The Druthers make heart-sweeping folk / pop with his and hers harmony.

 

The magnetic Portland, OR six-piece is defined by the unmistakable voices of their two lead singers: the open, weathered rasp that is his (Kirk Duncan) and the whisper-to-wail force that is hers (Erin Adkisson). The pair is accented by a song-serving flurry of trumpet, piano, organ, guitars, drums and bass.

 

Unmerciful, heartbreaking, uplifting and full of grace, The Druthers make moving music.
