American folk singer and songwriter, Siskind’s love of progressive rock and fusion shine through to create a new incarnation of Appalachian music. Siskind’s direct, story-telling vocal tone, akin to Bonnie Raitt and Brandi Carlile, is a perfect companion to her electric guitar. Siskind grew up in a North Carolina house so steeped in music; she claims it as her first language. “I almost find it hard to talk about my music,” laughs Siskind, “speaking is really my second form of communication.” She has toured with Bonnie Raitt, Lee Ann Womack, Paul Brady, Bon Iver (who also famously covered her “Lovin’s For Fools”), and The Swell Season.
