The stalwart lads of Brass Farthing are proud to announce the release of their third CD Plug Nickel. The breakout mostly a cappella music hall group travel across the pond to the Colonies with songs of the sea and traditional Americana as well as original material.
Join the boys as they were meant to be heard - in a pub! Their brand of 19th century music hall humor and 8-and-a-half part harmonies will light up the Plough and Stars as they regale the audience with songs about beer, dogs, love, and more beer.
Now in their sixth year, Brass Farthing are in top form, winning the 2011 Bay Area Harmony Sweeps, performing at the Maker Fair in San Mateo, The Great Dickens Christmas Fair, Gold Rush Days in Old Sacramento, steampunk events and corporate parties throughout Northern California.
Opening the show are the 2nd place winners of the 2012 Bay Area Harmony Sweeps - SOLSTICE, a group of lovely ladies with an eclectic repertoire of classical, pop, folk and jazz specifically written by women or for women’s voices.
