BIO


Pretty Little Feet is an acoustic music duo based in Bellingham, Washington. They play old-time song and tune, a wide-ranging repertoire of selections from the traditional canon and artists from the bygone days of radio up to the present, as well as their own originals. Between the two of them, Matt and Allegra have released five full-length albums and have been included on three compilation albums, two by major record labels Righteous Babe Records and Shut Eye Records. Their newest recording, Through Oak and Ash, was released in June of 2011. They are currently working on a full-length album set for release in late May 2012, of mostly original music, which will be featured in the documentary film, The Mountain Runners.

Pretty Little Feet was born out of a musical friendship dating back ten years between Matt Novak and Allegra Ziffle, when they met in Bellingham and started playing music together. In March 2003 they founded Quickdraw String Band and started performing together on a regular basis. Two years later Allegra left for Olympia and began playing with Fast Rattler and Matt continued on with Quickdraw. After a year in Olympia Allegra moved on to Portland to play with The Mora and Brother Elmore and Matt released his second solo album in 2007. In February of 2009 she came back to Bellingham and they teamed up to form Pretty Little Feet.
