Ménage
Ménage is a swing/soul/roots band. Original members Mary Ellen Bush and Sarah McDonald are now joined by Melissa Hyman to create a sound that is intimate, harmonic, and invokes melodic landscapes of our hills. Folk-rooted, the trio will take you on a journey unlike most, where bluesy swing is conveyed in rolling grooves ranging from rich smokey vocal textures to rambunctious roadhouse to whimsical. Sweet harmonies and distinct songwriting are the backbone of this band’s novel style. Solid stringed riffs laced with distant artful flashes of harmonica and accordion are siren songs to those lucky enough to be within earshot. The songwriting and the talent of this trio/duo will draw you in, and bring you back to see them again.
