Vocal Few
| Tags : folk, Kristie MacDonald, matt macdonald, pop, Rock, The Classic Crime, Vocal FewVocal Few will release their debut ep, “She’ll Be Right” on January 10th. Once in a while things just happen because they make sense. Vocal Few is Matt MacDonald (singer/songwriter of The Classic Crime) and his beautiful wife Kristie (singer/pianist/lover of Matt MacDonald). For years Kristie pled with Matt to record songs with her, but Matt, being lazy and a bad husband, always thought “Ugh, that sounds like a lot of work,” and shifted topics whenever the project was brought up. In March of 2011, Matt and Kristie were surprised by a little line on a pregnancy test. It especially shocked Matt, who eventually realized through a long chain of epiphanies, “Oh crap! How are we going to pay for this?” Kristie smiled. “The EP, of course.”
