If you’ve read this week’s edition, you know I’m rather enamored with the debut offering from Rutland’s Split Tongue Crow. Essentially a revived version of late Queen City outfit Will — minus Connor McQuade, plus vocalist Cara White — STC picks up where that band left off a few years ago, boasting clean, twangy hooks and gorgeous vocal harmonies. STC are touch more subdued, veering more toward melancholy indie-folk than their rowdier alt-country predecessor. But they are also far more polished and refined. I dig it.
The band has a string of loccal dates coming up, starting with this Saturday’s gig at the Shelburne Steakhouse and Saloon. (Yes, really.) In the meantime, here’s a clip of Split Tongue Crow’s “Horizons,” from their newly released self-titled debut. Enjoy.
