The Amida Bourbon Project

The Amida Bourbon Project features singer/songwriter Aya Inoue on rhythm guitar and vocals, Matt Harpster on lead guitar and an ever evolving cast of characters on instruments. Aya and Matt are often joined by Adam Frehm on lapsteel, Sean Cartney on electric bass, Jason Corbiere on drums, and Jackie Buttolph on vocal harmonies. The songs featured in The Amida Bourbon Project blend americana and folk, showcasing Inoue’s penchant for moody melodies. They are steeped in rich lyrical expressions that combine the surreal with the tangible experiences of everday life. Matt Harpster’s nimble guitar lines embellish this Vermont band’s rootsy sound.
