Doran [Cassette]

Taking their name from a children’s fantasy novel, Doran is a four-person freak folk collective hailing from rural Virginia, New York City, and the Pacific Northwest. Together, singer and banjo-player Elizabeth LaPrelle (Anna & Elizabeth), multi-media performance artists and musicians Channing Showalter and Annie Schermer (West of Roan), and songwriter and producer Brian Dolphin draw from their respective work in story, song, archetype and image, and advance it into an untapped experimental terrain that is newly raw, wintry, moody, and tender.
