William Elliott Whitmore
With his punk background and voice like a gravel pit, William Elliott Whitmore is probably the coolest farmer in all of Iowa. But when Whitmore isn’t tending to the land he grew up on, he’s playing a ragged brand of roots-folk that combines an old-timey ethos with modernist iconoclasm. His latest, Kilonova, is a collection of covers, from Bill Withers to Bad Religion. With Raye Zaragoza, Driftless Sisters.
