Coyote Grace
COYOTE GRACE is Joe Stevens, a transman singer/songwriter from California and graduate of Cornish College of the Arts, backed up by Ingrid Eyen on vocals and upright bass, originally hailing from the hills of Southeastern Ohio. Partners on and off stage, their love of music and for each other permeates every song, conveyed through smooth harmonies, driving roots rhythms, and captivating lyrics of raw life experience. Drawing from a wealth of Americana traditions, from blues to bluegrass, COYOTE GRACE builds on the legacy of singer/songwriters born to boldly transform the face of American folk music, such as Joni Mitchell, James Taylor, Gillian Welch, Bob Dylan, and Ani Difranco. COYOTE GRACE uses acoustic folk instrumentation and subconscious wordcraft to twist and mold traditional folk forms into a new breed of complex, soulful songsmithing, creating timeless yet unique snapshots into the core of human folly and triumph.
