Loom, a band I like very much, is playing Sycamore tonight on Cortelyou Road in Ditmas Park. They are a six-piece indie rock band from Brooklyn that features male/female vocals, horns, guitars, banjo, ukulele, keys, and percussion.

They’ve got an unusual sound: early British folk rock with french horn and ukulele. Fairport Convention meets The National. Apparently Loom has completed a full-length album, Teeth.  The new album, currently unreleased, features cover art by Asthmatic Kitty artist DM Stith.  It was recorded in New York at Maverick Studios with producer Allen Farmelo and mastered at Masterdisk studios.

The new material mines a “decidedly louder sonic territory” (according to The New Yorker). 

Sycamore: 1118 Cortelyou Road Brooklyn, NY 11231. T 347-240-5850
