“Beautiful… #chills”

“Unique voices and rare musicians"

Max Hatt / Edda Glass’s award-winning original music has taken them across the country from NPR and PBS to New York City’s Lincoln Center, D.C.’s Kennedy Center, the Sundance Film Festival, and Wilco's Solid Sound, including tours funded by Jazz Road/Doris Duke/Mellon Foundations. New York Theatre Guide calls Glass’s voice “one of a kind...you cannot confuse her with another artist,” while Hatt's guitar work has “an incomparable spook” according to Nashville Scene. Hailed as “unique,” “evocative,” “mesmerizing,” “haunting,” “cinematic,” not to mention “elegantly funky,” the combined effect of Max Hatt / Edda Glass is a swoon-inducing soundscape that “creates a vastness within its quiet,” making “one feel both lost and found, all at once."
