' from CDBaby.com With a dirty minimalist sound, San Francisco's Sorrow Town Choir write authentic songs of the "three 'D's", (Dark Beer, Dark Women, and Dark Nights), creating their own idiom of "Deep Crisis Rock."

What is created is a dark, desolate, gypsy carpet ride of striking musical beauty. The songs paint stark emotional images of life and living and dying and beginning, only to turn around to buy you a shot and let you know that tomorrow is another day.

Sorrow Town Choir is a musical cocktail poured from equal parts of Tom Petty, Neil Young, Nick Cave, and Jolie Holland to mention a few; shaken and stirred to perfection. Definitely a departure from the current state of music today, this band is a refreshing dose of real music from real musicians who take the time to craft songs of substance.

As It Should Be, the debut CD of Sorrow Town Choir is the sound that is pushing the envelope of the San Francisco music scene.
