As indie-folk has taken commanding leaps in the modern music landscape, the stage has been set for The Silent Comedy to We’re the first Band of The Month featured artist of 2014. Last week we brought you a first taste with a studio performance of “God Neon,” and today we continue with an uppercut of goodness.
San Diego’s bluegrass-infused, gospel-inspired cabaret rockers, founded in 2006 by brothers Joshua and Jeremiah Zimmerman, specialize in barn-burning intensity in live performance. With the soulful energy of a Southern-Baptist spiritual revival, the band’s early EPs and two studio albums (their debut LP Sunset Stables, and the self-produced sophomore album Common Faults) were met with increasing critical acclaim and an ocean of new fans – helped in no small part by the wide range of style and sound enabled by the Zimmerman brothers’ volleying vocal duties.
Now TSC have an electrifying new EP with Friends Divide (available on iTunes), featuring cohesively stronger musicianship and more evolved songwriting from the brothers Zimmerman, seamlessly excellent drummer Chad Lee and awesomely mustachio’d guitarist Justin Buchanan. Below, check out an exclusive CraveOnstage performance of “Always Two” off Friends Divide, featuring Jeremiah on vocals.
Now check out the official “God Neon” video!
