The Low Anthem – Oh My God, Charlie Darwin

  • July 13, 2009

The Low Anthem’s Nonesuch debut Oh My God, Charlie Darwin alternates between old-timey country, secular gospel and harmonized folk in an album of polished Americana music. Oh My God, Charlie Darwin is a seamless hybrid of old traditions with contemporary aesthetics that sounds at once earthy and ethereal. Multi-instrumentalists Ben Knox Miller, Jeff Prystowsky and Jocie Adams weave together clever acoustic instrumentation with harmonium, harmonica, clarinet, upright bass, banjo, drums and gorgeous vocals. These Providence, RI up-and-comers create tender Americana music that simultaneously makes you smile and cry.
