Many Miles From Blacksburg

Biography:

Goodnight, Texas is the transcontinental garage appalachian collaboration of San Francisco’s Avi Vinocur (formerly of The Stone Foxes) and North Carolina’s Patrick Dyer Wolf. Previously known as P. Wolf and Avi, both songwriters are old souls in modern bodies: the duo pays as much homage to 19th and early 20th century folk, and blues, as to The Tallest Man on Earth, Ryan Adams, and The Fleet Foxes. Their pre-debut LP Coattails (2010) is a stripped-down and earthen set, in turn raucous and sparse.
