CD RELEASE!

Michigan-based Pleasantly Aggressive Folk Duo Nervous but Excited (Kate Peterson & Sarah Cleaver) is dead-on harmony: two songwriters, two singers, three guitars, a mandolin, a violin, a few harmonicas, some vaguely choreographed dancing and a lot of laughter. Their original repertoire ranges in topic from smart, introspective narratives to the tactfully political, and they still dabble a bit in the love/post-love variety every now and then. Since 2004, they have released two full-length albums and 3 EPs and have played with many established artists such as Melissa Ferrick, Catie Curtis, Ferron, Toshi Reagon, Utah Phillips, The Butchies, Alix Olson, Bitch, Girlyman, Pamela Means and Ember Swift. From coffee shops to festival stages they've lead people in laughing, singing and handclapping throughout the country for nearly four years.
