"Their music, particularly the harmonies, is just plain beautiful." -LA TETE DU ROI
"Nic Dillon's world-weary ruminations abandon the bitter diatribes that litter the everyday songwriter's debut, but it's better-half Heather's serene, earthy harmonies that separate this Champaign, Ill., duo from the Iron & W(h)ine set." -MAGNET
"Nic and Heather Dillon weave entrancing harmonies with their eyes locked on artistry." -ILLINOIS ENTERTAINER
Love, then music, then marriage…the story continues. Since 2001, Heather and Nic Dillon have recorded together and toured throughout the United States and Canada, performing with the band Winter In Alaska and under their former name, Casados. Their newest self-engineered/recorded project, “It Would Make Things Worse,” is a culmination of a sonic evolution that has brought them out of the pedestrian indie-folk-singer-songwriter genre and into their current coat: lyrically-driven, atmospheric chamber-folk. Here you will find a gentler, more deliberate dynamic that alludes not only to the more gleeful aspects of life and love, but also the darker.
“It Would Make Things Worse” is slated for national release on Parasol Records in September 2009.

Dear You and Yourn, Thanks so much for the friendship. I really enjoyed you music; especially "It Would Make Things Worse" and "New Years". Beautiful harmonies and songcraft. I invite you to come over and check out my songs sometime. I recently posted the final tracks to my CD "East of Eden". I'd be very open to any feedback you might have. Best of luck chasing your muse.
