Tatters and Rags

About Me

"A lo-fi twang experiment with tinges of psychedelia, they play pastoral sea-side songs layered in textures of feedback, accordion, and viola. A group of scholars, history buffs, international trouble-makers, and former members of the Victoria Lucas."

The band made their live debut on March 6, 2008, opening for The Nightingales and Christy & Emily. Look for a 7" single to be released in the spring.

"...the real draw here hails from, you'll never believe it, Brooklyn. Tatters and Rags deliver a batch of baroque country that catches you off guard. In a good way. hitches baroque pop with country." -- L MAGAZINE

"Titan", performed November 5, 2008 at Cakeshop. Recorded by Joly.
