I am A. Wolf and Her Claws.

A. Wolf and Her Claws is a 4 piece electro-pop outfit that makes fresh content

In 2011, Aby Wolf bared her claws: drummer/vibrophonist Joey Van Phillips, keyboardist/vocalist Linnea Mohn, and synthesist/programmer Jesse Whitney. AWHC dropped their eponymous first album in April 2012 and are poised to leave more than a tiny scratch. Recent years have seen singer and songwriter Aby Wolf develop into a shining force brightening nearly every corner of the diverse Minneapolis music scene from indie hip-hop to improvisational jazz and avant-folk.

Her new group’s otherworldly textures are playfully propelled by Whitney’s forward-thinking electronic production woven with Van Phillip’s expert vibraphone and acoustic kit work. The crisp beats and synth revelry lay a perfect foundation for Wolf and Mohn’s stirring harmonized vocals. This mix often leaves dance enthusiasts with much to embrace, however, the quartet is delighted to blindside with an array of minimal, tender bliss-scapes that could never be confused with dance begging. No matter what form A. Wolf and Her Claws takes, the result is indeed an elegant mauling.
