Comprised of Zack Smith on guitar/banjo/foot drums/harmonica and Caitlin Doyle-Smith on vocals and percussion, this Nashville-based duo has a slick-yet-rambling sound that blends elements of Delta blues, rock, roots and classic soul. Hardworking DIY-ers at heart, they lived in a van for four years and eventually worked their way up to touring with the Dixie Chicks last summer; they’ve played venues from dive bars to Bonnaroo. Their third full-length album is expected out in 2018. With Forlorn Strangers, Hayward Williams.
