When Alyssa Stanley hears two people with beautiful harmonies, she goes down an Internet rabbit hole to find out if they are together as a couple.
“ It’ s rarely people who are just super talented and decided to sing something that day,” she said.“ Really great blending occurs when there’ s a deep familiarity and comfort.”
That type of intimacy is even visually apparent with The House Sparrows: The way Alyssa angles her bow and body toward her husband, Matt; the way the corners of his eyes crinkle when her strings sing with his guitar’ s.
Their relationship fledged from a love of music.
