Surfin’ music: Evil City String Band

One of my all-time favorite ‘contemporary old-timey’ songs, though the minor version halfway through took me by surprise.

They take their name from Ithaca being ironcially crowned as one of nation’s most evil cities during the hysteria of the early ’00s. If you’re brave, you can see them at the Chapter House tonight. (It’s the first weekend with students back in full-force, so wear protective gear.)

Much more old-timey goodness from this set via YouTube.
