About Me


Farewell Typewriter - "The Golden Kind" @ Cafe du Nord 06.24.07
The members of Farewell Typewriter met at a vacuum cleaner sales conference in Pierre, SD years ago. After a few banana daquiris at the Kings Inn (Carl makes 'em strong!), the boys started jamming on some ukeleles and cigar-box guitars that were in the hotel lobby. Lo and behold, the seeds of the band were planted.
Farewell Typewriter's songs are influenced by music that spans several genres, but contains several key elements: solid melodies, interesting arrangements and memorable sounds. Hopefully you'll find that these all seep through into the band's music.
Farewell Typewriter is ready to make you a fan. Let them know what it takes. If it means being their friend, consider it done. If it means playing in your town, they'll see what they can do. If it involves illegal activity, they'll have to think about it and get back to you. But that doesn't mean you shouldn't listen to their music in the meantime. Because you definitely should.
