Upon my fairly new move to south Philly, I have come across a couple of interesting new bands that put a new groove in my step. One band especially has sent me tripping over myself with jolly goodness.
Arrah and the Ferns and Woodlands (her previous,currently reconstructed, and to be named changed band) has brought a new sound to the Philadelphia area. The lead singer, Arrah has come into the Philly scene all the way from Indiana looking forward to a new frontier in music.
Her sounds twinkle wide over the country side right over into the Philadelphia City Skyline. Her voice is Charlyn Marshall from Cat Power with a topping of Jenny Lewis. Traveling along with her is her band mate Carl, playing the Ukulele and any other string instrument you throw at him so you know he's good at his game. Although partners in crime, both are venturing into developing their own bands and branching off to continue the addiction rolling out of Indiana.
