“...blending progressive politics, sharp wit, and deep introspection with nuanced harmonies...” -curve magazine
“Kate and Sarah deliver high-quality, intelligent tunes with the skill and passion of legendary folksingers in the making.” - Off Our Backs Feminist News Journal
Pleasantly Aggressive Folk Duo Nervous but Excited (Kate Peterson & Sarah Cleaver) is two songwriters, two singers, two guitars, a mandolin, a violin, a few harmonicas, a barrel of harmony, some vaguely choreographed dancing and a lot of laughter. Their original repertoire ranges in topic from smart, introspective narratives to the tactfully political… and they still dabble a bit in the love/non-love variety every now and then.
They’ve been touring semi-nationally for over two years and have played with many established artists such as Toshi Reagon, Utah Phillips, The Butchies, Alix Olson, Bitch, Girlyman, Pamela Means and Ember Swift.
They have recently completed their third release, Once More… With Feeling. A little bit about it…
"...how I feel about the whole thing - so real. This music comes from such an honest, beautiful place. Their voices sound beautiful together and the production is great - sparse and lush at the same time. I love how their voices can be soft yet retain their strength. Just beautiful. "
- Natalia Zukerman, Singer Songwriter
