“Deep, intellectual and engaging songs that defy norms of genre and performance”
Ember & Ash
Fiddle * Guitar * Fire
Ember & Ash, the duo forged by Erin Zindle and Alex Holycross, is as captivating and dangerous as a spark on the wind in the dry season. Armed with fiddle and guitar, these two MIchigan songwriters have had long careers, both defying genre boundaries in their own respective bands (The Native Howl’s “Thrash Grass” and The Ragbirds’ edgy global folk-rock)
Alex & Erin’s voices curl together like smoky ribbons floating above a wild, elemental energy. In their live performances the duo seem to come more alive with each note, stoking a heat that threatens to burn the whole place down

“Ember and Ash. Born in dark and desperate times, this unlikely songwriting partnership delivers deep, intellectual and engaging songs that defy norms of genre and performance. With each partner simultaneously complementing and contrasting the other through songs of unexpected melody and lush harmony, Ember and Ash are relentlessly entertaining and a must-see tonic for the challenges of our shared modern existence”.
