Laura Bates and Brandon Foote's sound is timeless, rootsy and lush, with soaring harmonies, piano, mandolin and guitars harkening back to the olden days with new vision. Bates and Foote look and sound like they could've just stepped off the stage of the Grande Old Opry, or perhaps even further back, to the dancehalls of the civil war era. Always digging deeper and moving forward.

Laura and Brandon love music and it shows as it flows through the great deal of goodness they give away at all of their performances.

Look for their debut Earthwork music release this April!

The CD features Michigan musicians Cap'n Midnite, Jen Sygit, Rachael Davis, Andrea Moreno-Beals, Jonathon Price, Daisy May, Seth Bernard, members of Steppin in it and the Two Hearted Stringband and more, the album was recorded over the course of three days in Laura's house in Lansing by the inimitable Ian Gorman.

JUBILEE

Laura Bates & Brandon Foote
"Jubilee
"

"Newcomers Bates and Foote, who hail from Michigan, accompany themselves on piano, guitars, and mandolin, as they weave some great harmonies through nine original songs and instrumentals. Standouts include the beautiful "De Cleft," and "The Lonesome Whippoorwill." Quiet and lovely." - Sing Out!
