“Their lyrics are organic and spiritual, reminding listeners of the larger things in life... folk at its purest.” — Girlistic Magazine -- Folk By Association is the duo of Karen Krajacic and Jill Cowen, two multi-instrumental singer/songwriters who have become a grassroots phenomenon. They share eight years, two CDs, 23 states, hundreds of performances and an infinite resolve to carve a career path that lies just outside of the commercial mainstream—all the while operating completely independently of any record label or outside management.
Traveling almost constantly, they’ve played everything from intimate house concerts to large festivals, showcasing their top-notch vocal harmonies and organic blend of guitar and mandolin. Their sound is an eclectic blend of folk, rock, bluegrass, jazz and world influences combined with poetically penned lyrics, resulting in a uniquely inspiring and energetic expansion of contemporary acoustic music.
“Their lyrics are organic and spiritual, reminding listeners of the larger things in life—the earth, hope, risk—and of universal human experiences, like breaking up, the joys and pitfalls of traveling, and self-analyzation... folk at its purest.” — Girlistic Magazine
