Night Genes

The story

Night Genes is the musical brainchild of Eric Ingersoll, who began writing these songs in his notebook as he took in rainy summer days in England, crowded city streets in China, and trips home. And that’s where this project started in earnest, in Ingersoll’s hometown, Boise, Idaho, a city that invokes the Old West as it informs the folkloric qualities of his material. These are dark, folky songs, sung in a bold baritone that engenders a certain rawness.
