We've been hearing about Rainbow Girls for years, mostly from other musicians who are fans - always a good sign. Philip finally got the chance to see them live at this year's Folk Alliance, and was blown away by their songwriting, their great playing, their harmonies, their instrument swapping, and their charm. We are so excited to host them for this show in the Speakeasy.
Rainbow Girls are an eclectic folk trio hailing from the golden countryside just north of California's Bay Area. Comprised of three unique musical talents - Vanessa May, Erin Chapin, and Caitlin Gowdey - they seamlessly combine soul-touching harmonies, varitextured instrumentals, and poignant lyrical content into an unusually beautiful sonic tapestry. Pairing their voices with an ever-changing amalgamation of acoustic and slide guitar, keys, upright bass, voice, harmonica, and an array of more unexpected vocal techniques like beat-boxing and mouth trumpet, they create engaging and emotionally moving live performances.
Their music delves deeply into themes of the human experience: hopeful love, honest self-reflection, and pursuits of social justice. Their latest album, "American Dream, crystallizes these ideas in acoustic amber, encapsulating a beautiful new direction for their evolving sound.
