BAEBLE SESSIONS: The Low Anthem at Baeble's Guest Apartment

We caught the Low Anthem hustling down to Bonnaroo. That alone should serve a pretty solid indication of the promising trajectory this Rhode Island trio appear to be traveling. The other? An incredibly romantic batch of wooded folk tunes titled Oh My God, Charlie Darwin. Nonesuch Records was apparently so impressed with the band's sophomore release they recently decided to remaster/repackage/retouch it for a widespread release.

Pulling the band off the highway, we put the band up in our Guest Apartment. While they were here, Ben Knox Miller, Jeffrey Prystowsky, and Jocie Adams showed off some beautiful instruments (a 100+ year old, a "pocket" pump organ, a set of crotales, a double bass, a clarinet, an alto horn, a pair of cell phones), strolling through a number of tunes from both Charlie Darwin, and its' predecessor What the Crow Brings along the way. Here is the promised performance. - David Pitz
