Music Friday: "The God Damn House"

This is a performance by a band I'm not all that familiar with. I downloaded their session with Daytrotter a couple of days ago, and their work is interesting. In some of their songs they seem to be melding folky music with chamber music in a small way.

My only hesitation about this band is that its songs tend to be ballady, slow-coustic affairs. I like those just fine, but I need some up-tempo songs.

But this video is worth watching because of what he does with the two cell phones. As the commenter on YouTube relates, "When they played this song Live in Milwaukee the other night, they asked us to take our cell phones out during the last chorus, and call someone we were standing next to and put our cell phones on speaker phone next to each other. We were all confused at first, but we were all taken by surprise [sic] when it made the most hypnotic sound ever, and went along with the song in such a great way. These guys are beyond amazing."
