Fresh from the bill of the 2010 Ann Arbor Folk Festival, the "pleasantly aggressive" Nervous but Excited offers dead-on harmony: two songwriters (Kate Peterson and Sarah Cleaver), two singers, two guitars, a mandolin, a violin, a few harmonicas, some vaguely choreographed dancing, and a lot of laughter.

Their original repertoire ranges in topic from smart, introspective narratives to the tactfully political, and they still dabble in the love/post-love variety of song every now and then. Since 2004, Nervous but Excited has released three full-length albums and three EPs, and they've played with established artists like Ani DiFranco, Melissa Ferrick, Ferron, Toshi Reagon, the late Utah Phillips, and Girlyman. Their latest, "Anchors," they say, is " the first 100 percent carbon-footprint-free CD release in history (at least that we can find)."
