Residents of Jackson Hole, Wyoming, Screen Door Porch’s music evokes open space, dramatic textures, and a genuine character that steeps within your psyche from the first experience. Residing in the country’s least populated state as an Americana / Alt-Country/ Folk band has its own set of demands and challenges but this duo are more than equal to it.

Seadar Rose’s vocals are a languid, whiskey-smooth drawl that easily stand comparison with Lucinda Williams or Gillian Welch and with Aaron Rose recalling Ryan Adams, the pair harmonise and compliment each other beautifully on the 12 tracks on the record. They range from the slow, sultry seduction of Devil’s Honey to the intelligent roots-rock of Shift Work and the cowboy funk grooves of Right Down To It. 

The Fate And The Fruit is the title of their new album due out on May 1st – you can pre-order from their website here.

Comparisons to The Civil Wars are probably inevitable but for us, this is a record with much more in the way of depth, imagination and ambition. Have a taste…
