Housing Works Bookstore Cafe on Tumblr

From the band’s name I expected simple folk and was stunned to hear what felt like an entire orchestra pour out of my tiny minivan speaker.

Ari Picker has a knack for creating expansive songs that still remain privately his own. “Red,” from the band’s new album A Church That Fit Our Needs is dramatic and dark without veering into exaggeration or pure macabre.

—Dan Raby, NPR

If this video doesn’t convince you to buy a ticket to next Friday’s show, you… apparently don’t like lovely, unsettling music and I can’t help you. (via Lost In The Trees: ‘Red’ : All Songs Considered Blog : NPR)
