The Farewell Drifters - Modern Age
With their acoustic instrumentation and the anthemic thrust of their songwriting, the Farewell Drifters find themselves in the midst of what's bound to go down in the annals of popular music history as an era-defining, youthful folk-rock boom. Although they share significant common ground with their folk-rock brethren the Avett Brothers and Mumford & Sons, the Drifters aren't content simply to stomp, strum and sing with gusto. They bring a unique Brian Wilson-like sensibility to the movement, with intricately arranged harmonies and atmospheric, string-swathed studio shading that is newly showcased on Tomorrow Forever, the Nashville-based quartet's fourth album and their first for their new label Compass Records.
When Zach Bevill, brothers Joshua and Clayton Britt and Dean Marold started making music together eight years ago, they aimed for the sweet spot between bluegrass and the Beach Boys' artfully crafted, '60s studio pop. Their crisp, sophisticated arrangements and formidable instrumental prowess quickly made the band a crowd pleaser at multi-generational folk festivals and earned them a presence on Americana radio and Billboard's albums chart; their 2010 release Yellow Tag Mondays debuted at #10 and 2011's Echo Boom debuted at #6.
But, with the release of Tomorrow Forever, the Drifters have delivered their most accomplished and fully developed album to date. The twelve songs demonstrate the band's belief in the value of pop craftsmanship, and that couldn't be further from the rustic, Depression-era musical styles that drove the Mumfords and Avetts of the world to pick up acoustic instruments. Instead, the authenticity that matters the most to the Drifters has nothing to do with eschewing finesse or escaping technology and everything to do with being true to themselves and their musical sensibilities.
