Ripton Community Coffeehouse

Past event
Mar 4, 2017, 7 to 10 PM

We first Heard Quiles & Cloud the year they won the 2014 FreshGrass Duo contest. We came into the hall after they started thier set, heard Maria's beautiful voice, and thought, we're hearing something really special...and we were!
We're so glad they can be with us in Ripton.

Several years of touring and spending nearly every day together has allowed Quiles & Cloud to develop a unique sound - one that is characterized by soulful melodies, close harmonies, and interweaving guitar lines that owe as much to jazz and classical music as to folk and bluegrass. The addition of Oscar Westesson (upright bass) in 2013 pushed them even further as songwriters, resulting in darker, more complex, and more dissonant arrangements.

Their sound has struck a chord with audiences all over the country. Folk Alley has lauded the group’s “continued ability to combine subtle precision with stark grit and creative exploration.” Acoustic Guitar has called them "a compelling new voice on the Americana scene.” Quiles & Cloud have now played hundreds of shows, won the 2014 FreshGrass Duo Award, and caught the attention of Grammy Award-winning banjo player Alison Brown - who produced their third album Beyond The Rain, which be released on Compass Records. We hope you can join us!
