Expressive, dynamic, centered, passionate, flirtatious…  Music that lays a deeply captivating groove entwined with intoxicating melodies that instantly catch hold and stay with you. From Portland, Oregon, She Said Yes impacts listeners with songs that echo the sound of the human condition.  Their sound… raw, acoustic and beautiful rings with despair, anger, hope and glory, forging a powerful sense of connection to their music and their muse. 

A seven-year history has seen She Said Yes from acoustic sets at coffeehouses to headlining festivals to opening and touring with both national and international acts.  Their most recent release “Times Garden” (March 2005), recorded by Grammy nominated and Emmy award winning producer and composer Ron Saltmarsh (Harvest Records, Orem, Utah) has received critical acclaim as well as local and regional airplay.

            Mixing elements of rock, acoustic pop, and contemporary piano, their music has a unique, reflective, and often cathartic vulnerability.  A husband and wife duo, their friendship and love for one another shows through on stage adding an intangible and refreshingly unforced element to their music.  There is a trust between them; a willingness to fall that is mirrored in their audience.

Intent upon reaching the commonality in us all through their impassioned songwriting and performance, She Said Yes has earned an enthusiastic grassroots following and has critics saying:

“Beautiful, haunting melodies scored with dark emotional hues and true musicianship.”  -Robyn Shanti, KBOO 90.7 fm

 “Sensual, stirring music, She Said Yes brings an edge of integrity, honesty, and a deep sense of artistry to an industry guided by trends.” – Monte Thompson, Coeur d’Alene Press.

               Ever evolving, She Said Yes continues to write, record, tour and grow, finding their muse in the rhythm of life, and listening for the echo.
