The Fate and the Fruit is an excellent record from two very talented multi-instrumentalists staking out their spot in contemporary roots music. Hazy nights fueled by whiskey, bonfires, smoke, and smokes. Back Door Porch quietly evokes all this and more on their fantastic sophomore effort, The Fate and the Fruit. Sedar Rose and Aaron Davis' connection is electric and sustains throughout this entire release, occasionally bringing to mind the pairing of Dave Rawlings and Gillian Welch, if it were re-imagined by Ryan Adams and Neko Case. While The Fate and the Fruit progresses, however, it does start...
It's a treat to the ears and soothing to the soul. Jackson Hole based Americana band Screen Door Porch delightfully combined the softer acoustics of Western America with the force of their Southern country vibe into a magnetic, energy-fuelled dialogue between lead vocals Aaron Davies and Seadar Rose. Through a series of contemporary variations on the themes most rooted in American music, Davies' deep, ever so slightly husky tone marries Rose's sultry bluesy nonchalance in colourful conversation. Sometimes they'll oscillate between one and the other, but often they'll let the ongoing back-and-forth turn into heartwarming harmony, [...]
Hailing from the Teton Mountains of Jackson Hole, Wyoming, Screen Door Porch are a Americana band we like on Beat Surrender, their self titled debut from 2010 was a favourite and now they are back with another winner, the mysteriously titled The Fate & The Fruit is out today and available from the band here .

This just in from the Americana dept: time to meet Screen Door Porch, all the way from Jackson Hole, Wyoming. Got a second album coming up which will be called The Fate & The Fruit , and I'm calling on all aficionados of twang to pay some well-deserved attention. Screen Door Porch - Burnin' At Both Ends Screen Door Porch - Devil's Honey
Residents of Jackson Hole, Wyoming, Screen Door Porch’s music evokes open space, dramatic textures, and a genuine character that steeps within your psyche from the first experience. Residing in the country’s least populated state as an Americana / Alt-Country/ Folk band has its own set of demands and challenges but this duo are more than equal to it. Seadar Rose's vocals are a languid, whiskey-smooth drawl that easily stand comparison with Lucinda Williams or Gillian Welch and with Aaron Rose recalling Ryan Adams, the pair harmonise and compliment each other [...]
I'm feeling a very strong and perhaps inappropriate urge to fire up this tiny little feature today (we've done A Tiny Mix highlighting Hypem favorites before - check it here ) and to title it "Hypem Hard-On". But I'm curious, can I use that word? It's vulgarity does not stress me but as I do not bear that particular body part, can I claim an actual hard-on for these jams? Like, is that okay? Fuck it. I'm gonna spend the next half hour making a graphic featuring a gramophone and the word "hard-on". Noble cause. I just [...]
Screen Door Porch are Seadar Rose (Vocals, Acoustic & Electric Guitars) and Aaron Davis (Vocals, 6-string & 12-string Acoustic Guitars, Electric Guitars, Harmonica, Banjo, Electric Dobro, Mandolin) the duo fit snugly into the broad church of Americana with their cultured collection of roots songs gathered together on their self titled début release. Vocal duties are shared and complimentary, Rose is blessed with an expressive earthy voice that sits well with Davis' ragged edged drawl, both come together having already worked solo and release several albums and EP's, for the album they've employed additional musicians to add further colour to their music including piano, cello, fiddle, pedal steel [...]
![Screen Door Porch – Self Titled [Album Review]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/2609831_lg.jpg)
I like it when the band's name conveys exactly what you'll hear after hitting the play button. Previous examples include Slayer, Jon Spencer Blues Explosion, and Daughtry. When we received an email with Screen Door Porch in the title, I was immediately drawn in and their music lived up to the billing. Consisting of a mix of tunes by Seadar Rose and Aaron Davis, the Screen Door Porch sound is perfect for sitting on a tattered porch swing accompanied by some sweet tea. Or sipping whiskey. The album bounces back and forth between alternating male and female lead [...]
Wednesday, May 19, 2010 Well folks, it appears this will be my final post at Side One: Track One for some time. I’ll be spending the summer in Dallas working a consulting internship as part of my degree. A mere three-and-a-half hours up the road is sufficient enough to feel disconnected from the Austin music scene, so I’ll be on extended hiatus. Brad, one half of the Austin-based blog Both Sides Of The Mouth, will be taking over my duties here at Side One. If you haven’t read it before, [...]
We head out west for today's artist... Screen Door Porch . Screen Door Porch is a duo composed of singer/songwriters Seadar Rose and Aaron Davis. As a duo, they are currently based out of Jackson, WY, but both Rose and Davis have roots in the American South (Rose from North Carolina & Davis from Kentucky). It's no surprise then, that their music grows out of the Southern soil as well. For their self-titled debut, Rose and Davis traveled to Austin, TX to record twelve songs [...]
