Pretty Gritty might be another duo emerging from a sea of female/male acts as of late, but there is nothing typical about these two.  Sarah and Blaine have cultivated a sound that is both timeless and classic, yet they still succeed in bringing something fresh to the table, pushing rootsy-Americana sounds into an edgy, alternative space.  These two have carved out a reputation as a must-see live act, allowing them to open for such acts as Tim O'Brian, Tony Trischka, Chris Eldridge, Rod Picott, Lake Street Dive, Ben Sollee and Joe Newberry.  Both members utilize their multi-instrumental skills to sing, play stringed instruments and hold down back-beats, all simultaneously for a truly engaging experience.  But they are not simply just entertainers.  It is their mesmerizing vocal harmonies and beautifully crafted songwriting that really tug at the heartstrings and earn them life-long fans.

“There is something simply divine coming out of Portland Oregon and it's the duo Pretty Gritty. Their release Seven Year Itch is a colorful palette of their songwriting and multi-instrumental skills. Sarah and Blaine have a sound that is a timeless treasure, they also succeed in bringing something fresh to the rootsy-Americana genre. Pretty Gritty is a flawless fit.” -Lou Flesh, No Depression Magazine

"On new album Seven Year Itch, co-vocalists and bandleaders Sarah Wolff and Blaine Heinonen sing songs that feel alive, like make-out sessions on warm lake sand and tasting raw honey; smelling sweet pine and sipping expensive whiskey by the jar. Like a male-female Everly Brothers they vocalize and play what's come to be known as Americana." -Lou Flesh, Portland Music News

The duo originally formed in Maryland in 2010, but after completing 2 (completely DIY) National tours, Sarah and Blaine decided to relocate to Portland, OR.  At first they hit the streets, busking downtown,  but it didn't take long for folks to take notice.  Pretty Gritty are now playing at venues all over the Pacific Northwest. They have successfully completed several tours, covering ground all over OR, WA, MT, CO, UT and AK.

In 2015, Pretty Gritty began their relationship with producers Fred Cannon & Paul Buono at Creative and Dreams Music Network, LLC (Nashville, TN) where they recorded their Lonely Road EP (released Feb 2016).  Pleased with the experience, everyone decided to continue the relationship and return to the studio to record a full album, Seven Year Itch.
