BOISTER is part of the burgeoning Baltimore music scene that has nurtured the likes of TV On the Radio's Dave Sitek, Celebration, Wilderness, Lungfish, Cass McCombs, Entrance, and More Dogs. Boister (according to Radar magazine) "meshes diverse traditions into something distinctly other, leaving critics groping for adjectives." The press has been especially enthusiastic in France, where Jade magazine called Boister's debut disc "the album of the decade" and critics lined up to praise the group's subsequent recordings (Song of the Smoke, Pieces of Milk, and Les Foules en Amour), comparing vocalist/keyboardist Anne Watts to the likes of Edith Piaf and Tom Waits.
