Album Notes

Formed in July of 2002, Pelusa is an alt-country/folk duo from Seattle. Two people write and sing their own songs from different backgrounds and perspectives, resulting in music that has folk, rootsy blues, and traditional country sensibilities with an emphasis on melody and vocal harmony. These are songs with vulnerability and wit - from the barest guitar and vocal story to a rambling talking blues with mandolin and harmonica. At home with the intimacy of a quiet coffeehouse to the more vulgar poetry of the roadhouse, Pelusa delivers folk music...for all you folks. Pelusa is: Moe Provencher-mandolin, acoustic guitar, harmonica, vocals Mike Mcdermott-bass, acoustic guitar, vocals. Pelusa's full length debut "where you were before" was independently released in January 2005.
