Chicago Folk & Roots Festival 2005
Aerin Tedesco & Andrea Bunch
Saturday, July 9th at 2:35PM on the Main Stage

Vision and chemistry are two words that continually surface in trying to describe the songwriting duo of Andrea & Aerin. Known primarily for gorgeous vocal harmonies and stellar songwriting, Andrea & Aerin do not settle for the the standard folk stasis of guitar and voice. Instead they employ a wide palette of sounds and instruments from Aerin's ever-present tenor guitar to Andrea's computer generated tones. Their live show ranges from traditional acoustic folk shows to laptop tinged anti-folk and back again. The duo's 2004 appearance at the National Women's Music Festival was described as "music that swings from thunderous electronic rants to breathtaking acoustic ballads".

In 2004 the duo supported their separate solo albums Numinous (Andrea) and Birthmark (Aerin) by performing together at many colleges and festivals including Iowa Women’s Music Fest, Estrojam, National Women’s Music Fest, and Queer is Folk. Along the way they have shared the stage with talent such as Dar Williams, Melissa Ferrick, Michelle Malone, Kinnie Starr, Lowen & Navarro, Zoe Lewis, Gail Ann Dorsey and Ember Swift. They are currently holed up in their home studio working on a co-written album, but will step out to see the light of day at this year's Folk & Roots.
