Biography

Grown where the hard lines of Chicago's urban landscape marry the first rows of Indiana corn fields, Coyote Talk is a classic yet daring band. Members Josh Frigo and Alex Dobbert seek to honor their midwestern roots while pushing the boundaries of heartland rock. The duo met while attending college near Indianapolis. Dropping out of school to pursue work as musician, Josh and Alex moved to Nashville, TN, whose country traditions found their way into the music of Coyote Talk. Since then the two have toured the midwest, worked with local Indy and Nashville artists, and released their debut full-length album, "Sister," and follow-up single "Don't Let Them Break Your Heart." Now the two are back with a new album "Shangri-La." "Shangri-La" is a thrilling, epic listen, drawing on influences as diverse as Laurel Canyon and 50's era Nashville country. It's a promising return for engineer Alex and producer Josh and an enormous step forward for Coyote Talk. Its ambitious arrangements and haunting vocals are a sign of exciting things to come from these two artists. Coyote Talk is Josh Frigo (Vox/Guitars) and Alex Dobbert (Drums).
