Dana Falconberry's voice is a study in paradox: delicately soft
yet powerfully dynamic, warmly inviting yet brazenly defiant,
emotive yet wise beyond her 28 years. She moved to Austin in
2005 after studying at Hendrix College in Conway, AR, and the
Michigan native graced Peter & the Wolf's Lightness with an
ethereal beauty that buffered Red Hunter's deep croon. Last
year's debut EP, Paper Sailboat, established Falconberry as one
of Austin's most promising singer-songwriters in her own right,
encompassing a plaintive yearning borne within the title track
and "My Sweetheart, My Dear," while "Leave in the Middle of the
Night" surged with a bluesy restlessness, and the astounding
"Sadie" anchored the EP with a ballad of loss. |

Oh
Skies of Grey, Falconberry's full-length debut scheduled for
release next year, expands her range even further with a full
band and Gina Dvorak and Erica Maassen's enveloping harmonies.
