Originally formed as a collective of musicians in Decatur, Ill., in 2001, STITSR in recent years has been the duo of vocalists and multi-instrumentalists Kathleen Baird and Taralie Peterson. Fewer band members has not meant less wide-ranging sonic experimentation, however; the new album Beasts in the Garden features layered soundscapes created by Peterson on alto saxophone and Baird on flute, rather than a panoply of stringed instruments.
