Finding perfect harmony
When Jesse Woods , a lifelong Texan, and Zella Day , then based in L.A., first met in 2021, they knew they had something special. What blossomed was a romance and a new band,, which calls back to iconic country duos like Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers, George Jones and Tammy Wynette. With new single “Sex and Rage” out last month, and now that Day has relocated from California – about as Austin a story as you get – they talk about ACL’s surprise hand in their matchmaking.
We’re also running a business together, essentially. That’s kind of the less romantic part of this. If you really want to start a project, make the band, it comes down to a lot of choices, a lot of decisions that you have to make and agree upon. We got really lucky in finding the third member of our band, Beau Bedford, who produced the tracks for our debut record and plays guitar. You’ll see him on tour with us.
We wanted it to be no backing tracks, for it to just kind of be raw, two people singing that spend a lot of time singing together, and to really highlight that. I think this is country and classic American music.
