The chamber pop duo known as Gracie and Rachel have\\xa0always had a kind of yin and yang quality to them: Gracie Coates, the pop songwriter at the piano; Rachel Ruggles, the classically trained violinist. "Blending baroque elements, ethereal soundscapes, and penetrating vulnerability, the duo creates an emotionally haunting sound" with an electric energy, (Righteous Babe Records.)

\\n

The high school friends from Berkeley, California\\xa0were operating out of Brooklyn, where the duo made its reputation, but Gracie has moved to upstate New York.\\xa0Rather than signaling an end, though, Gracie\\u2019s move has spawned a new collection of songs, called Nowhere Now Here, which focuses on the continued connection between the two.\\xa0Gracie and Rachel play some of these new songs, in-studio.\\xa0
