Cicada Rhythm

A Georgia duo whose music runs the gamut from upbeat acoustic folk with a Southern swing to powerfully atmospheric indie rock, Cicada Rhythm is a collaboration between guitarist and vocalist David Kirslis and bassist and vocalist Andrea DeMarcus, who met in 2011. Kirslis and DeMarcus became partners in music and in life, and started playing shows together as Cicada Rhythm. The duo issued their crowd-funded debut album, Mantra, in 2014. It received positive notices in the press, and Cicada Rhythm set out on a nationwide tour in support. As the duo's reputation grew, Normaltown Records signed them to a recording contract. After releasing a 7" vinyl single in June 2015, the duo's eponymous, second full-length album arrived in late October 2015. ~ Mark Deming
