Seven Days: Vermont's Independent Voice

In Sync

From battling egos to unrealistic fan expectations to the ultimate band breakups, supergroups have proved to be a touch-and-go concept over the years. Even success stories, such as Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, have hit their share of roadblocks. Though the latest venture of folkies Eliza Gilkyson, John Gorka and Lucy Kaplansky is billed as a supergroup, “Red Horse isn’t an attempt at group-forming as much as it is an exercise in collaboration,” writes Vintage Guitar magazine. The three show that they’ve learned how to share as they take turns fronting each other’s best-known songs. Watch them do the ol’ switcheroo in sparse acoustic arrangements and vocal counterpoint that hints at harmony offstage, too.
