Bio / Background
After several months of vigorous work in the studio, the Philadelphia-based pop-rock band grandfabric have just released their first full-length album, Orphan Age, on their own Lark Lane label. The album, which was mixed, engineered, and produced entirely by the band at Indre Studios, is an eclectic mix of songs ranging from pop rock to alt-country rock to indie-like ballads. Imbued with undertones of discordant noise tracks, and modeled in the tradition of groundbreaking bands like Wilco and Pavement, Orphan Age is an ambitious first effort that will draw listeners in with its clever hybrid of melody and arranged deconstruction. A true labor of love, Orphan Age is as much about the making of the album as it is about the songs.
