  • Bio

    Formed in 2002 by Rick Moody (acoustic guitar, vocals) and Hannah Marcus (acoustic guitar, piano, fiddle, vocals). David Grubbs, of the Red Krayola, Squirrel Bait, Bastro, and many other bands, joined in 2003. He plays many instruments, though mostly the electric guitar, and sings sometimes. Nina Katchadourian (acoustic guitar, accordion, recorder, tomato, vocals) joined in 2006. The Wingdale Community Singers play folk music that could have been written any time in the last sixty years. It's Old Time, it's High Modernist, it's experimental, it's resistant to interpretation, it's funny sometimes, it's full of dread other times. One aspect remains throughout: there's a lot of singing. And a lot of harmony. SPIRIT DUPLICATOR (Scarlet Shame records) comes out on October 17th, 2009. Available on itunes, CD baby, Amazon and fine music stores near you.

    Just stopping by to say Hi and share some news!

    It would be awesome if you would take a moment (or four) to visit my MySpace profile and check out some of my new tunes as well as our Singer/Songwriter's contest (it's only $5 to enter)!

    The winning songwriter will receive a complimentary week at our 20 acre horse ranch getting demos of his/her songs produced while having an amazingly creative experience at one of the most beautiful places in the world! Families/significant others are also welcome (we have two private guest houses)!

    If you know a talented singer/songwriter that would benefit from this opportunity, please feel free to pass the info along.
    Have an awesome week!
