Echo — — When indie folk duo, The Winterlings, arrived in Washington State five years ago, they were welcomed by a pack of wild coyotes. ?They were outside our motorhome window, howling like cats trapped in a trash can,? Wolff says. ?It was delightful.? — Songwriters and multi-instrumentalists Amanda Birdsall and Wolff Bowden had toured their first album, The Animal Groom, from Miami to NYC to Seattle. Called an ?undeniable gem? by No Depression, the album hit #6 on the Roots Music Report Folk Chart. Partners in life as well as music, The Winterlings parked their RV in the shadows of the Olympic Mountains, where they planned on letting their roots run deep into moss and glacial silt. — ?By sunrise, the coyotes were gone, and Wolff started chopping firewood,? Amanda says. ?In the old days, when young couples got married and headed west, their families gave them tools as wedding gifts. When we headed west, Wolff?s Dad gave me an axe. ?You can own it and Wolff can swing it,? he said. Lyrics came to me. ?You?re the axe that I have carried since the day when we were married.? Those lines became the song ?Acres.?? — ?Acres? became the title track of The Winterlings? sophomore release, You Are Acres, a collection of songs rich with natural imagery. Throughout the album, Wolff and Amanda take turns singing lead, with words so vibrant the songs unfurl like tiny films. — (Source: Artist PR) — — UPC 700261427065 — — The Amazon ASIN for the mp3 version of this CD is (not known) — — Another listing by Zip
