The Pearl Company

Dala: Friday, March 19. Doors at 7:30, show at 8:00. $15 advance, $20 at the door.  ”Their harmonies just give you goose bumps.” This acoustic duo from Toronto is made up of Sheila Carabine and Amanda Walther who tie pop sensibility, sublime singing and spacious arrangements into the irresistible knot of Dala.  Self-described as on the “poppier side of folk and the folkier side of pop,” they weave beautiful flights of melody and harmony, reminiscent of the Everly Brothers and Emmylou Harris.  They are also consummate comediennes, keeping us thoroughly entertained between their exquisite songs.  It seems they are selling out wherever they play in the U.S; they are actually playing the New Orleans Jazz Festival with singers such as Aretha Franklin in April!  Shall we show them they are equally appreciated here?  Hmmm?  www.dalagirls.com
