Details:
The Near Misses are an all-female quartet featuring some of North Carolinaâs finest vocal & songwriting talent. The group performs an eclectic blend of originals, drawing upon American roots, rock, pop, contemporary folk, country, and jazz influences. Each member is a gifted songwriter and musician in her own right - Shana Blake (bass), Reeve Coobs (acoustic guitar, djembe), Eva Gael (acoustic guitar), and Etta Lea (electric guitar, mandolin) - but when these four young women come together with their songs and harmonies, something truly magical happens.

The Near Misses have been the recipient of the âBest New Bandâ Award in the Arts & Entertainment category of the Creative Loafing Readersâ Choice Awards, and in 2006, Creative Loafing named the group the âBest Bandâ (Readersâ Choice) in its âBest of Charlotte: International Edition.â In 2007, the band won "Best Vocal Harmony" in the Best of Charlotte Awards.

Marigold is the first studio album by the Near Misses. They will continue touring in the Southeast and along the East Coast to promote the new CD!
