Weekly Dig Review From 12/21!
January 5th, 2012 by PatrickHere’s a snippet of a great track-by-track review written by Ryan Bray for the Weekly Dig about our For the Sake of the Song presents Music From Big Pink show back on Dec. 21st (full link below):
7. Long Black Veil as performed by Patrick Coman and Autumn Hollow
For The Sake Of Song founder Patrick Coman, not content with simply emceeing the festivities, took the stage to pay his musical respects himself. Backed by the fine fellows in Autumn Hollow, Coman helped deliver one of the more amped up performances of the night, giving the easy going sounds of Long Black Veil a healthy dose of shitkicking alt-country. Probably the best performance of the night thus far….
8. Chest Fever as performed by Patrick Coman and the Lo-Fi Angels
…that is until Coman tooled on Chest Fever. Admitting the song to be his favorite from the album, Coman, now backed by his own band mates in the Lo-Fi Angels, did the song justice by rubbing its nose in some angsty roots rock. It might have just become one of my favorites too.
