Dark Developments is what you get when you combine the experience and oddness of the singer-songwriter Athens mainstay Vic Chesnutt with the power-pop punch of the underrated Elephant Six rockers Elf Power. Lead singer Andrew Reiger told us about the album during an interview we did with the band during SXSW, and with the album out on the Orange Twin label in mid-October, the two acts have embarked on a U.S. tour that extends to the end of this month.
Dark Developments is fascinating in that it builds upon the work of both artists in a surprising and playful way, but don’t just take our word for it - you can stream the entire album right here. Opening for the two acts at The Parish - a venue where Elf Power previously tore the roof off with an excellent cover of The Bad Brains’ “Pay to Cum” - are Austin’s Sad Accordions, a charming, occasionally melancholy folk six-piece.
