A Gorgeous "Father's Clothes" recorded at KEXP by Seattle's Grand Hallway

This is a really beautiful song, with a gorgeous arrangement and incredible, delicate work--"Father's Clothes-- by the Seattle band Grand Hallway. It starts off like a perfect and moving Steven Reich or Phillip Glass song, and then after a couple of minutes, the vocals kick in and you are just. . .wow. . . Clarients, 'cello, three violins, piano, guitar, and, oh yeah...an oboe. This was like mindf***er 2010chamber music!

A friend, Jaclyn, is the fiddle player in the grey blouse. If you get the chance (btw, they're in NYC next week), go to one of their shows.
