Widowspeak

Widowspeak, an indie rock duo from Brooklyn, New York, has maintained a consistent presence in the music scene since its formation, touring and releasing several albums. After releasing their critically acclaimed self-titled debut album ‘Widowspeak’ in August 2011, the Brooklyn-based indie rock duo went on to establish a significant presence in the music scene. The album immediately garnered critical attention, highlighted by their single ‘Harsh Realm’ being featured in an episode of the popular television series ‘American Horror Story’ the same year. Formed in 2010 by Molly Hamilton and Michael Stasiak, Widowspeak quickly expanded its core sound with the addition of guitarist Robert Earl Thomas, laying the groundwork for their distinctive sonic aesthetic.

Following the success of their debut, Widowspeak embarked on extensive touring, solidifying their live performance reputation. During this period in 2012, bassist Pamela Garavano-Coolbaugh joined the band for these acclaimed tours. Hamilton and Thomas then commenced work on their highly anticipated second full-length album, ‘Almanac,’ with recording sessions taking place in a century-old barn in the picturesque Hudson River Valley during late summer 2012. Produced by Kevin McMahon, ‘Almanac’ was released on January 22, 2013, further establishing their unique sound.

The duo continued their consistent discography with their fifth album, ‘Plum,’ in 2020, demonstrating an enduring commitment to their craft and artistic vision. Most recently, Widowspeak unveiled their sixth album, ‘The Jacket,’ on March 11, 2022, further cementing their status as a consistently innovative force in indie rock. The band continues to tour and engage audiences with their evocative soundscapes and compelling live performances, building upon a career that has seen consistent critical acclaim and a steady stream of acclaimed releases since their formation in 2010.
