Vengono da San Francisco, si chiamano The Definite Articles e “King Merriweather” è il titolo del loro album di debutto.
Registrato presso il Tiny Telephone studio, di proprietà di John Vanderslice, con l’ausilio di 30 (!) musicisti, King Merriweather mette in mostra l’enorme talento di Jon Sung, leader della band, sia in fase compositiva sia nell’arrangiamento dei pezzi.
“The instrumentation recorded during the session ultimately comprised 30 musicians, including woodwinds, horns, harp, choir, and a dozen strings. On King Merriweather, the group constructs a swirling, bittersweet tale of love, choice, and regret. Some songs swell to an epic size, others remain small and restrained; all reinforce a set of underlying themes that take multiple listens to fully uncover“.
