If back in the early eighties Gillian Welch and Bonnie Raitt cornered Townes Van Zandt at a party, engaged in a massive love-in, and produced a female offspring, she might sound a little something like Seadar Rose. A roaming troubadour at heart, Seadar's honest songwriting and sweet southern twang are steeped in her North Carolina roots.

In 2007 Seadar founded indie-folk project Screen Door Porch with Jackson, Wyoming songwriter Aaron Davis. This spring, Screen Door Porch will embark on a Southeastern Spring tour, in support of their new album, Screen Door Porch. Recorded in December 2009 in Austin, Texas, the duo's debut album showcases songs steeped in heart-wrenching tales, to down home Americana rock.
