The Fancy

Artist Description

"For those who've kept the faith in bands with doe-eyed pop instincts and chamber-music instrumentation, New York band The Fancy provides validation."
-the Onion AV Club

"When was the last time you heard a rock band where every song gave prominent roles to bassoon and viola?"

-Peter Margasak, The Chicago Reader


Integrating affection, honesty, and humor into every song, The Fancy is a stand out in the Brooklyn indie rock scene.   Their sound manages to be both eccentric and accessible, featuring atypical instrumentation within an equally unique song-writing setting. They bring this individual style and energy to their Joe's Pub debut on May 9th, 2010.  Classically trained musicians with a love for popular forms, the Fancy merges chamber music and pop sensibilities in their self-titled EP. This 5-track EP overflows with vocal harmony, full-band counterpoint, thick orchestral textures, and tongue-in-cheek lyricism. This special evening will provide a kick-off to the iTunes release of this EP and will feature an opening performance by Corey Dargel, Cornelius Dufallo and a digital looper.
