TD&KS Episode 212: With musical guest March to May

All the regular Dereck and Kay you like, plus special musical guest March to May.

March To May’s Darren Guyaz (guitar, vocals, keyboard) and Beth Wesche (Celtic harp, vocals)  

first met in December 2012.  By March 2013, the folk/indie/Americana duo had co-written their 

first two songs, by April they had a paid gig under their belts, and by May they had a name and 

shows booked out into the months ahead. Before settling in Seattle, Washington, where the act is 

now based, both Darren and Beth had traversed the Western Hemisphere separately.  Darren 

migrated from the northern Appalachians to his birth-state of Montana, before heading on a South 

American adventure across the Andes mountain range, eventually falling in love with Seattle and 

the Pacific Northwest.  The daughter of a US Foreign Service Officer, Beth also spent time in the 

Andes, as well as a host of US states on both coasts, before moving to Seattle, just blocks from 

where her beloved Celtic harp had been created, years before.  The duo has drawn comparisons to 

acts like The Civil Wars, Damien Rice, the Swell Season, The Banner Days, and Robert Plant and 

Alison Krauss.  The Water’s Edge is the debut release from March To May, out April 25th, 2015.
