| The Barr Brothers Bring African Rhythms To Mercury Lounge Montreal quartet The Barr Brothers will showcase songs from their self-recorded, s/t debut album (9/27, Secret City) on September 14, 7pm at the Mercury Lounge. Nylon recently described The Barr Brothers' sound as "halfway between Mumford and Sons and The Head and The Heart, " and Under the Radar dubbed them "the MacGyvers of the folk world" due to their mad-scientist approach to instrumentation, which includes an electric toolbox guitar, a hand-made peanut dish banjo, an old air-compressor and a PVC xylophone built by the drummer. write your comments about the article :: © 2011 Jazz News :: home page |
