Annie & Rod Capps

"Songs about broken things and poignant little ponderings are delivered with a rootsy vibe, a touch of twang and a soulful groove. Annie and Rod are on a musical journey that began in 1982, culminating into a symbiotic sound that reflects their deep and intuitive understanding of each other. Annie's disarming, earthy voice and solid command of her guitar are punctuated by Rod's effortless accompaniment and beautiful solo work. Together they weave unforgettable melodies that are at once intricate and sparse - musically completing each others'' sentences. 'Capps has a way of starting a song with an image that's simple, yet arresting enough to propel you through the ensuing developments, which often covers quite a bit of territory.... it's terrific!" (Jim Manheim, Ann Arbor Observer) "Over the years, Annie and Rod have done it all; from rock to musical theater and while they continue to draw from a wide range of genres and influences, what comes out is a hybrid sound all their own. Genuine and playful; effortless and endearing; this duo has been enchanting audiences in quality music venues, house concerts, coffeehouses and festivals throughout their home state of Michigan and beyond." "Annie and Rod Capps write complex, winding melodies ... sliding you into the middle of lives and situations that are always interesting and dotted with real insight."" (Dave Siglin, The Ark) "When I look around the room at an Annie and Rod Capps performance, I see a lot of smiling faces with eyes riveted to the stage ... there is a magic that energizes an audience. I can't wait to bring them back to our concert series!" (Tim Piazza, host of Concerts at the Cabin [indianafolk.org] http://maynardmusic.com/
