Witches is the new rock band from singer/songwriter Cara Beth Satalino. Satlino’s earthy vocals have always brought to mind female artists like PJ Harvey or even Chan Marshall but with Witches they are giving a setting that accentuates her pipes even more. Here Satilino’s stunning vocals and powerful songwriting collide with walls of cascading guitar rock. It is a striking combination to behold. The hyper guitars wail behind Satalino as the bass and drums keep up at a steady pace. Mining indie rock circa the mid-nineties, Witches won’t grab you with immediate hooks but they make up for it in the long run with superb songwriting that beckons you to listen closer. What starts out as something ordinary soon turns into an amazing and beautiful display. Oh, and those lyrics…
“When the final stone is cast, we’re gonna end up undefeated – all humming to the car alarm. I guess its never easy. We all are underpaid. Oh, but we love it anyway. I’m looking forward to it.”
I can not wait to hear what Witches do with a full album’s worth of material. Until then these three songs will do just fine.
Big Rivers

Yeah I like this. I also like the new layout will.
