Regional Shows Looming

(PR) Brooklyn acoustic folk sextet The Loom has harnessed the emotional power and beauty of ensemble vocals and chiming instruments since 2006, drawing large crowds to their many live shows throughout the NY-area (including three sets during the CMJ Music Marathon this month.)

Now, with the release of its debut EP, the rest of the world can enjoy the group's rich amalgam of folk and alt-country influenced indie rock featuring male and female vocals, acoustic and electric guitars, French horn, trumpet, piano, pedal steel, bass, drums, ukulele, accordion, and banjo. The EP, At Last Light boasts soaring and lilting songs ranging from gentle to anthemic and built around subtle, affecting lyrics. The Loom's sound has often been compared to affecting artists like Smog, Arcade Fire, Fairport Convention and The Waterboys.

In celebration of this release, the band is playing a series of live shows this Fall throughout the NY boroughs, as well as one in Michigan. Please see below for complete dates.
