Favorite Saints is a Chicago quintet showcasing an impressive range of sounds and expression. Alison Rich and brothers David and Allen Johnson create a unique mood combining elements of rock with the resonant vocal harmonies and acoustic instruments of folk. Favorite Saints made their recording debut in 2005 with the Southern Gentleman CDEP, and released their first long-player in 2008 titled, 'The Ways We Echo'



Previously: David and Allen's former group, Very Secretary, was formed in 1997 in Champaign, Ill., by Braid drummer Roy Ewing, and David and Allen. Violinist Rachael Dietkus (City on Film, Days in December, matt pond PA) joined later and added subtle beauty to the band's critically acclaimed 1999 album, "Standing in the Shade" (Mud Records). David and Allen also were members of The One Up Downstairs, which featured Mike Kinsella and Steve Lamos (American Football, Owen). Polyvinyl released The One Up Downstairs three-song EP as a digital download in 2006, a decade after it was recorded.
