There’s something to be said about a woman who can sing the blues. Sass, sadness, and a dash of sultriness are all needed to get the message across, but few can illicit gut-wrenching beauty with their lyrics and stage presence. Like Sharon Jones says, “You gotta be genuine!” and no one knows that more than indie soul-blues two piece She Keeps Bees. It’s hard to deny SKB’s power when you see them perform live, as Jessica Larrabee and Andy LaPlant complement each other in style and presence. With a sense of humor, grace, and charm, the duo can shut a rowdy audience up with one note - and the next minute have them giggling at Larrabee’s self-deprecating riffs. Named one of L Magazine’s Eight Bands You Need To Hear, there’s no telling how far these curb-kickin’ kids will go!
