Comments: From the promoter: "[T]he Portland witch-folk band Lenore. [was] formed by two songwriters, Rebecca Marie Miller and Joy Pearson... [Edward] Cameron and [Jessie] Dettwiler flesh out Lenore.'s songs with an arranging bed based on Cameron's unique nylon string guitar playing and Dettwiler's lush cello lines. Even though Lenore.'s debut self-titled album can easily reference everything from Fleetwood Mac to Simon & Garfunkel, from the Everly Brothers to Enya, the main goal was to make something that sounded different. To make music that brought together the glorious uprising of their vocals and harmonies, the stark intimacy of the lyrics, and the open-gazed sense of place that comes from the beautiful sweeping vistas of the Pacific Northwest... RIYL: Joseph, Fleet Foxes, Neko Case".
