "bluegrass again, really Amber?," but hear me out, this is bluegrass lite (think Iron & Wine, but instead of wine its whiskey and instead of an acoustic guitar its a banjo).  The band, originally a quintet, now consists of velvet voiced singer Taasha Coates and resident string-plucker Tristan Goodall who have birthed a sleepy folk sound with a twang edge.  Their tunes aren't gonna be the ones you throw on to get a party started on a summer day, but if a storms a brewing these are the songs you want playing in the background while you gaze out your blinds onto the rain soaked streets outside.

Hugs,

Amber
