Widowspeak<br />
Morricone inspired Mysticism By Ed Guardaro / Photo by Danny Krug<br />
Widowspeak emanates a strangebeautiful<br />
mysterious nostalgia that<br />
only lingers deep within old souls.<br />
<strong>The</strong>ir music is unobtrusive – it takes its<br />
time and slowly Molly Hamilton’s vocal melodies<br />
seep through Robert Earl Thomas’ searing leads<br />
and Michael Stasiak’s steady groove.<br />

Old musical acquaintances from Tacoma, Washington,<br />
Michael and Molly decamped to New York after a label that they<br />
contributed to fell apart. Many moons later Michael urged Molly<br />
– who had little faith in her electric guitar skills and showmanship<br />
– to acquire a used Danelectro and start writing songs.<br />
Through mutual friends, Rob was called in to a living room<br />
practice session, plugged his guitar into Molly’s stereo, and<br />
the band was born. <strong>The</strong> three, who were still searching for an<br />
appropriate name, began to write a large amount of music.
