The Daredevil Cristopher Wright

I didn't see those strings coming. I mean, not at all. I saw a bass coming and some brushed drums or something, but that's not what I got. I got piercingly beautiful strings, and then staggering and broken down percussion, then a Destroyer-esque voice, then a glockenspiel, then really catchy call-and-response harmonies. The Daredevil Christopher Wright kind of sounds like a blues band or something, which wouldn't have been my thing, so I'm glad I listened. There's clearly something in the water in Eau Claire, WI. Or maybe it's just that there's nothing else to do except write great songs.

At any rate, people in the western part of the midwest can see the band with another Eau Claire band I quite enjoy called Laarks. The rest of us have to wait, I guess.
