Just plain great, clearly destined for stardom.EastBaExpress(SanFrancisco)They have the kind ochemistry that country-rock legends are made of. -SeattlePost-IntelligencerWhat an amazing band. They give me hope for the future. - Rosanne CashDusk is a bittersweet time of day. Theres no other point in the suns arcthat captures the imagination quite like it. Maybe the Nashville-basedalt. folk-pop trio The Bittersweets cant literally splash a sunset across the sky, but they bring the same striking contrast of shadow andluminescence to the ears.The Bittersweets Chris Meyers (guitar, keyboards, vocals), Hannah Prater(vocals, guitar) and Steve Bowman (drums) live up to their name. They fuse yellows and blues, sunniness and melancholy, with evocative lyricsand lush arrangements, transcendent melodies and Praters alluring voice.On every track of their new album, Goodnight, San Francisco, TheBittersweets weave a captivating tension between hope and poignancy thatrings true.Goodnight, San Francisco, flows seamlessly through eleven gorgeous moodpieces. Lex Price桵indy Smith producer and sideman條ent his delicate producing touch, and brought in a perfectly sympathetic team of players:steel guitarist Russ Pahl (Don Williams), bassist Dave Jacques (John
Prine), guitarist Doug Lancio (Patty Griffin), cellist David Henry (BenFolds), organ player John Deaderick (EmmylouHarris) and others. GRAMMY Award winner Jason Lehning (Guster) also lenthis mixing and playing abilities to the project.Originally a San Francisco based duo, The Bittersweets first EP(self-released in 2005), quickly became a KFOG favorite. This landed Hannah and Chris a three month stint on KFOGs Local Artist of the Monthseries and after his hearing a few demos, the jumping on board ofcurrent drummer Steve Bowman (Third Eye Blind, Counting Crows). In 2006The Bittersweets released their debut full length album, The Life You Always Wanted, to resounding critical acclaim and success. With songs featured on the ABC drama Men in Trees and the TNT drama Rapture, its nosurprise The Bittersweets were praised as just plain great and clearlydestined for stardom by the East Bay Express.Just like dusk, the Bittersweets songs have a stirring,not-neatly-sewn-up quality thats hard to shake. And thats just thepoint. Says the bands primary songwriter, Chris Meyers, I think art isat its best when its asking questions rather than giving answers.
