This Michigan-based pleasantly aggressive folk duo Nervous but Excited is an incredibly unique harmony built upon songwriters and multi-instrumentalists Kate Peterson and Sarah Cleaver. Road warriors to the core since 2005, their endless passion has landed them on stages with folks like Ani Difranco, Iron and Wine, Utah Phillips, Catie Curtis, Toshi Reagon, Ferron, Girlyman and Cheryl Wheeler, to name a few. Backed up by an arrangement of guitars, banjo, mandolin and bass, their live show will bounce you through a variety of emotions and genres, always keeping you guessing which is next. Their original repertoire ranges in topic from smart, introspective narratives to the tactfully political… interspersed with songs of love and loss that will undoubtedly tug on your heart and their vast array of cover choices will definitely have you dancing. You might cry, you’ll definitely laugh, and they hope you’ll leave feeling that your heart has grown just a little larger.
