ABOUT THE ARTIST
Brooklyn band She Keeps Bees features Jessica Larrabee on vocals and guitar and Andy LaPlant on drums. Formed in 2006, the New York duo play raw, stripped-down blues-rock and have drawn comparisons with Patti Smith, Cat Power and White Stripes (in reverse!)
Their debut album ‘Minisink Hotel’ was released in 2006 and was described by NYC’s Other Music as ‘the best album you’ve ever heard.’
Their sophomore full-length album ‘Nests’ was described by The Observer as ‘sparse, soulful and defiantly retro’, while their third LP released in 2011,‘Dig On’ received high praise from the BBC as an “album of fire, spirit and sweat.’ Drowned In Sound promise ‘she (Larrabee) has amazing control over her vocals, able to simultaneously be fiery and reserved, seductive and vaguely crude.’
She Keeps Bees are ready to give you a taste of what’s got these music critics talking. This music is simple, gritty and a show you don’t want to miss.
