90-Mile Portage
Submitted by Jamie Kallestad on
90-Mile Portage is a collaboration between singer-songwriter Jamie Kallestad and multi-instrumentalist/composer Ben Cosgrove.
The pair originally conceived of 90-Mile Portage as a break from their day jobs: Jamie regularly tours with a bluegrass band, while Ben has a career as an independent composer/performer. The music of 90-Mile Portage is an engaging fusion of the two members' distinct musical styles. Set to Cosgrove's lush and unconventional arrangements, Kallestad's songs take flight, his lake-clear vocals and needlepoint lyrical observations carried aloft on strange and beautiful instrumental layers.
