GIANTfingers is a chamber folk-rock quartet featuring Dusty Wright on vocals/guitar, Matt Goeke on cello, Michael Cumella on bass/vocals, and Mark Brotter on drums/percussion.
Influences
From Erik Satie to Johnny Cash, Radiohead to Townes Van Zandt, Grateful Dead to Keith Jarrett, from ragas to pop, from electric to acoustic - the members of GIANTfingers have such musical diversity that they continue to evolve and expand sonically at every rehearsal and performance.
Sounds Like
"From the stark minimalism of 'Tempest' to the more lyrical work around it, the effect on the listener ranges from momentary disorientation to bracing excitement, but it's all really pretty, too, if sometimes stark and bare." AllMusic.com
"An album definitely worthy of investigation by devotees of 16 Horsepower or Tindersticks will find themselves held firmly in the clutch of GIANTfingers." RevolutionsUK.com
