Description

From North Carolina, Friction Farm is husband and wife team Aidan Quinn and Christine Stay. This contemporary folk duo combine storytelling, social commentary and humour to create songs of everyday life, local heroes and quirky observations. From ballads to anthems each song is filled with harmony and hope.

Their strong musicianship and keen song-writing sensibilities make Friction Farm instantly likeable. With just two people and two instruments, they create a lot of sound and a diverse repertoire; so widely accessible that they've been asked to open for a range of artists from rockers Bad Company, to the undefineable Tori Amos, to the jazzy Rippingtons. Friction Farm is right at home with all of them.

Friction Farm's sound is built around Aidan's big jangly guitar strum. He'll hypnotize your feet into tapping along, then snap you out of it with some intricate flat picking. Christine has a vocal and lyrical intensity that conveys a wide range of expression, intimate and vulnerable in one song, powerful and angst ridden in the next. With Aidan's vocal thrown in the mix they recall classic 60's harmonies.

Performing internationally and throughout the US, Friction Farm feels at home on the road and on stage. Audiences lean into their stories, laugh at their humour, are inspired to do a little good in the world, and sing along once in a while.
