   About The Spares
The Spares make twangy, bluesy, roots music—call it alt-country or Americana. The Chicago duo writes and sings about characters in hard places, like a nine-to-five company man who quits his job in search of meaning ("Mexico") or a marriage in peril ("Waiting for the Smoke to Clear"), whose stories hint at love and truth in ways that the characters themselves don't always recognize. Their lyrics are thoughtful and honest, just as their acoustic music is raw, beautiful, and compelling.
