LARRY AND HIS FLASK’s outstanding sophomore album, By The Lamplight, holds true to their reputation for an absolutely foot stomping and hand clapping good time, further spreading the gospel of their infectious and frenetic country/anarchic punk chaos.
For the uninitiated, LARRY AND HIS FLASK make music that lies somewhere between a barn raising and a mosh pit. The New York Times calls them “uncommonly joyous” and “deviously astute”, while their live show is a “breathless, polymorphous good time.” Originally conceived as a four piece punk band, the group has swelled into a fully realized line-up with strong Americana influences complete with stand-up bass, mandolin and banjo. Their live act is not to be missed - performances see members careening wildly across the stage with instruments, narrowly avoiding harrowing collisions amongst themselves, and frequently trading said instruments mid-song while still maintaining pitch-perfect 5-part harmonies.
