From Wikipedia: "The Mountain Goats is a Durham, North Carolina-based band, led by American singer-songwriter John Darnielle. Darnielle began recording in 1991, and is known for his highly literate lyrics and (until 2002) his lo-fi recording style. The Mountain Goats' recent members have comprised the core trio of Darnielle, Peter Hughes on bass guitar, and Jon Wurster on drums."
About Chris Knox: (from Wikipedia) "Chris Knox (born September 2, 1952) is a New Zealand rock and roll musician and cartoonist who emerged during the punk rock era with his bands The Enemy and Toy Love. After Toy Love disbanded in the early 1980s, he formed the group Tall Dwarfs with guitarist Alec Bathgate, much loved for their honest, unpolished sound and intense live shows. His 4-track machine was used to record most of the early Flying Nun singles."
About Dylan Storey: Auckland-based musician, currently playing with a five-piece band.
From Amplifier.co.nz: "Difficult to describe the genre. Some kind of rock, blues, alt-country, psychedelic, pop, I guess."
