Bellows, a band based in upstate New York, is the brainchild of Oliver Kalb. Their tender-footed melodies erupt in bursts of frantic, wobbling drums and weird orchestrations that defy the limitations of conventional pop and folk. http://bellows.bandcamp.com/ Sticklips is the experimental folk project of Hudson's Johanna Warren, whose ethereal, hauntingly beautiful voice couples with adept finger-picking to weave a tapestry of unusual harmonies and surreal poetry. http://sticklips.bandcamp.com/
