Widowspeak

As Widowspeak, Molly Hamilton and Robert Earl Thomas combine hazy dream pop, country twang, and indie pop jangle into music that's understated yet filled with moods that linger. The group's sound was at its foggiest on 2011's Widowspeak, where Thomas cranked out walls of distortion that cocooned Hamilton's moody murmurs. Over time, however, their music grew more refined and eclectic on albums such as 2015's All Yours, which added sparkle to their songwriting and sound, and on 2017's heavier and more aggressive Expect the Best. With 2020's mellow yet politically minded Plum and the dreamy reflections on creativity and change on 2022's Jacket, Widowspeak make increasingly timeless and relevant music.
