Palmyra is a folk trio from the Shenandoah Valley in Virginia and now based out of Richmond Va aka RVA. Teddy, Manoa, and Sasha have personalities that spill out all over the stage and feel like friendly strangers you strike up a conversation with outside a gas station, waiting for the car to fill. Their lyrics ponder an intimate, contemplative side of things. Sasha sings lead vocals and their voice drips with a beautiful desperation, every single word holding an earnestness you don’t find just anywhere anymore. Teddy and Manoa’s harmonies are screw-tight, and the collective sound compliments the guitar, mandolin, and upright bass like whipped cream compliments peach cobbler.
