The French Exit - new NYC band (for fans of Cat Power, PJ)

"Recalling Chan Marshall's collaborations with The Dirty Three, early PJ Harvey and Angelo Badalamenti's soundtrack work for 'Twin Peaks', The French Exit combines the bluesy, smoky songwriting of Chicago native Mia Wilson with the atmospheric and colorful palettes of guitarist Henri Harps and drummer Bryan Sargent (formerly of the math rock trio, Drill For Absentee). Together, the band writes and performs tunes with extreme dynamic shifts of sonic beauty. With a vast array of influences ranging from down home dirty blues to avant-garde jazz, The French Exit explores facets of many genres and brings them together for a sound uniquely their own."
