Americana duo, Bradford Loomis and Beth Whitney were recently interviewed by top ranked entertainment blog, Entertwine. Here is an excerpt from that conversation:
Entertwine: When did you both meet and start playing music?
Bradford: I kept hearing about Beth and her husband, and had checked out their music online. I was really struck with the depth and evocative nature of her lyrics coupled with beautiful melody. So I asked her if she would play a show with me. Nov. 17th 2012 I believe.
Beth: I said sure, played my set, and then Bradford took the stage and just took the house down. I knew he had it: whatever that thing is that wakes up the soul. No question.
ET: What kind of musical backgrounds do you both come from?
Bradford: I sang in choirs all through high school and played in numerous bands from an a’cappella quintet to progressive alt-rock to a ska band even.
Beth: I grew up singing in the back of a hay bail-topped Volvo station wagon as the fifth of six kids. I sang in children’s choirs here and there but mostly pursued athletic interests until an injury in highschool pushed me more into the songwriting and music vein. My father is a carpenter and poet, while my mother is a painter and musician.
