Nervous but Excited comes to Grand Rapids


By: Brittney Schering

Nervous but Excited's new release, "Just the Two of Us (Our Duo Doing Duos)," comes with a fall tour of the east coast and midwest. It will stop in Grand Rapids at the Division Ave Arts Collective at 115 S. Division on Saturday, Sept. 25 at 8:00 p.m. with local artist Jes Kramer.

Michigan-based singer-songwriters Kate Peterson and Sarah Cleaver, otherwise known as Nervous but Excited, designed the new project as a way to push their boundaries both musically and vocally. The six-song EP features a raw, yet sweet-sounding compilation of tracks.

On the new EP, the girls cover the Roxette's "The Look," and K-Ci & Jojo's "All My Life," showing their silliness as well as a sultry side.

NBE has been touring semi-nationally since early 2004 and have released three full-length albums. One of which, Anchors, was the first 100% sustainable CD to be released.

NBE has shared the stage with Ani Difranco, Iron and Wine, Utah Phillips, Ben Gibbard, Catie Curtis, Cheryl Wheeler, and many more.
