Fort Collins, CO, based Whippoorwill brings cathartic, alternative -folk written by boots-in-the-dirt, partner-in-crime country girls (Staci Foster and Alysia Kraft) and delivered across drummer Tobias Bank's vast percussive landscape. For Whippoorwill, there's little separation between the soul and the scenery-- heartbreak is a ripped floodplain and longing, an unbroken expanse of sky. With a Fleetwood Mac-style synergy of writers and voices, and an organic stitching together of influences that lands them on the grittier “alt” sides of country, rock and folk, the band has shared the regions biggest stages with Big Thief, Shovels and Rope, Bonnie Raitt and Horse Feathers and has become one of the region’s most-hyped bands on the brink.
