A short time ago, Darla Farmer joined forces with Magic Hat Brewing Company and Vancar.tv to put on a full-blown theatrical music show. Initially only viewable to the drunken crowd in attendance, Vancar.tv released the live HD footage of the show in all its glory.
Now the band is releasing the recording of the Magic Hat Brewing Company show, appropriately titled “Live @ Mercy Lounge.” Premiered and featured on AOL’s Spinner.com today, the album is a 13 track trip through the madness that is Darla Farmer, hitting you with big band horn melodies, melancholy violin bridges, fuzz driven guitar breakdowns and throaty screams. With a sound as unique as Darla Farmer’s, it makes the composure of their live set all the more impressive.
Darla Farmer is comparable in some ways to genre trailblazers Cursive and Blood Brothers, but what Darla Farmer shares most with these bands is its own sense of direction and seemingly boundless creativity. Many bands have creative visions, but few execute them live as well as Darla Farmer, and this is clear in “Live at the Mercy Lounge.” Made up of horns, a violin, a piano/organ, bass, guitar, drums and a wildly wielded tambourine, Darla Farmer exhibit some of the many potentials of their eclectic ensemble.
