Brooklyn Vegan Premieres Figg’s “Black Tar Of Camden Yards”

As Brooklyn Vegan explains, “Figg is the duo of Seattle indie rock vets Robin Peringer (a former member Carissa’s Wierd, Band of Horses, Modest Mouse, 764-HERO, and other bands) and Gilden Tunador (who collaborated with Carissa’s Wierd back in the day), and when live shows start happening again, their live band also includes other former members of Band of Horses (Tim Meinig), Carissa’s Wierd (Sarah Standard), and 764-HERO (Ken Jarvey), as well as Eric Wolfe (Lil’ Champions). As the story goes, they were originally set to release their self-titled debut album back in 2010 but it got shelved.”

It’s taken a while, but the LP is finally available and going for radio spins. BV recently premiered “Black Tar Of Camden Yards,” describing it as “a very lovely dose of chamber pop-informed indie rock that should appeal to fans of any and all of the related bands mentioned above.” Read all about it right here.
