Sylvan Esso, a duo that casts buoyant folk melodies over beds of skittering synthesizers, formed almost by accident. Singer Amelia Meath and producer Nick Sanborn were in separate bands when Sanborn was tasked with creating a beat-forward remix of a song from Meath's folk group, Mountain Man. That remix proved so rewarding for them both that they decided to form their own band, continuing to meld Meath's playful yet commanding voice with Sanborn's minimalist beat textures.
