PRESS:

"A captivating blend of acoustic instruments, cutting edge songwriting, and good production. Might be the best new name I’ve heard out of Charlotte this year!" - WNCW Martin Anderson

Both artists have enough talent to release something solid on their own, but the combination is over the top. I wish I heard music this good on major labels. It's kind of Charlotte's version of She & Him. One of the best albums I've heard this year. - Creative Loafing - Jeff Hane

"This band, which just formed in december, is a collaboration between jimmy brown of Airspace and ashlee hardee of Flagship, two indie pop/rock/folk veterans who have joined forces to dive into the ever-growing indie folk scene. their sound is similar to a more heavily outfitted and produced Bowerbirds, though some of their tracks are more pop-y than others. their six-track pre-release, The Storm & the Eye, bodes well for their future, and with each additional listen, we just get that much more pumped about this charlotte, NC-based breakout group." - Sansculottes

"It’s one of the area’s best new bands. Belfast native/Charlotte transplant Jimmy Brown heads up this outfit, which features male-female vocals, acoustic strings (banjo, violin, mandolin, bouzouki), backing shouts and keyboards in a stew that occasionally echoes the Arcade Fire’s musical recipe." - Charlotte Observer

I am thinking of the rarity of finding songs that help alter your reality, that seem to be goodness from the inside out. Matrimony’s “The Eye and The Storm” invades your personal space–sometimes delicately tapping you on the shoulder, sometimes pulling the rug out from under your feet. This partnership seems divine indeed, its vows sung holy, its promises fulfilled. - Blue Indian, Holly Etchison
