Sallie Ford & The Sound Outside

Event information

SALLIE FORD & THE SOUND OUTSIDE (USA)

Portland, Oregon’s Sallie Ford & The Sound Outside vigorously mine a sweet spot between modern and vintage. Sallie’s voice has elicited comparisons to classic jazz and blues icons, yet it is stoked with the fire of youth and rebellion, too, an instrument capable of conveying raw emotion and nuanced artistry in the same breath.

The Portland quartet has steadily ascended through the ranks since 2008, earning a growing following throughout the Pacific Northwest as well as being voted Best New Band of 2010 in local alt-magazine Willamette Week. Ardent evangelizing by nationally-recognized peers like the Avett Brothers has augmented that momentum.

Now, with the release of “Dirty Radio”, Sallie Ford & The Sound Outside offers the most fully-realized example of its aesthetic yet.

Recorded by Adam Selzer (Norfolk & Western), with a few additional tracks overseen by Mike Coykendall (M. Ward, She & Him etc), it was released in the USA through Partisan Records, home to Deer Tick, Heartless Bastards, Dolorean and other fine acts. It’s released in Europe on Fargo Records.
