Late Tuesday’s approach is deceptively simple. With the disarming facade of three young, pretty girls with guitars and pianos, you expect a simple ordeal of acoustic coffeeshop-folk, but Late Tuesday has made a name for themselves by overturning expectations.
Their style embodies a full range of influences, from low-key singer-songwriters like Aimee Mann to big-sound folk-pop stars like Sarah McLachlan and even Ben Folds. Writing all their own material and playing all their own instruments, this trio stands out from the crowd with powerful melody, complex harmonies, and an uncommon ability to stir the emotions.
Late Tuesday formed in early 2000 and are a three-piece consisting of Dana Little (vocals, keys), Tara Ward (vocals, guitar, keys) and Jocelyn Feil {vocals, guitar). They soon acquired a backup rhythm section to fill out their sound, but the girls are the heart of the band, sharing vocal and songwriting duties equally between the three of them. This effortless blend of three distinct individual styles creates a dynamic that is always fresh and full of motion. It shines especially bright in their fun, energetic live shows, which have drawn crowds to such notable venues as the EMP, Mt. Baker Theater, WWU, The Paradox, The Tractor, Folklife Festival, and sold-out BlueTree productions.
Late Tuesday’s latest release sees them developing and maturing as artists, with a new level of emotional and sonic complexity, diversity, and experimentation that pushes the boundaries of the folk-pop genre. This strong step forward promises to widen their appeal to previously untouched corners of the music world as they continue to share their unique voice throughout the western U.S. and beyond
