Cora Sone
Cora Sone is a light heavy band from Baltimore. The trio features singer-songwriter Abby Becker on lead vocals and guitar, Patrick McMinn on modular synth, bass and keys, and Sam Balcom on drums. We achieve dreamy, glitched out, stuttering, and utterly unique sound by sending Becker’s lead vocals through the modular synth. The band started with a question: what happens when two people are playing one instrument at the same time? We grew to embrace rhythmic divergence, allowing time to expand and collapse in a style evocative of Becker's background in Klezmer music. This feeling of waiting and momentum serves as a vehicle for songs about imminence, the ethics of love, and heartbreak in the face of the every day world. Cora Sone has appeared with Eze Jackson, War on Women, Wume, and Caleb Stine.
