The Damn Choir

Add Date: April 6

Artist: The Damn Choir

Album: Faithful Fools

Label: Self-released

Genre: Indie

Comments: Chicago-based The Damn Choir don't cut corners. Here's the story of Faithful Fools, their pretty little record: "Gordon got left / Gordon wrote one thousand songs about how he's sad cause he got left / Gordon met Katy / Gordon and Katy made an album out of twelve of the thousand songs / Gordon played guitar and sang / Katy played the cello / Now there's a whole band called The Damn Choir." Quiet and glum with a tinge of Matt Pond PA charm, some of Gordon's thousand songs are pretty pretty. Start with "Brooklyn."
