With roots in British and American folk, The Black Feathers’ magical harmonies intertwine with gorgeous ballads and side-splitting humor. English husband-wife duo Ray Hughes and Sian Chandler weave the spirit of traditional UK folk with acoustic indie rock, reminding listeners of the era of Steeleye Span. Hughes’ guitar work and the duos' emotive harmony vocals are pure magic. Their music moves easily between styles like folk, Americana, and acoustic indie without ever losing its focus on strong songwriting and clear, expressive performances. It’s a sound that has carried them from the UK to festivals across the U.S., including Philadelphia Folk Festival, Kate Wolf Music Festival, and AmericanaFest, as well as official showcases at multiple Folk Alliance conferences. SAMPLE SONG “…stunning harmonies that were so good it reminded me of seeing Gillian Welch and David Rawlings” –No Depression “The Black Feathers are acoustic, but with enough power and force to drive a sledgehammer.” –Roots Magazine “Sheer poetic beauty both lyrically and musically.” –Cryptic Rock Interspersed with their sparkling ballads they share a ripping sense of humor that never fails to leave the audience in stitches.

BIO: What is Lorem Ipsum? Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum. Why do we use it? It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using 'Content here, content here', making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for 'lorem ipsum' will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose (injected humour and the like). ﻿
