 nt Date End: 2011-10-21\n\nwith Joe Pug\nThe Low Anthem's unique brand of 
 Americana makes room for gospel\, folk\, and blues\, a blend that began ta
 king shape in their hometown of Providence\, RI. Ben Knox Miller and Jeff 
 Prystowsky -- both students at Brown University\, as well as late-night DJ
 s at the school's radio station -- formed the Low Anthem in 2006\, drawing
  upon their background as classical composers to help mold the group's ecl
 ectic music. Jocie Adams joined one year later\, and the group began widen
 ing its arsenal of instruments accordingly\, utilizing everything from Wor
 ld War I pump organs to crotales in the process. After making its independ
 ent debut with 2007's What the Crow Brings\, the band rang in 2008 by temp
 orarily relocating to Block Island -- a remote location 12 miles off the R
 hode Island coast -- to record an album with producer Jesse Lauter. The st
 ark\, serene environment proved to be appropriate for the music\, which th
 e band initially self-released under the title Oh My God\, Charlie Darwin.
 \nAs their buzz continued to build\, the Low Anthem signed a contract with
  Nonesuch Recordings and reissued Oh My God in 2009\, supporting the relea
 se with a string of performances at summer festivals. Multi-instrumentalis
 t Mat Davidson was added to the lineup later that year\, joining the Low A
 nthem's ranks one month before they headed to Central Falls\, RI\, to reco
 rd a third album. Setting up a makeshift studio inside an abandoned pasta 
 sauce factory\, the group recorded Smart Flesh over a period of three mont
 hs\, making good use of the building's carvernous\, resonant spaces. The a
 lbum was released in February 2011. ~ Andrew Leahey\, Rovi\n\nStart time:
