Acoustic Minneapolis duo Talking Tree will be one of the acts performing at the kick-off show for my monthly series at Acadia Cafe on Friday February 19th. Guitarist and co-vocalist Nathan Eliot Rowan contacted my shortly after the series was announced. The simple synchronicity of being at work and stuffing his SPCO tickets into an envelope mere minutes before reading his e-mail prompted me to take a closer look at his band.
I enjoyed the tracks they currently have on their MySpace page from a recent EP entitled Thursday. Rowan shares vocal duties with percussionist Emily Dworsky. Their instrumentation is sparse (i.e. early Elliott Smith), but the male - female harmonies are irresistible. Rowan also performs with local acts Free Grandma, Charlie van Stee Trio, & Living Spoon. His experience and songwriting skills are evident in the stellar lyrics on Thursday.
