Weda Skirts

The Skirts hail from Chase County Kansas. The Skirts were born when former Elexa & The Hitchhikers members Elexa Dawson and Melissa Tastove joined with their friend Sarah Bays, who had recently taken up the upright bass in the summer of '09. Emily Wilson was quick to join them on mandolin. Rachel Allai was added the night before she recorded "Many Moons", The Skirts' first full-length studio album with her fiddle. These women continue to grow and evolve as a group, keeping originals as the core of their repertoire, but throwing in their home-made renditions of popular rock and folk songs.
