FAUN FABLES
Title:
Family Album
Label:
DRAG CITY
Format:
CD
Price:
$13.50
Catalog #:
DC 262CD
"This is the third recording of Faun Fables, the experimental balladry shaped by Oakland-based artist Dawn McCarthy. Her work unfolds in a visceral combination of music and theatricality she calls songtelling. The main instrument is her cathartic voice, framed by harmonically adventurous guitar. On this album, she is joined by Nils Frykdahl of Sleepytime Gorilla Museum, adding a bestiary of vocals, instrumentation and song collaboration.
Family Album
is another prize for fans of traditional folk music, the occult, cabaret, art rock, medieval prose and all the wonders of the world."

Title:
Early Song
Label:
DRAG CITY
Format:
CD
Price:

Catalog #:
DC 273CD
"
Early Song
is the first chapter of Faun Fables. A songbook documenting the material Dawn McCarthy performed and travelled with as a soloist, leaving her work with bands and cabarets of NYC in 1997. It is a testament to the kind of spaciousness and focus McCarthy was seeking back then, amidst the whirlwind and stimuli of big city life. It marks the beginning of her work with stark compositions that give the vocals full sway.
Early Song's
originals were written from 1994 -1998, and the five traditionals included attest to McCarthy's love of folk tunes as vehicles for striking vocal narrative."

The Transit Rider
Label:
DRAG CITY
Format:
CD
Price:
$13.50
Catalog #:
DC 314CD
"This selection of songs draws from a theme that began in 1994 -- when Dawn McCarthy (aka Faun Fables) was introduced to the complete world of the NYC subway in all its repetitious and transient glory and began writing about it. It was made into a full length theater show in 2002 in San Francisco, aided by the inspiration & work of director Allen Willner and a cast of thirteen. Fourth album from Faun Fables."
